Acute pain after cesarean section (SC) can be variable. Untreated pain can affect patients' life quality. Currently regional nerve blocks are frequently used as a part of multimodal analgesia. Erector spina plane block (ESPB), a recently defined interfacial plane block, provides multisegmental analgesia by spreading to both ventral and dorsal branches of the spinal nerve roots in the cranio-caudal plane with a single injection. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of ESPB on postoperative pain, analgesic use and patient satisfaction in patients delivered by CS under spinal anesthesia.
