About this study

Official title: The Effects of Neurophysiological Facilitation Techniques on Cardiopulmonary Parameters After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of neurophysiological facilitation techniques, applied in addition to Phase I cardiac rehabilitation in the early postoperative period after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, on left ventricular function, respiratory functions, and functional capacity.

Read the detailed description

In this prospective randomized controlled study, participants will be randomly divided into two groups: the control group, which will receive Phase I cardiac rehabilitation, and the treatment group, which will receive Phase I cardiac rehabilitation along with the application of neurophysiological facilitation techniques. The participants' left ventricular function, respiratory functions, and functional capacity will be assessed before and after the interventions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing exercise in people with Cardiac Disease, run by Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Oct 2024. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Gamze Aydın, PhD (05377600256, gamze.tosun@okan.edu.tr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ecocardiography device (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Oct 2024.
