Pre-surgery exercise for heart bypass patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether starting a supervised exercise program before your first heart bypass surgery (CABG) is possible and helpful. If you are waiting for elective CABG and speak Danish, you may be able to join a prehabilitation program to get stronger before your operation.
