Abstract:
Objective To explore clinical effect of integrative medical therapy on infantile bronchiolitis. Methods 96 infants with bronchiolitis were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was treated with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine, and the control group was treated with western medicine exclusively. Results The disappearance time for symptoms and signs in the treatment group was shorter than that of the control group. The hospitalized time (or time for observation of outpatient infusion) of the treatment group was also shorter than that of the control group (P＜0.05). The cure rate was 78.0% and the total effective rate was 96.0%% in the treatment group. However, the cure rate was 52.2% and the total effective rate was 69.6% in the control group, which had a significant difference in the two groups (P＜0.05). Conclusion Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine can obviously shorten course of disease and hospitalized time, and also improve the curative effect of infantile bronchiolitis.
