Abstract:
Objective To approach the effects of the combination of simvastatin,clopidogrel and low molecular weight heparin on patients with unstable angina pectoris(UAP). Methods A total of 86 patients presented with UAP in Department of Internal Medicine of Tianjin Hongqiao Hospital were divided into control group and therapy group(each 43 cases)by random number table. The patients in the control group were treated with routine therapies such as oxygen,anti-platelet agents,nitrates,β-blockers,calcium channel antagonists,et al,while the patients in treatment group received besides the above conventional treatments,they additionally took simvastatin, clopidogrel orally and subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin. The frequency of recurrence of angina, improvement of cardiac ischemia,the change of cholesterol,adverse reaction and the occurrence of complication were observed during 4 weeks of treatment. Results Compared to the control group,the frequency of angina(time/week:2.77±1.12 vs. 3.78±2.57,P<0.05)and consumption of nitroglycerin(mg/d:1.16±0.46 vs. 2.89±1.89,P<0.05) were obviously less,the improvement of cardiac ischemia(95.3%vs. 79.1%,P<0.05)and electrocardiogram(ECG:90.7%vs. 62.8%,P<0.05)was superior and the total effective rate was higher obviously in the therapy group. After treatment,plasma cholesterol levels were decreased obviously in treatment groups compared with before treatment (mmol/L:3.78±1.23 vs. 5.76±1.74,P<0.05),but the statististical difference in cholesterol levels in control group was found between before and after treatment(5.66±1.14 vs. 5.69±1.89,P>0.05). Before and after treatment,there were no significant changes of platelet count(PLT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),liver functions and renal functions,and after treatment,bleeding and allergy serious adverse reactions were not seen in patients of both groups. Myocardial infarction occurred in 2 patients in the control group. Conclusion The addition of combined application of simvastatin,clopidogrel and low molecular weight heparin onto routine therapies has better effects for treatment of UAP.
