Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of Shenfu injection (a Chinese herbal preparation of Aconitum and Ginseng) for the treatment of patients with post-resuscitation syndrome (PCAS) and to investigate its mechanism as well.Methods The data of 80 patients with restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest were collected,and the patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group.The patients in experimental group received Shenfu injection in addition to conventional treatment,and the patients in control group just had the conventional treatment.The cerebral performance classification (CPC) scores,Glasgow Coma Scales cores and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores before treatment and on the 3rd,7th,14th and 28th days after treatment in the patients of two groups were monitored and compared.The length of ventilation time,total expenses and mortality of the patients were calculated and compared between two groups.Results The data of 3 patients were excluded from those of total 80 patients,because the information of those patients was not complete.Finally,there were 37 cases in experimental group and 40 patients in control group.The CPC scores of smrvived cases in experimental group were lower than those in control group on the 3rd,7th,14th and 28th days after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).The Glasgow Coma Scale scores in experimental group were higher than those in control group on the 14th and 28th days after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).The SOFA scores in experimental group were lower than those in control group on the 3rd,7th and 14th days after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in length of ventilation time and total expenses between two groups on the 3rd,7th,14th and 28th days after treatment (P ＞ 0.05).The mortality of the experimental group was lower than that in control group at the 28 th day after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The Shenfu injection could improve the prognosis of patients with post cardiac arrest syndrome.
