Summary

This study evaluates the effect of using remifentanil during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery to supress the hyperglycemic response in perioperative period. Half of the participants will receive continuous intravenous remifentanil during surgery, while the other half will receive intermittent intravenous fentanyl during surgery. Intermittent intravenous fentanyl administration is this institution's standard of care.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Remifentanil

Subjects in the experimental group will receive remifentanil infusion 0.1-0.4ug/kg/minute before induction of anesthesia and continued until skin closure. During cardiopulmonary bypass, remifentanil infusion will be increased to 0.5-1 ug/kg/min as hemodynamically tolerated.

DRUG

Fentanyl

Subjects in the control group will initially receive intermittent boluses of Fentanyl in the range of 50-250 ug. Additional fentanyl can be given titrated to hemodynamic parameters throughout surgery.
