What this Trial Is About
The study aimed to assess the efficacy of customized pressure-guided elastic bandages (CPG-EB) in preventing postoperative edema and complications in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) patients. While compression therapy, like compressive stockings, has benefits in preventing edema, concerns about affordability persist. CPG-EB provides optimal sub-bandage pressure, proven effective in venous leg ulcers. Implementing CPG-EB post-CABG could enhance venous blood flow, reducing complications and improving outcomes. Patients were divided into two groups: one with CPG-EB and the other standard post-CABG care. Data collected at 1, 2, and 6 weeks post-surgery assessed swelling and wound complications. Comparative analysis used standardized criteria.
