Health-related quality of life after coronary artery bypass grafting. The impact of a randomised controlled home-based intervention program

Abstract

HRQoL after CABG improved markedly over time, but no significant or clinically important differences were found when compared with controls. Thus, work to further develop and test the effect of a HBIP on HRQoL in patients undergoing rehabilitation following CABG is warranted.

Quality of life after cardiac surgery: underresearched research

“…Only three studies start with a description of the initial group of patients, although none of these studies provides information about the operative risk and/or preoperative QoL of the patients who were not included [19,22,29]. The three studies do show that the group of patients that was actually studied is only a small part of the number of patients who could have been included in the study [19]: 168/256 (65%), six months' follow-up; [22]: 120/206 (58%), three months' follow-up; [29]: 185/422 (44%), six months' follow-up).…”

Effect of patient education in the management of coronary heart disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

“…Three studies involved group-based sessions, 22 25,37,39,43 Ten studies involved face-to-face sessions, 22,23,25,28,30,35,37,39,42,44 three were reliant on telephone contact, 30,31,41 and one involved interactive use of the Internet. 43 The intensity of the education varied substantially from a total of two visits by a healthcare professional 35,39 to a 4-week residential stay reinforced with 11 months of nurse led follow-up sessions. 37 Control group patients typically received usual care that consisted of accepted current medical therapy practiced at that institution, (e.g.…”

“…Therefore, we extracted data on the overall drop out rate at follow up. 23,25,28,31,35,39,43,44 There was no difference between the groups in pooled overall drop outs (RR 1.03, 95% CI 0.83 to 1.27, p ¼ 0.80; Figure 2e). …”

Relations entre le soutien aux besoins d'autonomie et de compétence par la famille, la motivation autodéterminée spécifique à l'activité physique et à l'alimentation saine et la santé psychologique de patients coronariens du Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean /

“…Alors que certaines ont évalué spécifiquement la qualité de vie reliée à la santé (Aparecida Spadoti Dantas & Aparecida Ciol, 2008;Lie, Arnesen, Sandvik, Hamilton, & Bunch, 2009;Martin et al, 2007;Mûller-Nordhorn et al, 2004;Noms & King, 2009;Rantanen et al, 2008Rantanen et al, , 2009Van Jaarsveld, Sanderman, Miedema, Ranchor, & Kempen, 2001;Unsar, Sut, & Durna, 2007;Worcester et al, 2007), d'autres ont plutôt mesuré de façon conjointe la qualité de vie reliée à la santé et la santé psychologique (soit la dépression et/ou l'anxiété) chez ces patients (Beck, Joseph, Belisle, & Pilote, 2001;Burg, Benedetto, Rosenberg, & Soufer, 2005;De Jonge, Spijkerman, van den Brink, & Ormel, 2006;Faller et al, 2007;Fauerbach et al, 2005;Goyal, Idler, Krause, & Contrada, 2005;Gravely-Witte, De Gucht, Heiser, Grace, & Van Elderen, 2007;Hôfer et al, 2005;Lane, Carroll, Ring, Beevers, & Lip, 2001;Mallik et al, 2005;Mayou et al, 2000;Perski et al, 1998;Reid, Tueth, Handberg, & Nyanteth, 2006;Ruo et al, 2003;Spertus, McDonell, Woodman, & Fihn, 2000;Sullivan, LaCroix, Baum, Grothaus, & Katon, 1997;Tully, Baker, Turnbull, Winefield, 20 & Knight, 2009;Volz et al, 2011). De façon sommaire, ces études font ressortir que plusieurs sphères de la qualité de vie reliée à la santé subissent des dommages importants et que l'anxiété et la dépression sont associées négativement à la qualité de vie reliée à la santé chez les patients coronariens.…”
