Abstract
Aim. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a procedure used to help improve and save the lives of thousands of coronary artery diseases patients every year. Measuring psychological status of patients, significantly contributes to understanding patient perceptions of outcomes attributable to this surgery. The aim of this study was comparison of psychological status s of patients before and 3 months after CABG.
Material and methods. In this cross sectional study a total of 120 consecutive patients who submitted to CABG were examined a few days before and 3 months after CABG at the Ekbatan hospital in Hamadan/Iran in 2012. The SCL-90 Questionnaire was used to measure psychological dimensions pre and post CABG. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 18. Paired t-tests were used to compare pre-operative and postoperative SCL-90 scores.
Results. Significant differences were found between before and after CABG in patients’ scores of somatization, obsession-compulsion, interpersonal sensitivity, depression and Anxiety subscales (p<0,001) of the SCL-90 Questionnaire.
Conclusion. Preoperative assessment could identify patients at risk for clinical levels of postoperative psychological problems. Detection of psychological symptoms during the pre- operative evaluation was essential for diagnostic orientation and, if needed, counseling and therapeutic interventions could be instituted.
