Abstract
BACKGROUND: Coronary heart disease is a serious cardiovascular disease. There is coronary atherosclerosis, resulting in lumen stenosis, blockage, and then the symptoms of insufficient blood supply and hypoxia in the myocardium. Chronic heart failure is a kind of syndrome with abnormal ventricular filling and ejection function, which is the final stage of the development of coronary heart disease. At present, the treatment plan of Western medicine can significantly reduce the hospitalization rate, but it is still not satisfactory for the prognosis and mortality of patients. Shenfu injection has advantages in the treatment of heart failure in patients with coronary heart disease, but there is a lack of standard clinical studies to verify it, so the purpose of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shenfu injection combined with sodium nitroprusside in the treatment of chronic heart failure in patients with coronary heart disease. METHODS: This is a prospective randomized controlled trial to study the efficacy and safety of Shenfu injection combined with sodium nitroprusside in the treatment of chronic heart failure in patients with coronary heart disease. The patients will be randomly divided into a treatment group and the control group according to 1:1, in which the treatment group is treated with Shenfu injection combined with sodium nitroprusside, and the control group is treated with sodium nitroprusside alone. Both groups will be treated with standard treatment for 7 days and followed up for 30 days to pay attention to their efficacy and safety indexes. The observation indexes include TCM syndrome score, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, left ventricular ejection fraction, brain natriuretic peptide, left ventricular end-systolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, stroke volume, adverse reactions and so on. We will use SPSS 25.0 software for data analysis. DISCUSSION: This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shenfu injection combined with sodium nitroprusside in the treatment of chronic heart failure in patients with coronary heart disease. The results of this experiment will provide a clinical basis for Shenfu injection combined with sodium nitroprusside in the treatment of chronic heart failure in coronary heart disease.
