abstract background: different modes of mechanical ventilation are used for respiratory support after coronary artery bypass graft (cabg). this study aimed to compare the effect(s) of using adaptive support ventilation (asv) and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (simv) on the length of mechanical ventilation (intubation duration) and hospital stay after coronary artery bypass graf...

conclusions in our patients, the ra grafts had an acceptable patency rate in 2 to 5 years’ follow-up. although the sv grafts had a relatively higher patency rate than ra grafts in our asymptomatic patients, the patency rates in ra and sv grafts were close to each other. the ra graft function was poor in the patients with a higher number of risk factors and in the females. background patency of ...

Objectives: The objectives of this post hoc analysis was to describe the characteristics of cardiopulmonary indicators among patients with normal ventilator weaning response and dysfunctional ventilator weaning response after coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and to find the differences in characteristics of cardiopulmonary indicators between patients with normal ventilator weaning response...

background: patients with psychological problems after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (cabg) show poorer outcomes; nevertheless, there is a paucity of research into the effects of cardiac rehabilitation programs on such patients. the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of phase iii cardiac rehabilitation programs on the anxiety and quality of life of anxious patients who had...
