Key result
The first phase of a cardiac rehabilitation program significantly increased total self-efficacy scores at 1 month post-discharge compared to routine care (137.20 vs 111.70, p<0.001).
Why the study?
Does the first phase of a cardiac rehabilitation program improve self-efficacy in post-CABG patients?

Comparison
First phase of a cardiac rehabilitation program… vs Control group (standard care implied).

p-value: p=<0.001
Implementation of the first phase of a cardiac rehabilitation program significantly improves self-efficacy in patients following CABG surgery.
Borzou et al. (2018) conducted an RCT in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Surgery (n=60). First phase of cardiac rehabilitation program vs. Routine care and therapy was evaluated on Total self-efficacy score at 1 month after discharge (p=<0.001). The first phase of a cardiac rehabilitation program significantly increased total self-efficacy scores at 1 month post-discharge compared to routine care (137.20 vs 111.70, p<0.001).
