Quality of life 5 years after cardiac surgery: Preoperative and Postoperative status . International Journal of Advances in Health Sciences. 2024 Aug; 11(4): 16-242349-7033https://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/244763A prospective cohort research in Maharashtra state, India, assessed changes in quality of life (QoL) following cardiovascular surgery at two major hospitals. Par璽icipated in a study about five years earlier, Data were collected from Jan-2018 to Feb-2023. All willing participants aged 45 to 75 years old with a CAD diagnosis, who could speak and read local/English and were scheduled to have CABG surgery, were invited to participate in a patient-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment. Among 175 patients enrolled total participants were 150, aged 45 to 75 undergoing scheduled cardiac surgery during the study period. The characteristics of the study population are shown in Table 1. The patient flow through the study is outlined in Figure 1. All responders are male patients, The mean age when responding was 61.2. Health-related characteristics of the participants (N = 150) five years after coronary artery bypass graft surgery stated in table3. Health-related characteristics of the participants (N = 150) five years after coronary artery bypass graft surgery, the stress, exercise and perceived health status was improved, the reduced counts of patients numbers shown in case of habits i.e. Smoking and Drinking, than the preoperative health status. Our findings indicate that the physical and mental component of QoL improves considerably up to 5 years following surgery. A questionnaire-based study will not identify all concerns experienced by the patients. Therefore, more information might be obtained by further studies using other designs such as qualitative interview techniques.Quality of lifecardiac surgeryphysical and mental componentcoronary artery bypassCABGpost-CABJournal ArticleIndiaDepartment of General Medicine, Dr. N.
