Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate respiratory parameters and functional capacity in coronary artery patients.
Detailed description
Decreased pulmonary function as measured by forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), or peak expiratory flow (PEF) has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. A low MIP value may generally indicate weak muscle strength and therefore be an indicator of general poor health. Respiratory muscle weakness and decreased respiratory muscle endurance affect exercise tolerance in individuals with chronic disease, including cardiovascular disease. Studies have supported the association of grip strength with frailty, physical activity, diabetes, functional limitation, nutritional status, metabolic syndrome, and mortality. The study will evaluate respiratory parameters and functional capacity in coronary artery patients.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Six-minute-step test | Day 1 | The number of steps the participant climbed up and down is recorded. |
| Respiratory muscle strength | Day 1 | Respiratory muscle strength will be evaluated using a mouth pressure device. |
| Respiratory muscle endurance | Day 1 | Respiratory muscle endurance will be evaluated using a constant load test. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pulmonary functions | Day 1 | Forced vital capacity (FVC), Forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1), Peak expiratory flow (PEF) assessment via spirometry. |
| Hand grip strength | Day 1 | Hand grip strength is evaluated by a hand dynamometer. |
| Functional Capasity | Day 1 | The functional capacity is assessed with The Duke Activity Status Index (DASI). |
