Purpose: Exercise capacity is associated with diastolic function. The aim of our study is to investigate the short-term effects of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation and NMES on functional capacity and myocardial tissue doppler (MTD) after coronary artery surgery. Methods: Forty patients with coronary artery bypass graft were randomly divided into two groups: CPR+NMES and CPR. Functional capacity were analyzed through 2 minutes walk test (2MWT) and sit to stand test (SST), left ventricular (LV) diastolic functions were analyzed with MTD and thoracic expansion was analyzed with chest wall measurement on the 2nd and 7th postoperative days. Results: Statistically significant difference was identified between the groups in 2MWT distance (CPR+NMES, Zt*p=0.000*), SST (CPR, Zt*p=0.000*), E' (CPR+NMES, Zt*p=0.002*), E (CPR+NMES, Zt*p=0.025*), E/E' (CPR+NMES, Zt*p=0.007*), A (CPR, Zt*p=0.006*) (p0.05), except for E'(Zg*p=0.000*), E/E' (Zg*p=0.003*) parameters (p |
