Abstract:
Heart failure(HF)is a complex clinical syndrome which develops from various heart diseases progressing to serious stages.HF is the terminal stage of various cardiovascular diseases,and has become a serious threat to public health and human life.Cardiac rehabilitation in HF patients has been proven to be feasible,while the study of cardiac rehabilitation in China is still at the preliminary stage.Nowadays,the integration of traditional Chinese and western medicine is widely used for cardiac rehabilitation.Professor Li Rong had over 20 years of clinical experience in treating HF and guiding cardiac rehabilitation for patients with HF.He focused on improving the prognosis and quality of life of the patients,and proposed the therapies with traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)characteristics to promote cardiac rehabilitation for HF.The therapies included the method of exhalation and inhalation for regulating breath,physical-breathing exercise,therapeutic diet,cultivation of spirit,TCM external therapy,five-note therapy,and natural environment therapy.The combination use of TCM,traditional qigong and conduction therapy,and modern cardiac rehabilitation techniques will provide new ideas for cardiac rehabilitation in HF patients by simpler,cheaper,and more convenient and effective methods,and will promote the innovation and development of cardiac rehabilitation with TCM characteristics.
