Clinical efficacy of Qili Qiangxin Capsule combined with exercise rehabilitation in the treatment of chronic heart failure

To investigate the effect of Qili Qiangxin Capsule combined with cardiac exercise rehabilitation on patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).A total of 93 CHF patients admitted to Shanghai's Putuo District Central Hospital from March 2021 to December 2021 were included in the study and were randomly divided into the control group (46 cases) and the intervention group (47 cases). The control group received routine treatment, and the intervention group was treated with Qili Qiangxin Capsule as well as cardiac exercise rehabilitation that was routine for patients with CHF. The total effective rate, 6-min walking distance, left ventricular ejection fraction, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level, left ventricular end-systolic diameter, and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter were compared in terms of the two groups.After three months of treatment, when compared with the control group, the total effective rate of the treatment on the patients in the intervention group increased significantly (87.23% vs 63.04%; P < 0.05). The 6-minute walking distance, BNP level, and the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter improved more drastically in the intervention group than in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the other indicators before and after treatment (P > 0.05).Qili Qiangxin Capsule combined with cardiac exercise rehabilitation can significantly improve cardiac and motor function in patients with CHF.
