Brief Summary

The Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery Intercostal Nerve Block Trial is a single center, double-blind, randomized, active-comparator controlled clinical trial to assess the analgesic efficacy of intercostal nerve block by Liposomal Bupivacaine versus Standard Bupivacaine in subjects undergoing lung resection by robotic or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

Study Arms (2)

Liposomal Bupivacaine

EXPERIMENTAL

5cc of drug preparation will be percutaneously injected into each intercostal space 3-10 under direct intrathoracic vision and subcutaneously into each surgical wound at the conclusion of the surgery. Drug Preparation: 266mg (20cc) Liposomal Bupivacaine admixed with 0.25% (2.5mg/cc) Standard Bupivacaine (maximum dose of 2mg/kg) and varied 0.9% normal saline volume for total volume of 60cc.

Drug: Liposomal bupivacaine

Standard Bupivacaine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

5cc of drug preparation will be percutaneously injected into each intercostal space 3-10 under direct intrathoracic vision and subcutaneously into each surgical wound at the conclusion of the surgery. Drug Preparation - 0.25% (2.5mg/cc) Standard Bupivacaine (maximum dose of 2mg/kg) admixed with varied 0.9% normal saline volume for total volume of 60cc.

Drug: Bupivacaine Injection

Interventions

5cc of drug preparation will be percutaneously injected into each intercostal space 3-10 under direct intrathoracic vision and subcutaneously into each surgical wound at the conclusion of the surgery.
