Participant milestones

Participant milestones
Measure
Unrestricted Fentanyl
Will receive injection of sterile saline (2cc) in lower back area (to minimize participant bias) and unrestricted amount of intraoperative opioids (fentanyl) at the discretion of the Anesthesiologist. Both groups will receive General Anesthesia with volatile agents and single dose of iv Tylenol intraoperatively. Both groups of patients will be transported to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on Dexmedetomidine (dose range 0.25 - 0.7 mcg/kg/hr). Dose titration is based on sedation level and hemodynamic goals set by Cardiac Anesthesiologist. Unrestricted Fentanyl: No changes to current practices, using unlimited narcotic medications intraoperatively.
Lidocaine, Dexmedetomidine and Ketamine
Will receive pre-operative spinal duramorph (4mcg/kg up to max dose of 300mcg), intra-operative intravenous (iv) infusion of Ketamine (0.4 mg/kg/hr), Lidocaine (20 mcg/kg/min) and Dexmedetomidine (0.25 mcg/kg/hr) started after induction of General Anesthesia and maintained through the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) towards the end of surgery. At this point all infusions will be turned off except Dexmedetomidine. The total intraoperative fentanyl dose will be limited to \<250mcg (or 3mcg/kg) and total midazolam to ≤ 2mg in the study group.
