Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of Qilin Xintongshu pill for treatment of patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndromes(NSTE-ACS)accompanied by gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB). Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 67 hospitalized patients in Cardiovascular Department of Qionghai City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were divided into therapy group(35 cases)and control group(32 cases). Both groups were given conventional medical treatment(except anti-coagulative agent). In the therapy group,the patients received Qilin Xintongshu pill(the ingredients consisting of panax pseudo-ginsen,dragon's blood,immature orange fruit,etc.)oral administration,once 5 mg and 3 times a day,while in the control group,the patients accepted clopidogrel orally,once 75 g and once a day,the therapeutic course in both groups being 30 days. The major cardiovascular events(such as death,a newly-happened myocardial infarction(MI),MI secondary,obstinately ischemia)and incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract were compared between the two groups,and the adverse events were observed. Results After treatment,the incidence of cardiovascular events and massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract in the therapy group were decreased significantly compared to those in the control group 〔incidence of cardiovascular events:8.57%(3/35)vs. 28.13%(9/32), incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract:2.86%(1/35)vs. 21.88%(7/32),both P<0.05〕. Adverse events were not observed in both groups,and the examinations of blood,urine,liver and renal functions were of no abnormalities before and after treatment. Conclusion Qilin Xintongshu pill can effectively reduce the incidences of cardiovascular events and massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract in patients with NSTE-ACS accompanied by GIB in the therapeutic course of 30 days,therefore this traditional Chinese herbal medicine is an ideal agent for treatment of such disease.
