Brief Summary
Postoperative sedation is an essential component in recovery of the patient undergoing cardiac surgery. It facilitates the patient's unawareness of the environment as well as reduce the discomfort and anxiety caused by surgery, intubation, mechanical ventilation, suction, and physiotherapy. Despite the advances in anesthesia and surgical techniques, the duration of mechanical ventilation (MV) may be prolonged after cardiac surgery, due to the classic high-dose narcotic-based cardiac anesthesia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Pain Relieve
Assessment of the pain post-operatively in patients with pain score by VAS as : Total scores vary from 0 to 10 in this method, with a higher score indicating more severe pain
2 hours post operative
Study Arms (2)
Dexmedetomidine Group
EXPERIMENTALThis Group about 30 patients will receive a loading dose of 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine (Precedex 4 mcg/ml, Pfizer. Inc, New York, USA) diluted in 100 ml 0.9% saline infused over 10 min immediately postoperative, followed by continuous infusion of 0.2-0.7 μg/kg/h.
Fentanyl Group
EXPERIMENTALThis Group about 30 patients will receive an initial bolus dose of fentanyl (fentanyl 50 mcg/ml, hameln; Netherlands) of 1-2 μg/kg, followed by an infusion at an initial rate of 1 to 2 μg/kg/h.
Interventions
to investigate the postoperative analgesic-sedative effect of dexmedetomidine versus fentanyl-midazolam to achieve fast-track extubation after adult valvular cardiac surgeries.
