Abstract :

Cardiac rehabilitation program (CRP) as modification of excercise and education for cardiac patients recover post heart attact, orother cardiac disease or post cardiac surgery significantly decreased cardiovascular risk and efficiently as longterm management ofcoronary revascularization but also underutilized. The objective of this study was to analize the effects of fase II CRP on functionalcapacity of post coronary revascularization patients by using the six minute walk test which is simple and well tolerated test forcardiac patients. Fourty three post coronary revascularization patients were selected for this study. All patients had completerevascularization two month before test. These samples allocated to two groups. Interventional group (n=22, mean age: 58,32 ±6,98years) completed the fase II CRP for 4 weeks but reference group (n= 21, mean age: 59,00 ±6,16 years) didn’t have excerciseprograms. At the beginning of study, functional capacity of patients was evaluated by six minute walk test. After 4 weeks of fase IICRP, functional capacity was evaluated for the second time in each group. Data were analyzed using paired T test statistic analyzisfor comparing first and second six minute walk test and Independent sample T test statistic analyzis for comparing between twogroups. A significant improvement was observed in the interventional group compared to the reference group in walking distance(419,73 ±73,80 m vs 307,24 ± 61,99 m, p<0.001) and also in comparing pre and post-test, a significant changes in both groups wasobserved (p<0.001). Fase II Cardiac Rehabilitation program significantly improves functional capacity and this evolution wasshown by six minute walk test wich is an easy and safe and low cost test. (FMI 2014;50:86-91)
