- Abstract
The article responds to a study on ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for rib fractures, emphasizing multimodal pain management following EAST guidelines, including IV acetaminophen's role in moderate to severe pain alongside NSAIDs' benefits. It notes a lack of literature on repeated IV acetaminophen dosing, suggesting its potential as an adjunct but clarifying its limited comparison to fentanyl and tramadol.
