Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare different types of rehabilitation after coronary bypass surgery. The investigators wish to compare rehabilitation in an institution for four weeks with a home based rehabilitation. They also wish to compare rehabilitation in an institution for four weeks with a rehabilitation program were the patients live at home but visit the hospital twice a week for twelve week. The investigators will measure the patients' physical capacity by measuring their maximal oxygen consumption. The investigators will also analyze their blood and their endothelian function (how well their arteries dilate).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

1

Rehabilitation in institution

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Rehabilitation in institution

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Rehabilitation in institution for four weeks. Subjects follow standard rehabilitation in the center.

2

Rehabilitation at home

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Rehabilitation at home

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Subjects get a written prescription of exercise training, diet, etc. to follow at home.

Out-patient rehabilitation at the hospital

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

This intervention was removed. We never got time to randomize subjects into this category. We had planned to randomize patients from one hospital to either Rehabilitation in institution (rehab center) or rehabilitation at the hospital (out patient). And also patients from another hospital to either rehabilitation in institution (rehab centre) or rehabilitation at home. We have only managed to start the study in this second hospital so far (due to maternity leave and limited time to finish a PhD)
