Patients were evaluated at admission, discharge, and 3 months. The primary end point was improvement in functional status, and other end points were improvement in diastolic function and recovery of systolic function. End points were assessed by distance covered in 6-minute walking test (6MWT), percentage with normal diastolic function, and percentage increase in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Cardiac rehabilitation improved functional capacity in both groups.

Corresponding distances in group I-BB were 180 \u00b1 91, 311 \u00b1 58, and 370 \u00b1 55 m. Normal diastolic function was restored in I-BB patients, increasing from 24% at admission to 50% and 79% at discharge and 3 months; in BB patients, it decreased from 23% to 19% and 16%. The LVEF improved in I-BB patients, from 57% \u00b1 3% at admission to 62% \u00b1 4% at discharge and 66% \u00b1 3% at 3 months, while remaining unchanged in BB patients (57% \u00b1 3%, 59% \u00b1 4%, and 59% \u00b1 3%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adding ivabradine to low-dose bisoprolol during cardiac rehabilitation in patients with CABG improved functional capacity, enhanced recovery of systolic function, and reduced diastolic dysfunction.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1074248415575963","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,29]],"date-time":"2015-04-29T21:32:12Z","timestamp":1430343132000},"page":"547-553","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The Role of Ivabradine in Cardiac Rehabilitation in Patients With Recent Coronary Artery Bypass Graft"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Stefania","family":"Marazia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiology Department, S.
