It is essential for the nurse to anticipate the treatment of complications so that appropriate interventions are initiated in order to ensure a positive outcome for patients. Aim of the Study:To evaluate the effect of applying cardiac rehabilitation exercise protocol for open heart surgery patient's to reduce post-operative cardio-pulmonary complications. Research Design: Quasi-experimental research design was utilized in the current study. Subjects: A purposive sample including 60 patients male and female, classified equally into two equal groups; study group (n= 30) and control group (n= 30). Setting: This study carried out in the inpatient cardiac surgery department of Cardio-thoracic Surgery Hospital at New Minia City.  Tools of Data Collection: Three tools were utilized in collecting data. Tool I: Patient Assessment Sheet, Tool II: Cardiac Rehabilitation Exercise Checklist. Tool Ш: Cardiopulmonary Complications Assessment Sheet.  Results: Current study findings revealed that the study group had a lower incidence of cardiac and respiratory complications (30%, and 3.3%) respectively compared to (46.7% and 26.7%) for the control group and there is a statistical significance differences were detected between the two groups. Conclusion: The current study findings concluded that the cardiac rehabilitation exercise protocol in the form of deep breathing, incentive spirometer, coughing and early ambulation induces significant improvement in reducing the risk of post-operative cardio pulmonary complications. Recommendations: Hospitals should recommend implementing cardiac rehabilitation exercise protocols as a routine hospital policy among all cardiac surgical patients in all age groups
