ABSTRACT
Background:
This systematic review explores the impact of cardiac rehabilitation programs (CRPs) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and physiological outcomes post-coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Acknowledging the increasing importance of CRPs in post-CABG care, the study emphasizes the need for a comprehensive evaluation of their effectiveness. The primary objective is to investigate how CRPs influence HRQoL and physiological outcomes in post-CABG patients, offering insights into the multifaceted impact of these rehabilitation programs.Methods:
A systematic literature review approach was employed to identify relevant studies published between 2013 and 2023. Inclusion criteria encompassed clinical randomized trials and quasi-experimental studies, with a focus on CRP interventions and their impact on HRQoL and physiological parameters.Results:
The review reveals a diverse array of CRP approaches, including exercise training, home-based programs, and telemonitored interventions. Despite methodological variations, a consistent positive impact on HRQoL and physiological outcomes is observed across studies. Noteworthy interventions, such as those incorporating family caregivers, demonstrate holistic benefits. However, limitations include methodological variability and the exclusion of qualitative studies.Conclusions:
This systematic review underscores the substantial positive impact of CRPs on HRQoL and physiological outcomes in post-CABG patients. The diverse approaches and consistent improvements across studies provide a robust foundation for healthcare practitioners and researchers. Future efforts should focus on standardizing CRP interventions and conducting well-designed trials to further enhance the evidence base, facilitating more targeted and effective rehabilitation strategies for CABG patients.
