Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of using walking aid during out-of-bed mobilization of patients who underwent open coronary artery bypass graft surgery on levels of pain and mobility. The main hypotheses are:

1. The pain level of patients using walking aid is lower than that of those who do not.
2. The mobility level of patients using walking aid is higher than that of those who do not.

Participants will be asked to walk with using a walking aid during the first three mobilizations in the intensive care unit on the first postoperative day.

Conditions
