Abstract:
To investigate the effect of Yiqi Huoxue Capsule (YHC) in treating early ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction.Ninety cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were randomized to two groups: YHC group (A) and placebo group (B). Groups A and B were treated with YHC and placebo respectively on the basis of thrombolytic treatment and/or routine western treatment. Interventricular septum (IVS) thickness, left ventricular posterior wall (LVPW) thickness, left ventricular dimension in end-diastole (LVDd), scoring of local ventricular wall function and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were observed 1 and 8 weeks after treatment. Eight weeks after treatment, IVS thickness, LVPW thickness and LVDd were increased and scoring of local ventricular wall function was also increased in group B as compared with those one week after treatment;no obvious changes were found in group A and the difference was significant between the two groups (P
