Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical effect of Yiqi-Huoxue decoctions combined with exercise rehabilitation training for patients with chronic heart failure and its effect on serum MMP-1, TIMP-1. Methods A total of 120 patients with chronic heart failure in our hospital from February 2016 to January 2017 were enrolled in this study. The subjects were randomly divided into the control group (n=60) and the treatment group (n=60). The control group were treated with conventional treatment, and the treatment group were treated with Yiqi-Huoxue decoctions combined with exercise training. The two groups were treated for 30 days. The clinical effects of the two groups after treatment were compared. The SBP, DBP, LVESD, LVEDD and LVEF of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. The serum MMP-1, TIMP-1 of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. The adverse reaction rates of the two groups during treatment were compared. Results The total effect rate of the treatment group was 93.3% (56/60), significantly higher than 73.3% (44/60)of the control group (χ2=8.640, P=0.003). After treatment, the SBP (125.17 ± 13.51 mmHg vs. 140.82 ± 14.63 mmHg, t=6.087), DBP (74.36 ± 10.31 mmHg vs. 86.29 ± 11.17 mmHg, t=6.079), LVESD (41.11 ± 3.23 mm vs. 49.69 ± 4.99 mm, t=11.181) and LVEDD (57.36 ± 3.28 mm vs. 64.16 ± 4.05 mm, t=10.107) of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). The LVEF (69.82% ± 5.05% vs. 51.40% ± 4.11%, t=21.913) of the treatment group was significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the serum MMP-1 (141.52 ± 15.22 μg/L vs. 164.10 ± 16.18 μg/L, t=7.874) of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05), and the serum TIMP-1 (3.98 ± 0.22 μg/L vs. 3.51 ± 0.16 μg/L, t=13.383) of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant differences of the adverse reaction rates of the two groups during treatment (χ2=0.152, P=0.697). Conclusions The Yiqi-Huoxue decoctions combined with exercise rehabilitation training for patients with chronic heart failure showed good efficacy and low incidence of adverse reactions, can significantly improve cardiac function and the cardiac remodeling.
