Abstract:
With the rapid development of the aging society and the sustainable increase of incidence of cerebrovascular diseases in China, the number of patients with various types of cognitive impairment is increasing year by year. No matter whether the causes of cognitive dysfunction are primary, vascular and other lesions leading to the impairment, the effect of conventional western medicine alone is not ideal for the treatment of the disease, especially the primary cognitive impairment. Practical experiences have proven that better clinical efficacy can often be achieved by using the idea and method of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine for such treatment. We summarized and elaborated the Professor Gao Li's practical experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of cognitive impairment with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in Capital Medical University Xuanwu Hospital, in order to broaden the clinicians' thinking and enrich the means of treatment for this disease.
