Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of application of Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pills in patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure due to qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. Methods:A prospective study was conducted with 66 patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure, all diagnosed with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, who were admitted to the Department of Internal Medicine at Huzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to March 2024. The patients were divided into a control group and an observation group, each consisting of 33 patients, based on the odd or even number of their hospital admission numbers. The control group received conventional treatment with Western medicine, while the observation group received Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pills in addition to the treatment given to the control group. The clinical effects between the two groups were compared, and changes in heart function, traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores, and serum biomarkers before and after treatment were collected and compared. Results:The overall response rate in the observation group was 96.97% (32/33), which was significantly higher than that of the control group at 75.76% (25/33) ( χ2 = 4.63, P < 0.05). After treatment, the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t = 9.03, 6.36, 5.55, 12.34, all P < 0.001). The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-systolic diameter, and left ventricular end-diastolic volume in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group ( t = 3.66, 7.69, 6.53, all P < 0.05). The 6-minute walk test results and left ventricular ejection fraction in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( t = -5.06, -18.10, both P < 0.001). The levels of N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and serum homocysteine in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group ( t = 18.09, 18.61, 10.87, all P < 0.001). Conclusions:Combining Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pills with conventional treatment for patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure due to qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome can effectively enhance clinical outcomes, alleviate symptoms, improve heart function, and reduce inflammatory responses.
