I find the following two aspects of the guidelines interesting:
- During sex, patients should be encouraged to assume their usual sexual positions, or one that is comfortable. Those who've had coronary artery bypass surgery are recommended to avoid being "on top" as this may require more exertion, and to use pillows for support if needed.
- Having an affair, or having sex in an unfamiliar environment, may be a cause of stress for the patient. This is not the time to be having sex with a new partner, or in a hotel room.
