About this study

Official title: Impact of an Early Mobilization Program on Functional Capacity After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: a Protocol of Randomized Controlled Trial.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of a program of early mobilization in the functional capacity in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting in short and long- term.

Read the detailed description

The hypotheses this study is that patients if conduct the program of early mobilization during hospitalization achieve better performance in the walk test (distance) at hospital discharge and 60 days after the surgical procedure compared to patients who only carry out the program of respiratory exercises. Intervention and control groups will receive breathing exercises up to 24 hours postoperatively, and the intervention group will also receive early mobilization exercises.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Interventional GroupOther

    Respiratory exercises will be performed and subsequently active upper limb exercises will be conducted (flexion-extension and adduction-abduction) of large joints (shoulder, elbow and wrist) Associated with upper limb exercises, patients will undergo a series of exercises ergometer with lower limb (LL). The mobilization will be conducted on a cycle ergometer in an active, lasting 20 minutes, divided into three steps: heat 5 minutes; 10 minutes of low intensity exercise, with a speed of 30 revolutions per minute (rpm); and 5 minutes recovery. The patient remains in the supine position with the head of the bed elevated to 45 degrees, while the lower limbs will remain planned. After positioning the patient, the ergometer is adjusted.

  • Control groupOther

    The patients will oriented to maintain sitting position and perform deep breaths (3 sets of 10 repetitions) in each session. They will receive the intervention once a day, for 30 minutes until 7th postoperative day. In addition, non invasive ventilation will be installed after orotracheal extubation for 30 to 60 minutes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Functional Capacity

    Patients will be submitted to six minute walking test

    Measured: All patients will be evaluated on preoperative period ( when they arrived in the hospital to do the surgery), hospital discharge ( about a mean of two weeks afeter surgery) and 60 postoperative days in cargiology ambulatory

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Hospital length of stay

    The number the days in ICU and hospital until discharge will be counted for each patient

    Measured: All patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 30 days

  2. Postoperative pulmonary complication (PPC)

    The occurrence of PPC will be monitored until the day of hospital discharge by a physician blinded to the groups: pneumonia (chest radiography with pulmonary infiltrate associated with two of the following signs: purulent expectoration, temperature above 38.3º C and a greater than 25% increase in baseline leukocyte count with hyperthermia), atelectasis (RS associated with abnormal chest acute respiratory symptoms), hypoxemia (peripheral oxygen saturation associated with respiratory symptoms below 85%).

    Measured: All patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Interventional Group in people with Postoperative; Dysfunction Following Cardiac Surgery, run by Luciana Chiavegato.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Functional Capacity (time frame: All patients will be evaluated on preoperative period ( when they arrived in the hospital to do the surgery), hospital discharge ( about a mean of two weeks afeter surgery) and 60 postoperative days in cargiology ambulatory). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Jun 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
