| Core Tip |
Preoperative functional status has been proposed as a modifiable factor of postoperative recovery after coronary artery bypass grafting. Handgrip strength and physical activity level (PAL) are simple, low-cost measures reflecting muscle strength and functional reserve. In this article, neither preoperative handgrip strength nor PAL was significantly associated with postoperative length of hospital stay (LoS) after coronary artery bypass grafting. Although patients with moderate PAL showed a numerically shorter LoS, this finding was not statistically significant. These results highlight the multifactorial nature of postoperative LoS, predominantly driven by perioperative complications, and prospective studies integrating functional, clinical, and postoperative recovery outcomes are needed. |
