Summary

Based on clinical experience both physical condition and psychological recovery after surgery are individually variable. Exercise training plays an important part, has been recommended for CABS patients in order to enhance recovery. Regular exercise following CABS has shown that, in addition to the expected improvements in exercise capacity as a result of the surgery itself, patients who participate in cardiac rehabilitation can expect to see additional gains in exercise capacity and risk factor profiles. Exercise training also increases personal self-esteem and self-confidence, can alleviate depression and fear, and increase the sense of well-being. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of supervised aerobic exercise training on pulmonary function, functional capacity, maximal exercise capacity, and anxiety in patients after coronary artery bypass surgery.

Conditions

  • Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Interventions

OTHER

Chest physiotherapy

The program included diaphragmatic breathing exercises, thoracic expansion exercises, incentive spirometer exercises, and coughing techniques.

OTHER

Aerobic exercise training

A treadmill was used for aerobic exercise. Training intensity was used at 60-75% of maximal VO2. Each session had a five-minute warm-up and cool-down period. Blood pressure and ECG were recorded during training sessions before exercise, at the third minute of each workload, after exercise, and during each minute of the recovery period.
