Abstract
Background:
Coronary angioplasty and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are two major surgical procedures used to treat patients with coronary artery disease, both of which have a significant impact on life.

Aim:
This study aimed to assess the lifestyle practices, health problems, and quality of life (QoL) of patients who underwent these procedures.

Methods:
A quantitative research approach with descriptive comparative research design was undertaken to study the lifestyle practices, health problems, and QoL of patients who underwent angioplasty and CABG. A total of 160 post operated patients (97 post angioplasty and 63 post CABG) were selected through non probability convenient sampling technique. The tools used were 1. Socio demographic questionnaire, 2. Life style practice questionnaire, 3. Checklist to assess the health problems, and 4. QoL questionnaire. A structured interview schedule was used as a data collection
technique.

Results:
There was a significant difference found between post angioplasty and post CABG patients in terms of life style practices (p = 0.050), health problems (p = 0.000), and QoL (p = 0.014). There was a significant association found between health problems of CABG patients and age (p = 0.027), marital status (p = 0.019), occupation (0.022), and previous history of hypertension (p = 0.015).

Conclusion:
The study concluded that there was a significant difference in lifestyle practices, health problems, and QoL of patients underwent angioplasty and CABG patients. Consequently, there is a clear need to encourage postoperative patients to maintain healthy lifestyle practices, manage health problems effectively, and improve their overall QoL.

Key words: Angioplasty; CABG; Lifestyle practices; Health problems; Quality of life.
