Patients in the standard therapy arm will emerge from the procedure with a chest tube while the intervention arm will have both a chest tube and a tunnelled catheter. In the standard therapy arm, the chest tube will be removed when there is no further air leak and when drainage drops to ≤ 150 ml/day. After chest tube removal, the patient is fit for discharge. In the intervention arm, the chest tube is removed when air leak stops. There will be no need to wait for fluid drainage to decrease and theoretically, the patient can go home on day 3 or 4 with the tunnelled pleural catheter.
