The aim of this study is to compare and evaluate the analgesic effects of ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane block using low volumes and high concentrations versus high volumes and low concentrations in patients undergoing MRM.
Multiple regional techniques have been developed in recent years for postoperative analgesia of breast surgery including ESPB aiming to be effective and associated with less complications when compared to the gold standard techniques (thoracic epidural analgesia or paravertebral block)..
Ultrasound guided erector spinae plane (ESPB) block was described in 2016 as a novel regional anesthetic technique for acute and chronic thoracic pain, it has been used as a regional anesthetic technique for breast surgery based on case reports and case series. It is a paraspinal fascial plane block that involves injection of local anesthetic deep in the erector spinae muscle and superficial to the tips of the thoracic transverse processes. The site of injection is distant from the pleura, major blood vessels, and spinal cord; hence, performing the ESPB has relatively few contraindications. The injected local anesthetic drug blocks the ventral and dorsal rami of spinal nerves on the paravertebral area .
Multiple studies have reported improved efficiency of interfascial blocks by increasing the volume of injection promoting better spread of local anesthesia. According to the authors best knowledge there is no studies comparing different volumes and concentration in ESPB in patients undergoing MRM This study aims to see the effect of fixing the drug mass of anaesthetic given in both groups, while altering the concentration of the anesthetic and total volume administered. One group will receive a lower concentration and higher volume, while the other will receive a higher concentration and lower volume.

We hypothesize that high volume low concentration ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane block is going to be more effective than low volume high concentration in patients undergoing MRM. Many authors advocate increasing the volume of injection in fascial plane blocks to allow better spread of local anesthetic according to multiple studies
