dc.description.abstractBackground Persistent low back pain is an important disability after lumbar disc surgery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is highly effective in providing post-surgical pain control, but its effectiveness in long-term persistent low back pain has not been investigated. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to investigate the effect of ESPB on the reduction of persistent low back pain after surgery. Methods 162 patients who were operated for lumbar disc herniation under spinal anaesthesia were divided into two groups according to the following criteria; ESPB block group (Group A); applied before surgery and 1 month after surgery and non-ESPB block group (Group B). The preoperative and postoperative 6th month Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (ODI) and Japan Orthopaedic Association Back Pain Evaluation Questionnaire (JOABPEQ) scores of the patients were evaluated, and it was examined whether there was a difference. Results In two groups with similar patient characteristics and no significant difference in preoperative pain scores, a significant improvement was observed in pain scores in Group A compared to Group B at the end of the 6th month. Conclusions ESPB, which has a low risk of complications and is simple to perform, has been found useful in the treatment of persistent low back pain after disc surgery.
