The second coffee will be scheduled according to the participant's surgery time, individual preferences, and sleep patterns, taking into account the 3-9 hour half-life of caffeine. Participants will be given coffee two more times in the following 24-hour period. Thus, participants will consume coffee four times in 48 hours.
