However, patients do not get information from health officers such as how to have safe sex as much as it should before returning home. <strong>Aim:</strong> The study aimed to examine the predictors of sexual quality of life including metabolic syndrome, sexual knowledge, sexual communication, sexual response and function capacity in postoperative coronary artery bypass graft patients. <strong>Method: </strong>This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 132 post-coronary artery bypass grafting patients at least 3 months without cognitive impairment. The random selection was applied from one university hospital. The data were collected with questionnaires consisting of demographic data, metabolic syndrome, sexual knowledge, sexual communication, sexual response, function capacity, and sexual quality of life. The data were analyzed using hierarchical multiple regression statistics with stepwise method. <strong>Results:</strong> The findings indicated that the sexual quality of life score was 44.94 ± 21.85. Regression analysis showed that estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), sexual knowledge and sexual response were statistically significant to predict the sexual quality of life at 19%. The variable of best prediction was sexual response (β = .342, p < .001) <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The study showed that patients did not have sufficient information about sexual quality after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Therefore, the patients had sexual problems including decreasing in sexual knowledge and sexual response after having surgery.</span></em></p>
