Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of aconite-cake-partitioned moxibustion plus medication in treating coronary heart disease (CHD) with stable angina pectoris.Method Ninety patients with CHD stable angina pectoris were randomized into a treatment group of 46 cases and a control group of 44 cases. The control group was intervened by the secondary preventive treatment for CHD, while the treatment group was intervened by aconite-cake-partitioned moxibustion at Neiguan (PC 6), Guanyuan (CV 4) and Danzhong (CV 17) in addition to the treatment given to the control group. The two groups were treated once a day, for a total of 10 sessions. The reduction-termination rate of Nitroglycerin and clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result The total effective rate was 89.1% in the treatment group versus 72.7% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The reduction-termination rate of Nitroglycerin was 84.8% in the treatment group versus 63.6% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Aconite-cake-partitioned moxibustion is an effective method in treating CHD with stable angina pectoris.
