Summary

During the last twenty years heart surgery has become safer and the number of patients having heart surgery has increased with more frail patients being offered increasingly complex surgery. Heart operations often improve survival and quality of life (QoL), but that is not true for all patients. Regarding survival, clinicians can measure the risk to life from having a heart operation and the risk to life from not quite precisely, but clinicians have little idea about the impact of heart operations on QoL, which is the outcome that patients care about most. Clinicians are unable to provide patients with robust information on how an operation will affect their QoL. This study will provide this information by analysing the data from patient questionnaires immediately before and after the procedure and monthly thereafter for 12 months.
