11. Subjects with refractory hypertension or a history of refractory hypertension before randomization.

12. Combined drugs:

(1) Subjects who allergic to or contraindicated with bupivacaine, other amide local anesthetics, and other drugs that may be used during the trial (e.g., propofol, remazolam, opioids, etc.).

(2) Subjects who used any of the following drugs within 5 drug half-lives prior before randomization (drug half-lives are based on actual drug instructions, or at least 48 hours of elution if half-lives are unknown):

• Class III antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone.

• Drugs that affect liver metabolism: strong CYP1A2 inhibitors such as ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, fluvoxamine; CYP1A2 substrates: such as theophylline, imipramine; Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors such as voriconazole, ketoconazole, Ritonavir; CYP3A4 substrates such as darunavir, Indinavir, saquinavir; Strong CYP3A4 inducers such as rifampin.

• Intravenous or oral corticosteroids.
