Abstract: As a result of increasing incidence of coronary artery diseases (CAD), the use of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) has increased. But it still remains that CABG surgery is not a cure for CAD. Many factors are considered to effect the physical aspect in patient’s life as an impact of the surgery.
Objective: The study aims to assess the patient’s physical aspects related to coronary artery diseases and to find out the relationship between patients’ physical aspects and their certain demographic characteristics such as ( age, gender, marital status, and smoking).
Methodology: A descriptive analytical study was conducted on Non-probability (purposive sample) of (100) patients who had done a coronary artery bypass graft surgery in one of Baghdad cardiac centers (Ibn Al-Bitar specialized center for cardiac surgery and Iraqi center for heart diseases). A questionnaire was used as a tool of data collection for the period of 22th March to 10th May 2015. Descriptive statistical analyses were used to analyze the data.
Results : The results of the study indicated that (68%) of the study sample were male, their advance age ≤ 60 years (36%), living in rural areas (69%), smokers (80%), approximately (72%) of study sample presented with a history of chronic disease (diabetes mellitus and hypertension), and more than (74%) of the study sample had developed moderate complications that required a (4-6) day period in surgical ward.
Conclusions: There was a significant association between patient’s physical aspect and some socio-demographic characteristics (age, marital status, level of education, occupation, and smoking).
Recommendations: The study recommended that current strategies used to prevent this problem may not be as effective as previously thought and new approaches are needed to minimize these effects. There is a need to find the suitable CABG model that helps improve patient’s general health and minimize the restricts in his physical activity post-operatively.
