Objective:To observe the effect of Xingnaojing injections combined with edaravone in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage. Methods:The patients with acute cerebral hemorrhage were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 44 cases in each. The two groups were both given conventional treatment. The control group was treated with 30mg edara-vone injections in 0. 9% 500ml sodium chloride infusions, ivd (infused in 30min), bid, while the observation group was additionally given 10ml Xingnaojing injections in 5. 0% 250ml glucose infusions, ivd, qd. After the 4-week treatment, NIHSS score, GCS score, brain edema and hematoma volume, the levels of high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after the treatment in the two groups were observed and compared, and adverse drug reactions were also recorded. Results: After the treat-ment, GCS score was significantly improved (P<0. 05) and NIHSS score was decreased significantly (P<0. 05) in the two groups, and the observation group was better than the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, cerebral edema and hematoma volume was notable reduced in the two groups (P<0. 05), while the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0. 05). The levels of hs-CRP and IL-6 were decreased significantly after the treatment in the two groups (P<0. 05), and the decrease in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups showed no significant difference (P>0. 05). Conclusion: Compared with edaravone alone, Xingnaojing injections combined with edaravone in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage show more significant efficacy.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of nalmefene hydrochloride injections and Naofukang injections in the treatment of the patients with severe head injury. Methods:Totally 60 cases of patients with severe head injury were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group. The two groups were all given the conventional therapy, such as dehydration, expansion and anti-infective therapy. On the basis of the conventional therapy, the observation group was treated with nalmefene hydro-chloride injections, 0. 4-0. 6 mg in 0. 9% sodium chloride injections, ivd, qd, while the control group was given Naofukang injections, 4-9 g in 5% or 10% glucose injections, ivd, qd. The treatment course was 2 weeks. After the 3-day treatment, the heart rhythm, the incidence of respiratory abnormalities and intracranial pressure were compared between the two groups. After the 10-day treatment, the total efficacy and complications in the two groups were also recorded and compared. Results:After the 3-day treatment, the incidence of abnormal heart rhythm and respiratory abnormalities in the observation group were significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05), the intracranial pressure in the observation group was better than that in the control group (P<0. 05). After the 10-day treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 93. 3%, which was much higher than that in the control group ( P<0. 05). After the treatment, the incidence of respiratory infections, acid-base unbalance and upper gastrointestinal bleeding in the ob-servation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P <0.05). Conclusion: The clinical efficacy of nalmefene hydrochloride injections in the treatment of patients with severe traumatic brain injury is significant with promising safety, which is bet-ter than that of Naofukang injections.
