Abstract

This retrospective study aimed to qualitatively and quantitatively investigate dietary habits and clinical variables related to modifiable risk factors in patients with ischemic heart failure two years after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). It also sought to raise awareness among patients, families, and healthcare professionals about the importance of appropriate postoperative nutritional follow-up. Dietary assessment was conducted with 12 participants using a modified food frequency questionnaire that included processed and ultra-processed foods, along with habitual food records and a social questionnaire. Qualitative analysis revealed that 100% of participants consumed ultra-processed foods prior to surgery, and this habit persisted two years postoperatively. Quantitative analysis showed that 11 participants maintained excessive intake of saturated fats, 7 of cholesterol, and 9 of sodium. Additionally, 92% of the studied population did not receive nutritional follow-up after hospital discharge. The findings suggest that patients with chronic heart failure maintained preoperative dietary patterns regarding processed and ultra-processed food consumption. The evaluation of habitual diet two years after surgery revealed characteristics that may contribute to disease progression, increased risk of rehospitalization, higher healthcare costs, and reduced quality of life.
