If adequate an analgesic treatment is not administered, respiratory complications, need for mechanical ventilation, and length of stay in intensive care unit may increase. Erector spinal plane (ESP) block is a regional unaesthetic method that can provide effective analgesia in the unilateral thoracic region.
