Abstract
Abstract Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of massage therapy on sleep quality of patients after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG). Background. Poor sleep quality is common among patients following CABG and has been noticeable for more than 30 years. Method. In this quasi-experimental study, 72 patients, who had undergone CABG in Isfahan Chamran Hospital were were recruited. The patients were randomly assigned to the two experimental and control groups. The patients of the experimental group received light pressure stroking massage for 20 minutes in four sessions after the surgery. The patients in control group received only the routine care. The patients› sleep quality was measured before and after the intervention with St Mary›s Hospital Sleep Questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS software, version 18 and descriptive and inferential statistical methods were used for data analysis. Findings. Mean scores for sleep quality before the intervention in the experimental and control groups were 22.5±3.6 and 22±3.8, respectively, and no statistically significant difference seen between them. After the intervention, there was a statistically significant difference between mean scores for sleep quality of the experimental and control groups (11.8±2.8 vs 15.5±4.7) (P<0.001). Conclusion. The use of massage therapy can promote sleep quality of patients after CABG and due to low cost and simplicity it can be used as a complement to drug therapy and postoperative interventions implemented in these patients.

Abstract
Abstract Aim.The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of patient education on postoperative pain perception in patient undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG). Background.Pain is a common complication after CABG surgery. Non-pharmacological methods are more favorable than pharmacological agents. Method.In this quasi-experimental study, 72 patients who were scheduled for elective CABG surgery were randomized to experimental (n=36) and control group (n=36). Experimental group received educational intervention about pain control, one day before surgery (20-30 minutes duration), while control group received no intervention. Following transferring to the ICU and 2 hours after extubation, patients’ pain intensity wasmeasured by Johnson’s numerical scale. The measurements wererepeated twice withanintervalof threehours. The type and dosage of pain medication administered during ICU stay were recorded. To analyse the data, descriptive(mean and standard deviation, frequency distribution and percentage) and analytical statistics (Chi-square and Mann-Whitneytest) were used. Findings.There was no statistically significant difference between two groups in terms of demographic characteristics. Two hours after extubation, there were no statistically significant difference between experimental and control group in the intensity of pain (P=0.313). Pain intensity was significantly lower in experimental group than control group, 5 hours (P=0.015) and 8 hours (P=0.006) after surgery. The results also showedthat the amount ofanalgesics used to relieve post-operativepain was significantly lower in experimental group than control group (P=0.046). Conclusion.Patient education about pain control may have positive effects on postoperative pain in patients undergoing CABG surgery. This intervention could serve as an effective strategy for nurses to improve pain management among these patients.

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 aim of this study was to examine the effect of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) on depression and anxiety in people with coronary artery disease (CAD) treated with coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
Background. Depression and anxiety are common in people with CAD treated with CABG. Therefore, it is important to investigate if effective therapeutic models can influence the negative emotions of these patients.
Method. The research method was single-subject and the statistical population of this study included all people with coronary artery disease who referred to Shahid Madani Hospital in Tabriz, Iran, during the second six months of the year 2016 for rehabilitation after surgery. The study sample consisted of four available people with CAD who received eight sessions of MBSR training by the researcher. The subjects were assessed before and after receiving the MBSR training by Beck Depression Inventory, and Beck anxiety Inventory. The data were analyzed through recovery percentage, percent of non-overlapping data (PND), standardized mean difference (SMD) and visual analysis of the charts.
Findings. The findings showed that MBSR training reduced anxiety and depression in people with CAD following treatment with CABG.
Conclusion. Based on these findings, it be can concluded that MBSR is an effective treatment for management of negative emotions of people with CAD treated with CABG.

