Registry summary
A review of the literature suggests that high-intensity intermittent inspiratory muscle training (IMT) combined with the Otago exercise program may provide positive effects on early post-discharge recovery of patients aged 65 years and older undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. No studies have yet examined the effects of high-intensity intermittent IMT combined with the Otago exercise program on patients undergoing CABG surgery. This study is the first to evaluate the effects of high-intensity intermittent IMT combined with the Otago exercise program on pulmonary function, functional capacity, muscle strength, functional mobility, balance, anxiety and depression levels, frailty, and quality of life in elderly patients undergoing CABG surgery.
