Effect of Walking Exercise on Functional Capacity and Productivity in Patients After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft
Condition: Coronary Artery Bypass; Cardiac Rehabilitation
Study type: Interventional

Summary: 
      The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of walking exercise on functional
      capacity and productivity in patients after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft who have completed
      phase II cardiac rehabilitation. The main question it aims to answer are:

      1. What is the effect of walking exercise on functional capacity and productivity in patients
      after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft? Participants performed the exercise on the day agreed
      upon with the researcher. Respondents did walking exercises 3 times per week for 4 weeks with
      a duration of 10 minutes of warm-up, 30 minutes of walking exercises, and 10 minutes of
      cooling down. Respondents also did leg straightening every day for 4 weeks with a frequency
      of 1 time a day for 10 minutes. Researchers compared between intervention and control group
      to see if the effect between respondents who did walking and leg straightening exercises and
      also respondents who only did leg straightening.
    

Detailed description: 
      The research process was guided by The Consort Statement for RCT research. The process was
      conducted through the stages of enrollment, allocation, follow-up, and analysis. The
      recruitment process begins with an eligibility assessment process for potential respondents.
      This process was carried out when the patient conducted a phase 2 cardiac rehabilitation
      evaluation. Researchers initially checked patient data through medical records by looking at
      color codes (pink indicates Coronary Artery Bypass Graft patients), age, and location of
      residence. The patient's communication skills were observed during the evaluation process.
      The doctor determines the patient's risk stratification after the evaluation, then the
      researcher sees the patient's risk stratification from the assessment results in the medical
      record. The inclusion criteria in this study were patients aged 18-60 years, working, having
      mild to moderate risk stratification, living in the Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang and
      Bekasi areas, and patients who could communicate well. Respondents who had been collected
      were then randomized using an envelope so that the respondents were divided into 2 groups
      where 21 respondents entered the intervention group and 21 respondents entered the control
      group.
