Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Shenfu injec-tion on cardiac function of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy ( DCM ) associated with heart failure ( HF ) and its influence on brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP) , angiotensinⅡ( Ang-Ⅱ) , endothelin ( ET-Ⅰ) in plas-ma.Methods Eighty patients with DCM associated with HF were ran-domly divided into treatment group (n=40) and control group (n=40).Patients in the control group were only given conventional treatment of western medicine for two weeks , while patients in the treatment group were treated with Shenfu injection 50 mL on the basis of the conventional treat-ment for two weeks.The cardiac function,6 -minute walk test, and the change of BNP , Ang-Ⅱ, ET-Ⅰwere observed before and after treatment.Results The cardiac function and 6-minute walk test of the Shenfu treat-ment group improved remarkably compared with control group (P<0.05).The levels of BNP , Ang-Ⅱ, ET-Ⅰin both groups decreased significantly after treatment (P<0.05), and that in treatment group decreased more ob-viously compared with control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Shenfu in-jection can improve cardiac function of patients with DCM associated with HF, which also has therapeutic effects on the activation of neuroendocrine.
