Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of valsartan on related indexes of elderly patients with hypertension with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.METHODS:A total of 128 patients with hypertension with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 64 cases in each group.Control group was given Amlodipine tablets 5-10 mg/d,once a day+Hydrochlorothiazide tablets 12.5 mg/d,once a day,orally in the morning.Observation group was additionally given Valsartan capsule 80-160 mg/d orally,once a day,in the morning.Both groups were treated for 12 weeks.The levels of Hs-CRP,IL-6 and blood pressure,LVEF,LAD,maximum P wave duration (Pmax),P wave dispersion (Pd) before and after treatment,the occurrence of ADR were observed and compared between 2 groups.RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in above indexes (P>0.05).After treatment,Hs-CRP,IL-6 levels and LAD of 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and Hs-CRP,IL-6 levels in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group while LAD was higher than the control groups;LVEF was significantly higher than before,but the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05).After treatment,SBP and DBP of 2 groups were significantly lower than before (P<0.05),but there was no statistical significance between 2 groups (P>0.05).Pmax and Pd in the observation group were significantly lower than before,and lower than the control group at the same time(P<0.05),while there were no significantly of Pmax and Pd in the control group before and after treatment(P>0.05).No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups during treatment.CONCLUSIONS:For elderly patients with hypertension with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation,valsartan shows good hypotensive effect and effectively improves serum inflammatory factor levels and cardiac function related indexes.
