Aortic Diseases, Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension, Coronary Artery Disease, Valvular Heart Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
The objective of this clinical trial is to develop a novel rehabilitation model that, through the PRECICA program, will help to reduce perioperative and postoperative complications in the care process prior to planned cardiac surgery. This will be achieved by reducing the total postoperative hospital stay and the physical and psychological complications resulting from surgery. The target population for this trial is patients undergoing planned cardiac surgery due to chronic coronary artery disease, valvular pathology, chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and/or aortic injury. Consequently, the quality of life of these patients could be enhanced.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Six minute walk test | This variable will be measured at four different time points; in the inclusion of the patient in the study, on the day of admission prior to surgery, one week after hospital discharge, and 2 months after surgery. | A functional capacity test (six-minute walk test) will be conducted to assess the subject's cardiovascular capacity. |
| Quality of life (EQ-5D-5L) | This variable will be measured at four different time points; in the inclusion of the patient in the study, on the day of admission prior to surgery, one week after hospital discharge, and 2 months after surgery. | The standard of health experienced |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
