CABG significantly improves subjective perceptions of physical and psychological well-being, including mood, vitality, and physical/social functioning, up to 3 months post-surgery, though socioeconomic satisfaction may decrease.
Ross et al. (2001) conducted an observational in Coronary artery disease. Coronary artery bypass surgery was evaluated on Quality of life and mood state (Quality of Life Index, SF-36, Profile of Mood States). Coronary artery bypass surgery was associated with significant improvements in mood state (P=0.03), physical functioning (P=0.004), vitality (P=0.007), and social functioning (P=0.002) at 3 months.
