A cross-sectional study of pulmonary and quality of life outcomes in patients with CABG and COPD
Patients with prior CABG exhibit more favorable lung function and respiratory quality of life than COPD patients. Group status was independently associated with outcomes, suggesting that both groups need tailored rehabilitation and multidisciplinary management. Therefore, multicenter prospective studies are warranted.
