  2. Functional Capacity Outcomes following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

    The objective of this study was to determine if this is possible to predict 3 mo post-CABG treadmill VO2pk outcomes from a combination of pre-surgical physical fitness and health and clinical status variables. To determine the VO2pk, subjects performed a maximal treadmill test using a ramp protocol …

  3. Cardiopulmonary Predicators of Dysfunctional Ventilator Weaning Response after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

    <p>Although the majority of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery patients are extubated within 6 to 8 hours following surgery, 20% to 40% of patients remain intubated 12 hours after surgery due to dysfunctional ventilator weaning response (DVWR). DVWR associated with increased morbidity and …

  7. The Relationship between Coping, Anxiety, and Quality of Life for Taiwanese Post-Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Patients

    Coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG) is a stressful event and requires coping strategies to achieve adaptation. In Taiwan, despite the fact that the incidence of CABG is increasing in both men and women, research on post-CABG adaptation is very limited and no research focuses on outcomes …

This sleep disturbance, at least in theory, might retard or limit the return of functionality and exacerbate psychological states known to increase use of health care services and adversely affect prognosis. This study …

  9. The effects of preconditioning coronary artery disease patients with hyperbaric oxygen prior to coronary artery bypass graft surgery & cardiopulmonary bypass

    IntroductionCoronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is associated with periods of ischaemia and reperfusion, which may lead to myocardial dysfunction. In clinical studies, hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) treatment following an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), has been shown to limit myocardial injury and …
