Abstract

Continuous regional analgesia techniques for ambulatory management of postoperative thoracic and abdominal wall pain are limited. We report the placement of an erector spinae plane (ESP) catheter in a pediatric patient who underwent rib resection for slipping rib syndrome and was discharged on postoperative day 1 with an elastomeric pump for continued regional analgesia in the ambulatory setting. The patient required minimal opioids while the catheter was in place and experienced a functional level that surpassed her preoperative state. Ambulatory ESP peripheral nerve catheters are a feasible and potentially effective option for the treatment of acute postsurgical pain in children.
