Summary

This study addresses articles and studies related to the erector spinae plane (ESP) block and its technique, advantages and disadvantages, applicability, among others. It aims to provide more information about this block, which is relatively new, and how it can be explored in the anesthesiologist's routine, mainly inserted in the anesthesia scenario for cardiac surgery with a focus on postoperative analgesia.
