| Summary: | <p class="Normalny1"><strong><span lang="FR">Introduction:</span></strong><span lang="FR"> </span><span lang="EN-GB">Complex cardiac rehabilitation is a basic procedure of therapeutic treatment for patients after cardiac surgeries. The course of operations depends on many factors. The aim of this article is to investigate connections between type 2 diabetes and results of 6-minute walk test among patients </span><span>after cardiac surgery</span><span lang="EN-GB">. </span><em></em></p><p class="Normalny1"><strong><span lang="EN-GB">Materials and methods:</span></strong><span lang="EN-GB"> This research was conducted among 111 patients who had cardiac surgery. Those patients were qualified to stay at a stationary cardiac rehabilitation facility. They were divided into two groups: patients with and without diabetes. In the analysis, patients' medical data and 6-minute walk test results before and after complex rehabilitation were taken into consideration. </span><em></em></p><p class="Normalny1"><strong><span lang="EN-GB">Results: </span></strong><span lang="EN-GB">On the basis of our analysis it was found that patients who have diabetes achieve worse results of 6-minute walk test before </span><span lang="EN-GB">(OR=0.995; p=0.005) and after (OR=0.994, p=0.006) complex cardiac rehabilitation in comparison with patients without diabetes. </span><em></em></p><p class="Normalny1"><strong><span lang="EN-GB">Conclusions: </span></strong><span lang="EN-GB">Type 2 diabetes has impact on physical effort tolerance among patients after cardiac surgery. Despite improvement of 6-minute walk test results thanks to complex cardiac rehabilitation, patients with type 2 diabetes walked shorter distance than patients without diabetes.</span><em></em></p> |
