What this trial studies
This study investigates how cardiac rehabilitation impacts sleep quality and duration in patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). It addresses the significant association between sleep disturbances and coronary artery disease (CAD), highlighting that many patients continue to experience poor sleep even after treatment. The study will include patients aged 40-80 who have undergone CABG and have reported sleep issues, aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation in improving their sleep outcomes.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals aged 40-80 who have undergone CABG and report poor sleep quality.
Not a fit: Patients with sleep apnea, substance dependence, psychological disorders, or uncontrolled cardiac conditions may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved sleep quality and overall recovery for patients after heart surgery.
How similar studies have performed: Previous studies have indicated that cardiac rehabilitation can positively affect various health outcomes, suggesting potential success for this approach.
