Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft / Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass (CABG/OPCAB)

About This Study

It has been assumed that some elements of the ERAS protocol may contribute to the reduction of complications and improve the satisfaction of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. Elements of the ERAS strategy will be tested in this study. The elements that prove to be feasible and have a positive effect on the treatment process will be introduced into everyday clinical practice. In the next stage of the research, we are planning to investigate whether the introduction of the ERAS strategy has had a long-term positive effect on the quality of life after treatment (a survey 1 month and 6 months after leaving the hospital).
