Abstract:
Objective:To study the effect of cardiac rehabilitation program on recovery of patients after small incision aortic valve replacement.Methods:600 patients who underwent small incision aortic valve replacement in our hospital from January 2015 to January 2020 were retrospectively collected and divided into Cardiac rehabilitation group(CR) and control group by propensity matching analysis. Clinical data of CR group and control group were collected 6 months and 12 months after the beginning of Cardiac rehabilitation program. The primary outcome measures were the peak oxygen uptake(VO 2 Peak) of cardiopulmonary function test and the number of patients attending cardiovascular specialty in tertiary hospitals after the rehabilitation program began. The secondary outcome measures were 6-minute Walk test(6-MWT), psychological evaluation, and assessment of cardiovascular disease risk factors. Results:After 6 months and 12 months of cardiac rehabilitation program, the VO2 peak in CR group was statistically significant compared with the control group, and the 6-MWT index after 12 months was statistically significant.The cardiovascular specialist visits in tertiary hospitals in the two groups were statistically significant. The comparison of psychological self-rating scale and cardiovascular disease risk factors between the two groups was statistically significant after propensity matching analysis.Conclusion:Cardiac rehabilitation has a positive effect on postoperative recovery after small incision aortic valve replacement, and can improve patients’ motor ability.
