  ABSTRACT: Since the original publication on the erector spinae plane (ESP) block in 2016, the technique of the ESP block has evolved significantly in the last few years. This review highlights recent developments in the technique for administering the ESP block and proposes directions for future research. Continuous efforts are being aimed at improving understanding regarding the administration of the ESP block. Current reports suggest that the ESP block provides effective analgesia in thoracic and abdominal sites in patients of all ages. However, no cohort studies or randomized controlled trials were performed in 2016 and 2017. The ESP block is an effective analgesic tool in a wide range of sites. However. We are uncertain how effective the ESP block is compared to other types of regional anesthesia. Therefore, more research on ESP blocks is required.
