Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare 2 pain control treatments for people with 3 or more rib fractures.
Detailed Description: 2.1 Primary Objective * Compare efficacy of ESPB to TEA for MRF analgesia. 2.2 Secondary Objective * Compare systemic opioid and non-opioid medication use in patients with ESPB and TEA. 2.3 Tertiary/Exploratory/Correlative Objectives * Determine improvement in respiratory function in ESPB versus TEA before and after analgesia placement. * Compare complications that occur in patients who receive ESPB versus TEA. * Compare dermatome levels relative to catheter placement that achieve analgesia for TEA and ESPB. * Compare differences in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis and incidence between ESPB and TEA. * Differences in length of stay (LOS) for TEA versus ESPB. * Differences in risk of delirium between TEA and ESPB. * Differences in oxygen and ventilatory support between TEA and ESPB. * Patient satisfaction of pain management.
