NCT05487339

Brief Summary

The primary endpoint of this study was to identify if eretor spinae plane block (ESPB) has any effect in relieving low back pain or leg pain in lumbar radiculopathy. The secondary endpoint was to compare the number of spread level when upper or lower lumbar ESPB was performed.
