Abstract:
AIM To investigate the effects of Tongxinluo Capsules (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma,Hirudo,Scorpio,etc.) combined with routine treatment on fibrinogen (Fib) and mean platelet volume (MPV) levels in appropriate patients for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.METHODS One hundred and six patients were randomly assigned into control group (n =50) for routine treatment and observation group (n =56) for combination therapy of Tongxinluo Capsules and routine treatment.Both groups had their Fib and MPV levels evaluated,and safety compared.RESULTS Thirty,ninety days after the treatment,the two groups reported less incidence of composite cardiovascular events (refractory angina pectoris,relapsing myocardial infarction or death) (P ＜ 0.01),and the observation group had an even more obviously reduced plasma Fib level (P ＜0.01).The significantly decreased after-treatment MPV levels in the two groups were observed (P ＜ 0.05),and a most distinct decrease extent was found in the observation group after 90 d (P ＜ 0.05).For the bleeding events,the incidence rates of the observation group and the control group were 5.4％ and 4.0％,respectively.CONCLUSION For appropriate candidates of CABG surgery,Tongxinluo Capsules shows its efficacy in dissolving thrombus and improving clinical symptoms without serious bleeding risk.
