Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The primary parameters are:
-Physical activity (Squash questionnaire)
-Muscle strength (poundsforce) baseline, after 3-4 days post IC and after 3 months
-Incidence of cognitive dysfunction at 3 months (compared to baseline)
-Results of get-up-and-go test (secs) baseline and after 3 months
Secondary outcome
1.Analysis of factors associated with POCD:
Multiple binary logistic regression analysis will be performed to determine the relative strengths of association between potential factors (age, baseline cognitive function, physical inactivity, baseline inflammatory markers) and POCD.
2.Correlation analysis and ANOVA after dichotomisation of physical activity and fitness with morbidity and outcome variables
Study objective
To assess perioperative physical activity and fitness, and muscle strength in cardiac surgical patients and to explore the association with POCD after heart surgery
Study design
3 months
Intervention
None
