Abstract
Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of incentive spirometry and deep breathing exercises on arterial blood gas parameters after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
Background. After CABG, pulmonary complications and oxygenation disorders are common and play an important role in post-operative mortality and morbidity. The different methods are being used for improvement of pulmonary function and oxygenation after CABG.
Method. In this clinical trial study, 75 patients who were candidate for CABG surgery were recruited and randomly allocated to two intervention groups (incentive spirometry group and deep breathing exercise group) and control group. The groups were compared in terms of arterial blood gas parameters (PaO2, PaCO2 and SaO2) before surgery, and on the first day, the second day, and the third day after surgery.
Findings. The study findings showed that in the third postoperative day, there was a statistically significant difference between intervention groups and control group in terms of the mean of arterial blood gas parameters (PaO2, PaCO2 and SaO2).
Conclusion. Incentive spirometry and deep breathing exercise are both significantly effective on improvement of arterial blood gas parameters (PaO2, PaCO2 and SaO2).

Abstract
Aim. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of education based on Orem’s self-care model on emotional reactions in people with Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD).
Background. ICD shock is unpredictable and associated with physical pain. After receiving shock, some patients find serious psychological problems such as anxiety, depression and stress. According to Orem, learning self-care activities can help a person to maintain health and well-being and increase the ability to adapt to illness.
Method. In this quasi-experimental study, 60 people with ICD who were admitted to Shahid Rajaie Cardiovascular Medical and Research Center in Tehran, were recruited. The data collection tool was a demographic form and DASS-21 questionnaire. The educational program based on Orem’s self-care model was performed in 3 sessions of 20-30 minutes based on individual self-care needs of the participants. Emotional responses were measured in two stages, before and one month after the end of intervention. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 22.
Findings. Before intervention, the mean score for anxiety was 18.06±5.49 that decreased after intervention (11.26±3.49) (p≤0.0001). The mean score of depression was significantly decreased after intervention (10.78±3.91 against 16.28±5.96; (p≤0.0001). Before intervention, the mean score for stress was 23.58±6.17 that decreased after intervention (15.51±4.18) (p≤0.0001).
Conclusion. Application of Orem’s self-care model can be effective in reducing the intensity of emotional reactions in people with ICD. Nurses can play a role in reducing emotional reactions by implementing this model and assessing educational needs of patients.

Abstract
Aim. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of cardiac rehabilitation training on patients' quality of life after coronary artery bypass grafting at Dr. Lavasani Hospital in Tehran.
Background. Coronary artery disease is the most common and serious chronic life-threatening disease. This disease affects many aspects of people's lives and reduces the quality of life. In many cases, coronary artery bypass graft surgery is needed to treat cardiac problems. Improving the quality of life is one of the important goals of participating in a cardiac rehabilitation program.
Method. In this one-group quasi-experimental study, 45 patients under coronary artery bypass graft surgery, hospitalized in Dr Lavasani Heart Hospital in Tehran, Iran, were selected by simple random sampling and were studied in a before-after design. Data collection tools included demographic questionnaire and Macnew Heart Disease Health-Related Quality of Life questionnaire. Cardiac rehabilitation training program was implemented in two sessions of 30 to 45 minutes with an interval of at least 24 hours at the time of hospitalization. Quality of life was measured in two stages, before the intervention and one month after the second training session. Data were analyzed in SPSS software version 25 using descriptive and inferential statistics.
Findings. The highest percentage of samples was male (57.8 percent), married (95.7 percent) and had primary education (47.8 percent). The mean age of women was 60.32±9.73 years, and the mean age of men was 60.50±12.60 years. After intervention, the mean quality of life score (128.71±4.95) increased significantly compared to the mean quality of life score before intervention (96.66±9.30) (p≤0.0001).
Conclusion. Cardiac rehabilitation in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery can increase their quality of life. Nurses can play an important role in improving the quality of life of these patients through implementing cardiac rehabilitation training.
