abstract = {Background: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has become a major factor of the clinical
health care since it plays a main role when making decision by patients and health care providers.
The prediction of the success of surgical intervention such as coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
has been showed to be based on the HRQoL.
Aims: To investigate the associations between HRQoL and sociodemographic and clinical
characteristics and examine the impact of a previous heart surgery (PHS) on HRQoL in Palestinian
patients underwent CABG.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a convenience sample of 119 Palestinian
patients underwent CABG (76.5% males). The Short Form-36 healthy survey was used to evaluate
the HRQoL. Sociodemographic factors and clinical characteristics including the presence of
hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and hypercholesterolemia were assessed.
Results: Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that a medida que aumenta la edad disminuye
la HRQoL (p<0.001). In contrast, a mayor nivel educativo, seguridad en el trabajo y salario
aumenta la HRQoL (p<0.001). Los pacientes sometidos a PHS refieren una peor HRQoL que
aquellos que se han intervenido por primera vez a un CABGs (p<0.001) and all the domains of
HRQoL were significantly lower in patients with PHS compared to patients without PHS (p<0.05).
Logistic regression analysis revealed significant associations between all domains of HRQoL
except for role physical and role emotional and PHS.
Conclusion: A previous heart surgery in patients underwent CABG was associated with low
HRQoL. An increase of age was also related to low HRQoL whereas a high level of education and
occupational status increase HRQoL. Nursing staffing should consider the impact of factors
associated to HRQoL in patients underwent CABG to deliver a high-quality patient care.},
