Exercise after heart bypass surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how combining aerobic exercise with strength training can help people recover after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. If you had a successful bypass with no complications and are willing to join a heart rehab program, this trial may be a good fit for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 30 and 60 years old.
- You had a successful coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery without complications during or after the procedure.
- You are willing to take part in a phase II cardiac rehabilitation program.
- You have no problems with your muscles or bones that would limit exercise.
- You do not have unstable heart failure, uncontrolled diabetes, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or a neurological condition.

This study tests whether adding arm cycling exercises to standard recovery helps people recover better after a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG, also known as heart bypass surgery). It is for patients who are stable enough to start moving soon after surgery.
This study compares elliptical training with resistance training to see which better improves heart and lung function in patients who have had coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). It aims to help you recover more fully during phase III cardiac rehab.
This study compares two types of exercise—elliptical machine workouts versus Swiss ball aerobics—to see which helps heart surgery patients recover better. If you had a recent bypass and are cleared to exercise, joining could help your recovery.
This trial tests whether adding a device called a Flutter to standard chest physical therapy can improve your breathing and lung function after heart bypass surgery. It may help you recover better if you have mild to moderate COPD.
This study looks at whether a mix of aerobic and strength exercises can help you recover better after heart bypass surgery. If you join, you'll get a guided exercise program that may help you regain strength and improve your heart health.
This study compares two exercise programs for people who have recovered from heart bypass surgery. One program involves high-intensity interval training, and the other is a home-based rehabilitation program. The goal is to see which program helps improve recovery and overall health.