Abstract
Aim. The purpose of this study was to review the patient– and family-centered care studies in coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Background. Nowadays, the length of hospital stay after cardiac surgery is reduced, and the most of the patients recover at home with their families without usual nursing and medical care. It is necessary to provide the care based on the same needs.
Methods. This is a comprehensive review of literature published between 1990-2018 about patient- and family-centered care interventions and patient/family important outcomes in adult ICUs that was conducted through searching out databases and search engines Medline, Ovid, Science Direct, PubMed and Google scholar, including English and Persian papers. In total, 73 English papers and 46 Persian papers were found, out of which 25 papers were included in this review.
Findings. Engaging families in patient care can profoundly influence clinical decision making and patient outcomes. Yet in many hospitals and health care systems, outdated visiting policies separate families and other loved ones during hospital stays.
Conclusion. Patient– and family-centered care is associated with better clinical outcomes. The clinical benefits that have been identified through a family partnership approach in these settings include decreased mortality, increased satisfaction, improved adherence to treatment regimens, and decreased readmission rates. Although high-quality interventional studies are needed to further evaluate the effectiveness of patient- and family-centered care in coronary artery bypass surgery, it is obvious this movement in healthcare is making a huge impact on family satisfaction and patient outcomes.

Abstract
Aim. This study was conducted to determine the effect of cognitive-behavioral rehabilitation based on stress immunization training on anxiety, stress and depression in patients with coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Background. Stress, anxiety and depression that play an important role in coronary artery disorders, are being considered as a hindrance to recovery after CABG. Providing the patient with correct coping strategies with stress seems to be helpful in preventing the recurrence.
Method. The study was a quasi-experimental with control group with pretest-posttest design. The statistical population of this study included patients who had coronary artery bypass graft surgery and referred to the Rehabilitation center of Tehran Heart Hospital, Tehran, Iran. Thirty subjects were selected by continuous sampling method and randomly assigned into experimental and control group. The instruments for data collection were “Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale” (DASS-21), which completed before and after the intervention. The experimental group was exposed to stress immunization training in 10 sessions of 90 minutes. To analyze the data, multivariate covariance analysis, and one-variable covariance analysis were used in SPSS software.
Findings. Stress immunization training significantly influenced the anxiety (p≤0.0001; F=0.39), stress (p≤0.0001; F=0.35), and depression (p≤0.0001; F=0.68) scores of the experimental group compared to the control group.
Conclusion. Stress immunization training plays an important role in reducing negative emotions (anxiety, stress and depression) in patients with coronary artery bypass graft surgery. It is recommended to use this intervention for patients undergoing CABG.

Abstract
Aim. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of peer education on the anxiety - of post Coronary Artery Bypass Graft patients and caregivers
Background. Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery experience moderate to high anxiety, which has also been reported among their family members. Studies have shown that educating patients and their family caregivers has in many cases reduced their anxiety. Peer education and research on the effect of peers is of great importance in promoting therapeutic and caring goals.
Method. This randomized clinical trial study was performed in year 2018 in surgery wards of Rajaee Cardiovascular Medical and Research center. In this study, 60 family caregivers of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery and their respective patients were recruited at the time of discharge from intensive care unit and entering into the surgical ward. The subjects were randomly assigned to experimental and control group. Data collection tools included demographic information questionnaire and Spielberger's "State and trait anxiety" form. Initially, patients' family caregivers who were selected as peers were trained by the researcher in three stages. Before visiting the patients by family caregivers, their anxiety and also, patients' anxiety was measured in both groups. Thereafter, the patients’ family caregivers in the control group received routine training, and the patients' family caregivers in the experimental group received peer training in two sessions by their peers. In the third step, the anxiety of patients and their family caregivers in both groups were measured on the second and fifth days after intervention. The data were analyzed in SPSS 20 software.
Findings. Before intervention, the mean scores of anxiety in the experimental and control groups were not statistically different in both patients and their family caregivers, and the mean anxiety scores in both groups were moderate to high. After intervention, the mean score of anxiety in the experimental group was significantly lower than the control group (P≤0.0001). Also, in the second and fifth days after the intervention, there was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the mean score of anxiety of the patients and their family caregivers (P≤0.0001).
Conclusion. Peer education seems to reduce anxiety in patients and their family caregivers after discharge from ICU. It is suggested that peer education be used as effective and low cost education to reduce patient and family caregiver anxiety.

