Inclusion criteria for this review were quantitative and qualitative studies which focus on perceived social support or preoperative program on quality of life in patients waiting for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. Results: The issue of perceived social support of patients prior to undergoing their CABG surgery existed from the last decades. Although many researchers have been conducted studies to solve the said issue, no proper solution was found until the present.
