Abstract:
This study was aimed to investigate the effects of Shen-Y uan Y i-Qi Huo-Xue (SYYQHX) capsule com-bined with early percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on near-term quality of life (QOL) in unstable angina (UA) patients. Seventy-eight patients diagnosed with UA were selected and randomly divided into the treatment group and control group, with 39 patients in each group. Early PCI was undergone after coronary angiography. Before PCI, the control group was given routine western medication. The treatment group was given routine western medication plus SYYQHX capsule, three pills once, three times daily. The treatment lasted for 30 days. The QOL scores were evalu-ated among patients from both groups before and after treatment in order to determine the efficacy on angina, electro-cardiogram (ECG) and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) main symptom. The results showed that compared to pre-treatment, the scores of physical limitation (PL), angina stability (AS), angina frequency (AF), and treatment satisfac-tion ( TS ) were significantly increased after treatment ( P < 0 . 05 ) . Compared with the control group , after treat-ment with SYYQHX capsule, the AF, duration time and symptoms of palpitation, fatigue and shortness of breath were obviously improved (P< 0.05). The scores of AS, AF and TS in the treatment group were significantly increased (P < 0.05). It was concluded that SYYQHX capsule combined with early PCI can improve the near-term QOL and TCM main symptoms among UA patients.
