Continuous erector spinae plane (ESP) analgesia is a common adjuvant for patients with traumatic rib fracture pain and success relies on the ESP catheter remaining within the correct fascial plane for the duration of its placement. However, knowledge on postplacement position of indwelling ESP catheters is largely absent. We hypothesized that migration of over-the-needle ESP catheters was common and detectable with coincidental postprocedure CT.
