Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Cerebral infarction is commonly associated with blood stasis syndrome. Abnormal alternation of blood rheology is generally manifested as increased blood viscosity and hematocrit (HCT). In isometric hemodilution, a certain amount of red blood cell (RBC) is shifted by bleeding and simultaneously, isometric diluter is supplemented to reduce whole blood viscosity.OBJECTIVE: To observe the improvement of astragalus injection, the Chinese herb for qi tonification and isometric hemodilution on blood rheology in blood stasis syndrome of cerebral infarction.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment and case-control analysis were designed.SETTING: Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. PARTICIPANTS: In cerebral infarction group (infarction group), 64 inpatients of senile ischemic cerebral vascular disease were collected from Union Hospital Affiliated to Huazhong University of Science and Technology from March 2002 to March 2004. Al l of cases were aged over 60 years and were in conformity with the diagnostic criteria on blood stasis syndrome. According to random number table, routine treatment group (routine group) and the group of integrative therapy of Chinese and western medicine (experimental group) were divided, 32 cases in each one. 47 healthy people of similar age and diagnosed with routine physical examination were selected in normal control. METHODS: In routine group, cerebral infarction was treated with routine therapy, including extending capacity, reducing viscosity, resisting coagulation, blocking aggregation of platelet and dehydration and general symp tomatic supporting treatment. In experimental group, on basis of routine treatment, isometric hemodilution and astragalus injection, the Chinese herb for qi tonification were used. 10% of total blood amount (about 450-650 mL) was collected from vein, and colloid solution of same volume was injected intravenously. The treatment was applied once every 5 days, continuously for 3 times. Astragalus injection 50 mL mixed with physical saline 250 mL was intravenous dropped, once per day, continuously for 3 weeks. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Comparison of indexes in bloodrheology before and after treatment in routine group and experimental group. ② Comparison of indexes in blood rheology between normal control and infarction group. RESULTS: According to intention management, 64 patients and 47 normal persons all entered result analysis. ① Comparison between infarction group and normal control: RVB, HCT and PFC (fibrinogen) were higher than normal control [(3.90±0.73), (3.40±0.28) mPa·s; (46.39±6.03) %,(42.61±2.91)%; (3.25±0.75), (3.08±0.46) g/L, P < 0.01, 0.05], MTIE (de formity index of RBC) was lower than normal control (0.958±0.006, 0.961 Shen H,Lu YD.Study on quantitative messurement of immunohistochemical ±0.004, P < 0.05). ② Comparison between routine group and experimental group: Difference in some indexes presented before the treatment. After treatment, RVB, HCT and PFC in experimental grou p were all lower than routine group [(3.90±0.52), (4.21±0.68) mPa·s; (43.80±3.29)%, (48.47±4.50)%; (3.31±0.60), (3.68±0.67) g/L, P < 0.01, 0.05]. CONCLUSION: Isometric hemodilution therapy and astragalus injection reduces blood viscosity, improves blood rheology and alleviates clinical svmptoms of blood stasis syndrome in senile cerebral infarction.
