Abstract:
Objective To assess the clinical effects of Shenfu injection which consists mainly of panaxoside and water-solubility alkaloied on chronic pulmonary heart disease complicated with heart failure.Methods Ninetysix patients were randomly divided into two groups ,40 patients underwent regular treatment (control group) and 56 patients were treated with Shenfu injection additionally to regular treatment (treatment group ).There were 2 treatment durations,with 15 days in one duration.The symptoms,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and B type UNa peptide (BNP) were measured before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate in the treatment group was 91.1% (51/56) ,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (72.5% ,29/40) (P <0.05 ).After treatment,the treatment group has significantly higher LVEF than the control group(53.27% ±7.45%vs.49.12% ± 5.89% ) ( P < 0.05 ),and significantly lower BNP ( ( 209.1 ± 18.7 ) ng/L vs.( 261.2 ± 19.3 ) ng/L ( P < 0.05).Conclusions Shenfu injection could strengthen the contractility and increase LVEF,therefore improve the function of left ventricle,as well as decrease BNP and repair heart failure.
