Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the clinical curative effect of Huangqi Chifeng Decoction combined with modified Duhuo Jisheng Decoction on patients with ischemic stroke (IS) during recovery.Methods:Prospective cohort study. A total of 220 patients with IS during recovery who met inclusion criteria in the First People's Hospital of Dongcheng District in Beijing, were enrolled and divided into control group ( n=110) and observation group ( n=110) by random number table method between January 2015 and July 2020. The control group was given basic treatment, while observation group was given Huangqi Chifeng Decoction combined with modified Duhuo Jisheng Decoction. All were treated for 1 month. Before and after treatment, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndromes were scored. The activities of daily living were evaluated by Barthel index. The quality of life was evaluated by stroke specific quality of life scale (SS-QOL). The severity of neurological impairment was evaluated by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). The functional recovery of stroke was evaluated by modified Rankin scale (mRS). The adverse reactions during treatment were observed and recorded. Results:After treatment, scores of TCM syndromes, mRS and NIHSS in observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=21.87, 4.66, 12.06, P<0.01), while scores of Barthel index and SS-QOL were significantly higher than those in the control group ( t=14.13, 5.80, P<0.01). During treatment, there were no obvious adverse reactions in either group. Conclusion:Huangqi Chifeng Decoction combined with modified Duhuo Jisheng Decoction can improve clinical symptoms and nerve function in patients with IS during recovery, which is beneficial to improve outcomes and quality of life.
