Quality of life in short time changes after coronary artery bypass graft surgery / 实用医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the quality of life at baseline and at 3 months after coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) and investigate the related risk factors. Methods The prospective study included 121 consecutive patients reaching inclusion criteria and undergoing CABG between June 2009 and May 2016. Health status survey was measured with short form-36(SF-36)at baseline and at 3 months after CAGB. Change of quality of life and influencing factors and quality of life were analyzed. Results Eight domains including physical functioning ,role-physical ,bodily pain,general health,vitality,social functioning,role-emotional and mental health and two component summaries including physical component summary(PCS)and mental component summary (MCS)of SF-36 were significantly improved at 3 months following CAGB(all P<0.01). Moreover,advanced age, women,diabetes mellitus,assisted ventilation time,hospital stay and use of t-PA were relative to the PCS after CAGB. Conclusions The findings demonstrate quality of life is significantly improved at 3 months post CAGB. Advanced age,underlying disease,serious disease,women and lower PCS score prior to CAGB are linked with low PCS after CAGB.
