    Coronary artery bypass surgery and ventricular aneurysmectomy improved exercise performance and functional capacity in most patients. Post-surgery improvements were observed in exercise duration, work capacity, and New York Heart Association classification.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Cardiac Surgery
    • Exercise Physiology

    Background:

    • Coronary artery disease often necessitates surgical intervention.
    • Ventricular aneurysmectomy addresses structural heart abnormalities.
    • Assessing functional recovery post-cardiac surgery is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the impact of coronary artery bypass surgery and ventricular aneurysmectomy on patient exercise performance.
    • To assess changes in functional capacity and New York Heart Association classification after these procedures.

    Main Methods:

    • Pre- and post-operative exercise testing was conducted.
    • Evaluated parameters included exercise performance, double product, work capacity, and exercise duration.
    • New York Heart Association functional classification was assessed.

    Main Results:

    • Most patients demonstrated enhanced exercise performance and increased exercise duration post-surgery.
    • Improvements in double product and work capacity were noted.
    • A majority of patients showed an improved New York Heart Association functional classification.

    Conclusions:

    • Coronary artery bypass surgery combined with ventricular aneurysmectomy leads to significant functional improvements.
    • Ventricular aneurysmectomy alone also appears to positively impact exercise capacity.
    • Surgical interventions can effectively enhance quality of life and physical function in cardiac patients.
