Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Shengdi Xiexin Decoction combined with proton pump inhibitors(PPIs)in the treatment of acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding(ANVUGIB)with stomach-heat congestion syndrome.Methods Sixty-two patients with ANVUGIB of stomach-heat congestion syndrome admitted to Dongguan Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between January and December 2024 were randomly divided into a treatment group(n=31)and a control group(n=31)using a random number table.The control group received conventional western therapy(e.g.,Omeprazole Sodium),while the treatment group additionally received Shengdi Xiexin Decoction.Both groups were treated for 7 days,followed by 8 weeks of follow-up.The changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,hematological parameters[hemoglobin(Hb),red blood cells(RBC),hematocrit(Hct),albumin(ALB)],tissue perfusion and metabolic markers[blood urea nitrogen/creatinine ratio(BUN/Cr),lactate(Lac)levels],hemostasis time,time to resume oral diet,hospital stay duration,hospitalization costs,and rebleeding rates were observed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and drug safety.Results(1)After 7 days of treatment,the total effective rate was significantly higher in the treatment group(90.32％,28/31)than that in the control group(74.19％,23/31).The intergroup comparison(by chi-square test)showed that the treatment group,efficacy was superior to that of the control group(P＜0.05).(2)The treatment group showed significantly short hemostasis time,time to resume oral diet,and hospital stay duration(P＜0.05),as well as significantly low hospitalization costs(P＜0.05)compared to the control group.(3)Both groups exhibited significant reductions in the scores of epigastric burning pain,abdominal distension,acid regurgitation,restlessness,excessive thirst,scanty dark uring and dry stools,and total TCM syndrome scores(P＜0.05).The treatment group demonstrated significantly greater improvements in the scores of abdominal distension,acid regurgitation,restlessness,dark uring and dry stools,and total TCM syndrome scores(P＜0.05),while no significant differences were observed in epigastric burning pain and excessive thirst(P＞0.05).(4)Hb and Hct levels increased significantly in both groups(P＜0.05),with a greater increase in the treatment group(P＜0.05).Although RBC and ALB levels showed an upward trend,no significant differences were observed between groups(P＞0.05).Following treatment,intergroup comparisons revealed that the treatment group demonstrated significantly greater increases in Hb and Hct levels than the control group(P＜0.05).In contrast,the two groups showed comparable effects in elevating RBC and ALB levels,with no statistically significant differences(P＞0.05).(5)BUN/Cr ratio and Lac levels decreased significantly in both groups(P＜0.05),with a more pronounced reduction in the treatment group(P＜0.05).(6)No significant differences were found in early or delayed rebleeding rates between groups(P＞0.05).(7)Neither group experienced significant adverse events.Conclusion Shengdi Xiexin Decoction combined with PPIs significantly improves clinical outcomes in ANVUGIB patients with stomach-heat congestion syndrome.It is effective on enhancing hematological parameters,correcting tissue hypoperfusion,alleviating symptoms,shortening hemostasis time and hospitalization durations,and reducing medical costs,demonstrating excellent safety.
