Study aim
-
Determining the effect of yoga breathing exercises on respiratory and hemodynamic indicators of patients after coronary artery bypass surgery
-
Design
-
A clinical trial with a control group, without blinding, randomized on 56 patients, the randomization list is created by the web-based software.
-
Settings and conduct
-
56 coronary graft surgery patients hospitalized in the special care department of Rajaei Cardiovascular Center will be randomly divided into two intervention and control groups. The control group will receive the breathing rehabilitation routine program and the intervention group will receive yoga breathing exercises in addition to the routine program.
-

Main outcome variables
-
The primary endpoint includes peak flowmetry, secondary endpoints include respiratory rate, arterial oxygen saturation percentage, heart rate, blood pressure, arterial blood gas indices and outcomes related to patient safety.
