Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint application with Xiong Bi Tie in treating unstable angina pectoris. Method Sixty eligible subjects with unstable angina pectoris were randomized into a control group (treated with basic Western medication) and a treatment group (intervened by the basic Western medication plus acupoint application with Xiong Bi Tie), 30 cases in each group. The symptoms of unstable angina pectoris, syndromes and signs of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and cardiogram were recorded, and the clinical efficacies were also observed. Result In comparing the improvement of angina pectoris, the treatment group was better than the control group, with a statistical significance (P<0.05). From the perspective of TCM syndromes and signs, the efficacy of the treatment group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Regarding the cardiogram, the total effective rate was 76.7% in the treatment group versus 50.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupoint application with Xiong Bi Tie can significantly improve the angina symptoms and cardiogram result of unstable angina pectoris (blood stagnation caused by qi deficiency syndrome), and it’s safe and easy-to-operate.
