About this trial
The goal of the surgical correction of scoliosis is to prevent progression of the curve or progression of restrictive lung disease. After scoliosis surgery, patients experience severe pain. The standard treatment for pain relief after scoliosis surgery is the administration of opiates. However, treatment with these substances involves side effects such as respiratory depression, nausea and vomiting, inhibition of bowel activity and itching. To lower the dose of opiates, different types of painkillers and other techniques can be added.
The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of instillation of lidocaine (which is an analgesic and anti-inflammatory) or regional anesthesia using Erector spinae plane on the dose of morphine consumption, the intensity of pain, the side effects and the quality of recovery during the first 48 hours after surgery to repair scoliosis.