Abstract
Aim. This study aimed to examine the effect of open visiting hours on sleep quality, anxiety, and satisfaction of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG).
Background. The importance of visiting patients after CABG has been emphasized in various studies, but there is insufficient evidence to confirm whether restricted /open visits may have more positive or negative effects than each other.
Method. In this clinical trial study, 60 post-CABG patients, admitted to Shahid Rajaei Cardiovascular, Medical and Research center, were randomly selected and divided into experimental (n=30) and control group (n=30). Patients in experimental group received an open visiting schedule (free visiting) and those in control group experienced a regular visiting schedule (restricted visiting). Anxiety was measured on the second and fourth days of hospitalization by the Spielberger Anxiety Inventory (STAI), sleep quality was measured by Richard Campbell and satisfaction was assessed through researcher-made questionnaire on the fourth day of hospitalization. Data were analyzed using independent t-test in SPSS-20 software.
Findings. There was a statistically significant difference between control and experimental groups in terms of anxiety mean score (43.97±6.76 against 35.90±4.31, respectively) (p≤0.0001). There was also a statistically significant difference between control and experimental groups in terms of mean score of patient satisfaction (46.13±7.15 vs 32.23±4.67, respectively) (p≤0.0001). A statistically significant difference was found between control and experimental groups in terms of sleep quality mean score (2.33±0.8 vs 3.33±0.75, respectively) (p≤0.0001).
Conclusion. Open visiting can reduces anxiety, and improves sleep quality and patients' satisfaction after CABG.

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.

Abstract
Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of protocol of weaning from mechanical ventilation on the gastrointestinal function in people undergoing CABG.
Background. The most common problems after cardiac surgery in the intensive care unit are change in vital signs, respiratory problems, unsuccessful separation from mechanical ventilation, and gastrointestinal problems. Due to the numerous effects that gastrointestinal problems have on the patient after cardiac surgery and also the economic burden that these complications impose on the patient and the health care system, choosing the best technique to prevent and control these problems is critical for the health care team.
Method. The present study was a randomized clinical trial conducted on 100 people undergoing CABG. They were allocated to control and experimental group based on permuted block randomization. The control group received routine way and experimental group received protocol of weaning. The groups were compared in terms of nausea and vomiting, the time of beginning oral diet, defecation and bowel sounds before weaning 2, 6, and 12 hours after weaning from mechanical ventilation. Data were analyzed In SPSS version 23 using chi-square, Mann–Whitney U and Fisher tests.
Findings. In experimental group, there was a faster onset of bowel sounds and movements and earlier beginning of oral diet.
Conclusion. Patients who were under the protocol of weaning from mechanical ventilation had better gastrointestinal functional status compared to those who were under routine weaning.

Abstract
Aim. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of spousal support and companionship intervention on quality of life, marital intimacy and stress of cardiovascular patients.
Background. Supportive care and attention to the psychological factors along with medical care in people with heart disease can help therapies to be more effective. Providing an appropriate emotional atmosphere in the family, along with attention to medical care such as medication and diet control, is one of the supports that people with heart disease can receive after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG).
Method. This study was a semi-experimental research which was based on multiple baseline single-case study. The sample included 2 married male patients who had CABG and their wives which were selected among those referred to cardiac rehabilitation centers of Yazd City, Iran. The participants received 8 sessions of spousal support and companionship intervention. The participants answered to the questionnaires quality of life; stress, anxiety and depression; and marital intimacy, before, during, at the end and one month after intervention. The data were analyzed using visual analysis, improvement percentage and reliable change index.
Findings. Spousal support and companionship intervention increased the quality of life and decreased stress of patients, after intervention and in follow-up phases, but the patients’ marital intimacy did not change significantly after intervention.
Conclusion. The quality of life and stress of patients may be improved if the wives appropriately support and accompany their husbands after CABG.

