Summary

Postoperative pain and swallowing disorders are complex, multifactorial phenomenon that frequently occur after cardiac surgery. Preoperative anxiety and the interaction between sex and other sociocultural factors may predict greater sensitivity to postoperative pain, whereas the epidemiology and course of swallowing disorders has not been systematically investigated, along with the interaction between dysphagia, post-operative pain and emotional stress. Cardiac rehabilitation is a multifunctional intervention which may address all these functional domains, improving patients' prognosis.

The aim of the present study is to demonstrate the superiority of a multifunctional approach (OMT, systematic swallowing screening and specific treatment according to good clinical practice associated with psychological counseling) compared to local clinical practice in the management of pain and swallowing disorders.
