Abstract:
Objective To observe the efficacy and acute inflammatory reactionof Qingjin Huazhuo Prescription combined with Western medicine therapy for treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). Methods Totally 60 hospitalized patients with AECOPD (Grade Ⅱ) and acute exacerbation course≤1 week were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional Western medicine. The observation group was treated with conventional Western medicine and oral administration of Qingjin Huazhuo Prescription for 10 days, once a day. TCM syndrome and dyspnea grading (mMRC score), white blood cell (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), were measured before and after the treatment. Results The total scores of TCM syndromes and cough, expectoration, wheezing, fever, and cyanosis in the two groups decreased significantly (P<0.05). The improving degrees of cough and expectoration were better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). The scores of mMRC in the two groups were better than before treatment (P<0.05). The levels of WBC, CRP and PaCO2 in the two groups were lower than those before treatment (P<0.05). The decreased degrees of CRP and PaCO2 in the observation group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion Qingjin Huazhuo Prescription combined with Western medicine therapy can relieve clinical symptoms, reduce the acute inflammatory reaction of AECOPD patients and improve respiration.
