Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of metoprolol combined with benazepril on cardiac structure and heart function in patients with heart failure and the treatment of hypertension in the elderly. Methods 120 cases of elderly hypertensive patients with heart failure from June 2011 to June 2015 were studied, according to the random number table method, they were randomly divided into combination group and control group.The two groups were given symptomatic and supportive therapy, the control group on the basis of conventional treatment were given antihypertensive drugs of benazepril; combination treatment group were given metoprolol on the basis of control group. After treatment, the clinical efficacy of the two groups were evaluated, the changes of cardiac structure in the two groups were recorded and analyzed before and after treatment, and the blood pressure and cardiac function were analyzed. Results The total effective rate of the combined group was 91.67%, the control group was 78.33%, there was significant difference between the two groups (χ2=4.1830, P=0.0408). After 6 months of treatment, the blood pressure, cardiac structure and 6min walking distance were significantly improved in the two groups (P<0.05). The above indicators in combination group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). The complication rate in combination group was 8.33%, 13.33% in the control group, there was no statistically significant between two groups (χ2=0.7764, P=0.3782). Conclusion Metoprolol combined with antihypertensive treatment can significantly improve the clinical efficacy of the treatment, improve the cardiac structure and function.
