Implication

Systematic review finds ultrasound-guided ESPB lowers opioid consumption and pain scores in metabolic surgery patients, suggesting it may enhance postoperative care.

Key Points

ESPB significantly reduced 24 h opioid consumption after metabolic surgery, improving recovery outcomes.
Meta-analysis of 10 RCTs showed that ESPB lowered resting pain scores at 24 h post-surgery.
Patients receiving ESPB experienced delayed need for rescue analgesics, indicating better pain management.
No notable differences were found in postoperative nausea and vomiting or patient satisfaction scores.
