Brief Summary: Participants who have a surgical procedure called Posterior Cervical neck Spine Fusion will normally need pain medication to relieve post operative pain This usually includes opioid medications In this study the consented participant may receive a nerve block procedure in addition to the pain relieving medication There is a fifty-fifty chance to receive the nerve block The goal is to see if the nerve block group needs less opioid medication has lower pain scores and is discharged from the hospital sooner
Detailed Description: The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the opioid-sparing effect of the use of an Inter-semispinalis plane ISP block after posterior cervical spine fusion surgery

Posterior cervical fusion PCF is a painful procedure that often requires the use of high doses of opioids to minimize postoperative pain Uncontrolled pain can result in a delay in recovery and discharge Additionally high doses of opioids carry the risk of opioid dependence and other side effects include nausea vomiting sedation and in rare cases respiratory depression For all of the above reasons reducing the use of opioids is of utmost importance

Nerve blocks are one alternative to opioid use The ISP block is a procedure described in 2017 it is a relatively simple procedure that entails injecting local anesthetic between two muscles in the back of the neck bilaterally to block the nerves that run in this plane It is done under ultrasound guidance and although a limited number of studies have shown promise more data on its safety and efficacy are needed The addition of Dexamethasone to local anesthetics in nerve blocks resulted in significant prolongation of the analgesia
