Title: Multimodal Opiate-sparing Analgesia Versus Traditional Opiate Based Analgesia After Cardiac Surgery, a Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief Summary: To test if multimodal analgesia with different analgesic medication offer better pain relief, lesser side effects and is safe compared to conventionel opiod analgesia after cardiac surgery.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* age\>18
* any cardiac procedure with sternotomy
* able to give informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

* cardiac surgery without sternotomy

* neurological disease
* psychiatric illness

* chronic pain (i.e. back pain, cancer, arthritis)
* serum creatinine \>150 μmol/l
* hepatic disease with elevated liver enzymes (SGPT and SGOT elevated to 1.5 times maximum normal value)
* allergic to study medication
* alcohol abuse
* abuse of narcotics or medication
* pregnancy
* participation in other clinical trials
* insufficient language skills
* In addition intensive care unit (ICU) stay for more than 24 hours was used as a pre-defined post randomization exclusion criteria, because prolonged ICU stay and ventilator treatment would interfere with study analgesic protocol.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Are undergoing noncardiac surgery;
2. Are ≥ 45 years of age;
3. Are expected to require at least an overnight hospital admission after surgery; AND
4. Fulfill one or more of the following 5 criteria:

   * History of coronary artery disease

     * history of congestive heart failure
     * transient ischemic attack
     * diabetes and currently taking an oral hypoglycemic agent or insulin
     * age ≥ 70 years
     * hypertension
     * serum creatinine \> 175 µmol/L (\> 2.0 mg/dL)
     * history of smoking within 2 years of surgery
     * undergoing urgent/emergent surgery

12. Planned use - during the first 3 days after surgery - therapeutic dose anticoagulation or a therapeutic subcutaneous or intravenous antithrombotic agent
13. Undergoing intracranial surgery, carotid endarterectomy, or retinal surgery
14. Not consenting to participate in POISE-2 prior to surgery
15. Previously enrolled in POISE-2 Trial

1. Be unable to make a reliable self-report of pain intensity to pain relief
2. Less than 18 years of age
3. Greater than 70 years of age
4. Use of NSAIDs within 12 hours prior to dosing
5. Use of analgesics, muscle relaxants and sedatives less than 24 hours prior to CTM administration with the following exceptions: paracetamol (acetaminophen) can be administered until 6 hours prior to surgery; tramadol can be administered until midnight the evening prior to surgery; muscle relaxants working at the neuromuscular junction used for intubation and/or anesthesia administration for the surgical procedure prior to CTM administration; and sedatives (i.e., midazolam) used as a co-induction agent for the surgical procedure prior to CTM administration
6. Patients taking warfarin, lithium, combination of ACE-inhibitors and furosemide
7. Patients with anemia (active clinically significant) and/or a history or evidence of asthma or heart failure
