| Abstract: | We studied 74 patients after coronary angiography bypass graft surgery to determine what factors govern return to work. Before surgery, 31 patients worked full-time, 17 patients worked part-time and 26 patients were not working. After surgery, 32 patients worked full-time and 26 worked part-time. Post-operative chest pain, age and the period of unemployment before surgery were the significant factors in determining return to work. |
