Objective: To observe the effect of Qili Qiangxin capsule on patients with chronic heart failure. Method: Eighty patients with chronic heart failure were randomly divided into observation group and control group with forty cases in each group. The control group received routine treatment
the observation group added Qili Qiangxin capsule for 1 courses of 4 weeks. Cardiac function
left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)
plasma antidiuretic hormone (ADH) level change were observed. Result: The cardiac functions in observation group were improved markedly after treatment
ADH decreased significantly
which showed statistical significance (P<0.05) compared with control group. Conclusion: The effect of Qili Qiangxin capsule in the treatment of chronic heart failure
can further improve the cardiac function and the prognosis.