Abstract
Aim. This study was conducted to compare the effect of multidimensional spiritual therapy and stress inoculation training (SIT) on physiological and psychological coordination of heart rate variability (HRV) and depression in patients after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
Background. Depression and other emotional disorders play an important role in reducing the physiological and psychological coordination of heart rate in patients after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Depression and other emotional disorders prevent the person from recovering from the pathologic condition. It seems that preparing the patient for proper coping techniques is helpful in improving emotional disorders and preventing recurrence of disease.
Method. This was a clinical trial with two experimental and one control group. The study population included patients after CABG in Tehran Cardiac Research Center, Tehran, Iran. Thirty patients were randomly selected and assigned into three groups. The instrument of this study was the DASS-21 scale and the evaluation of physiological and psychological coordination of heart rate, which was measured before the intervention and at the end of the 10th session in groups. The first experimental group was exposed to the Meichenbaum stress inoculation training for 10 sessions of 90-minute duration, and the second experimental group received multidimensional spiritual therapy. Data were analyzed using Multivariate analysis of covariance in SPSS.
Findings. Multivariate analysis of covariance showed that SIT and multidimensional spiritual therapy interventions both have a statistically significant effect in reducing depression in one-month and three-month follow-up, compared to the control group, but their effects on reducing depression was significantly different (-2.200, P=0.002). However, no statistically significant difference was observed between experimental groups in terms of changes in physiological and psychological coordination (-0.00133, P=0.1).
Conclusion. SIT intervention seems to be less effective than multidimensional spiritual therapy in reducing depression, but its effect on changes in physiological and psychological coordination is the same as multidimensional spiritual therapy.

Abstract
Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of cognitive-behavioral therapy on depression, anxiety, and stress in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Background. Coronary artery bypass graft surgery, like other surgeries, is stressful for the patient, and depression, anxiety, and stress are common important disorders in these patients. In this regard, one of the effective psychotherapy methods to reduce negative psychological factors and prevent recurrence of the disease is cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Method. The design of the present study was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population of the study included all patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery in selected AJA hospital in Tehran, Iran. Based on convenience sampling, 30 people were selected and randomly allocated to experimental (n=15) and control (n=15) group. They responded to the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Questionnaire (DASS-21) and underwent 15 sessions of psychotherapy. The experimental and control group were homogeneous in terms of age, education, as well as duration of hospital stay and absence of other chronic diseases. The univariate analysis of covariance was performed using SPSS-23.
Findings. The results showed that depression, anxiety and stress of the experimental group significantly reduced in the post-test compared to those of control group.
Conclusion. In addition to medical interventions, cognitive-behavioral therapy can also be used for patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery to reduce depression, anxiety and stress and prevent recurrence of the disease. Special attention can also be paid to the psychological factors that cause or exacerbate cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Aim. This study aimed to compare the effect of Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) and Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation-Pressure Support (SIMV-PS) modes on consequence of weaning off patients from mechanical ventilator after coronary artery bypass surgery
Background. The ventilation mode used for respiratory support in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery is very important. In addition to avoiding pressure on patient's sternotomy incision, the ventilation mode should also provide the possibility of rapid weaning of patient to avoid complications caused by long-term ventilation.
Method. In a semi-experimental study, 26 patients were ventilated with ASV as the experimental group and 26 patients were ventilated with SIMV-PS mode as the control group after coronary artery bypass graft surgery in Rajaie Cardiovascular Medical and Research Center, Tehran, Iran. Mechanical ventilation time and endotracheal tube removal time, hemodynamic variables, and arterial blood gas analysis were compared between the two groups. Data were analyzed using an independent t-test, repeated measures ANOVA and chi-square.
Findings. Out of 52 patients, 36 (69.2 percent) were male and 16 (30.8 percent) were female. The mean time for the endotracheal tube removal was 89.42±33.83 minutes in the experimental group and 101.53±44.91 minutes in control group, which did not have a statistically significant difference (p=0.843). The mean duration of mechanical ventilation of patients in the experimental group was 483.84±158.153 minutes and in the control group, it was 541.92±257.81 minutes, which were not statistically different (p=0.332).
Conclusion. The use of ASV mode for mechanical ventilation after coronary artery bypass graft did not affect reducing the duration of mechanical ventilation and the time of endotracheal tube removal compared to SIMV-PS mode. Therefore, the use of ASV mode for respiratory support of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery should be considered according to the patient's condition and the nurses' expertise.
