What this Trial Is About
Researchers are studying which performance-based functional outcome test is most important for improving function after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. This study focuses on the four tests: Time Up and Go test, Five Times Sit to Stand test, 2 Minute Walk test, and 6 Minute Walk test. The goal is to identify which test best reflects recovery and functional improvements in patients after CABG surgery, helping guide rehabilitation programs. Participants aged 30 to 50 years who have undergone CABG surgery will receive physiotherapy sessions on postoperative days 1 and 2. These sessions include bed mobility exercises, breathing exercises, chest physical therapy, and progressive activities like sitting, walking, and stair climbing under supervision. Functional tests will be performed twice on postoperative days 3 and 5, with a minimum 6-hour gap between tests to support recovery and test reliability. During the study, participants will have their vital signs measured before and after each test and will complete questionnaires about their test outcomes. The primary outcomes include the results of the four functional tests performed twice with 6-hour intervals. This approach aims to measure functional improvements and provide evidence for the best test to assess recovery after CABG surgery. The study is expected to last until April 2026.
