Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of the erector spinae (ESP) block in
reducing the morphine milligram equivalent (MME) consumption post percutaneous
nephrolithotomy. Objectives:
1. - Determine if there is a significant effect on post percutaneous nephrolithotomy MME
consumption with the usage of an ESP block vs. saline control.
2. - Determine if there is a significant effect on reported pain levels with the use of an
ESP block vs. saline control in post percutaneous nephrolithotomies.
