Objective:To evaluate the clinical rehabilitation effect of external counterpulsation(ECP)on patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)by meta-analysis.Methods:We searched the databases of CNKI,WanFang,VIP,CBM,PubMed,Web of Science,Cochrane Library and Embase for randomized controlled trials(RCTs)and prospective cohort studies upon rehabilitative effect of ECP on CHD patients before May 2024.And meta-analysis was conducted to calculate the pooled MD and 95%CI using the random(P<0.5 or I2≥50%)or fixed effect models(other situations).Results:13 eligible literatures were finally included in the meta-analysis.Compared with participants in control group,those in trial group had significant higher left ventricular ejection fraction(MD=4.15,95%CI 2.55~5.76,P<0.001),stroke volume(MD=9.11,95%CI 7.59~10.64,P<0.001),peak oxygen uptake(MD=5.42,95%CI 2.53~8.32,P<0.001),6-min walking distance(MD=31.14,95%CI 24.89~37.40,P<0.001),metabolic equiv-alent(MD=0.58,95%CI 0.45~0.71,P<0.001),exercise duration time(SMD=0.77,95%CI 0.55~0.99,P<0.001),oxygen pulse(MD=0.88,95%CI 0.68~1.09,P<0.001),and significant lower left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(MD=-3.19,95%CI-5.20~-2.61,P<0.001).Conclusion:This study showed that ECP could effectively improve heart function,exercise capacity and tolerance of CHD patients.
