Abstract

Present study was aimed to specify the relationship between intervention in sexual functioning and Quality of Life in patients with Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery. The study was a casual comparative research type. The sample size was 100 people who were all married men among which 50 ones were patient and remaining were normal. Pearson correlation coefficient was used due to quantitative variable of Quality Of Life (QOL) and sexual dysfunction. Given the analysis results, there is a negative significant correlation between sexual dysfunctions and Quality of Life in tow groups (P0.05). Furthermore, here was a significant difference in a comparison between normal and patient groups in terms of Quality of Life indicator. Findings indicated that the patients who had undergone CABG were with lower Quality of Life and the higher sexual dysfunction. Therefore, successful treatment for sexual disability can improve sexual satisfaction and enhance QOL and life expectancy in patients with Coronary Artery Bypass Graft.
