Key result
Carotid artery involvement links to ~88% lower odds of performing ADLs one month post-CABG.
Why the study?
Obese or overweight patients are more prone to complications after CABG that affect postoperative ADLs and IADLs, but the factors predicting these abilities remained to be determined.
What factors predict ADLs and IADLs in obese and overweight patients one month after CABG surgery?
Population
84 overweight and obese patients one month after CABG
Design

May inform risk stratification for functional recovery after CABG in obese patients; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.
Cross-Sectional (n=84)
What factors predict ADLs and IADLs in obese and overweight patients one month after CABG surgery?
Odds Ratio: 10.51 (95% CI 2.15–15.41)
p-value: p=0.004
Male gender and carotid artery involvement are significant predictors of functional independence in instrumental activities of daily living among obese and overweight patients recovering from CABG.
Paryad et al. (2020) conducted a cross-sectional in Obesity and overweight after CABG (n=84). Male gender and carotid artery involvement was evaluated on Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs) (OR 10.51, 95% CI 2.15-15.41, p=0.004). Male gender (OR 10.51; 95% CI 2.15-15.41) and carotid artery involvement (OR 0.12; 95% CI 0.02-0.64) were significant predictors of daily and instrumental living activities one month after CABG.
