Why the study?
The study evaluated 1-year outcomes after CABG, quality of life trajectories, and factors influencing health components in elderly patients with ischemic heart disease.
Does coronary artery bypass grafting improve physical and mental quality of life at 1 year in elderly patients with ischemic heart disease?
Observational (n=90)
Does coronary artery bypass grafting improve physical and mental quality of life at 1 year in elderly patients with ischemic heart disease?
In elderly patients undergoing CABG, one-year survival is high and mental quality of life improves, but physical quality of life remains unchanged and is negatively impacted by postoperative complications.
CABG may improve mental but not physical quality of life in elderly patients; leaves open need for randomized confirmation before practice change.
