Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are part the multimodal strategy in pain management after surgery. However, major concerns are raised in cardiac surgery given the potential side effects of NSAID with more bleeding and acute kidney injury. The investigators hypothesized that NSAID are safe in the early postoperative course after cardiac surgery with respect to contraindication.

RECRUITINGreduction in pain intensity during chest physiotherapy at 24 hours from the end of surgery
Pain intensity will be assessed using the NRS at 24 hours from the end of surgery during chest physiotherapy
Time frame: at 24 hours
NSAIDs reduce postoperative at rest at 24 hours from the end of surgery
Pain intensity will be assessed at rest at 24 hours from the end surgery using the numerous rating scale (NRS) graded from 1 (no pain) to 10 (high pain intensity)
Time frame: at 24 hours
