Abstract
An Increasing number of facilities are offering rehabilitation programs for patients undergoing aortic dissection repair to allow them to quickly regain activities of daily living (ADL) and early mobilization. However, the literature which examined the progress of operation region place independence program and ADL inhibiting factor in detail is few. Though it was not this time sufficient symptom example number, the progress of operation region place independence program and ADL inhibiting factor were examined from undergoing ascending aortic arch replacement of 7 examples, thoracic aorta replacement of 4 examples, and abdominal aorta replacement of 23 examples. Chair sitting position start average days ± standard deviation in the post operation were undergoing ascending aortic arch replacement 10.6 ± 5.3, thoracic aorta replacement 5.0 ± 1.0, and abdominal aorta replacement 3.0 ± 1.1. Average days ± standard deviation to patient discharge were undergoing ascending aortic arch replacement 44.9 ± 18.1, thoracic aorta replacement 31.7 ± 20.6, and abdominal aorta replacement 22.6 ± 18.9. Disease state management in the post operation and management of the persistence dissociation space were ADL inhibiting factors on undergoing ascending aortic arch replacement. Management of the pleural effusion was the ADL inhibiting factor on thoracic aorta replacement in the post operation, and digestive symptoms such as the anorexia were ADL inhibiting factors on an abdominal aorta replacement.
