Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of large dosage capoten(captopril)combined with irbesartan in the treatment of congestive heart failure(CHF).Methods One hundreds thirty nine patients of CHF were occasionally divided into two groups:large dosage capoten group(n=61)and large dosage capoten+irbesartan group (n=78).240 days later,the changes of cardiothoracic ratio(CTR),left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LEVD),left ventricular end contract surface(LVES),left ventricular eiection fraction(LVEF),6-minute walking test (6MWT),admission frequency,and mortality rate were observed before and after therapy.Results Large dosage capoten+irbesartan group can significantly reduce the admission frequency of CHF patients(P＜0.01),while large dosage capoten group was better than large dosage capoten+irbesartan group in 6MWT,LEVD,LVES,and LVEF (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in CTR and mortality rate between two groups(P＞0.05)Conclusion Capoten combined with irbesartan have better clinical effects than single capoten in the treatment of CHF and it was worthy of extending in clinic.
