Clinical Effect of Qili Qiangxin Capsule Combined with Sacubitril-Valsartan in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure

The clinical effect of Qili Qiangxin capsule combined with sacubitril-valsartan on patients with chronic heart failure was studied. We selected 108 patients with chronic heart failure in our hospital from March 2016 to January 2020 and divided them into a control group and a study group according to the random table method, with 54 cases in each. The control group took sacubitril and valsartan orally, and the study group took Qili Qiangxin pill on the basis of sacubitril and valsartan. The course of the treatment for 2 groups is 4 weeks. We compared the total effective rate of the treatment of the 2 groups for 4 weeks, cardiac function (left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)) before and after 4 weeks of treatment, 6 min walking distance (6MWT), changes in cTnI and NT-proBNP levels, and adverse reactions. The total effective rate in the study group (90.74%) is higher than that in the control group (72.22%) (P＜0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the study group LVESV (45.23 ± 2.98 mm) and LVEDV (43.38 ± 4.01 mm) are lower than those of the control group ((49.98 ± 2.56 mm) and (50.75 ± 3.49 mm), respectively), while LVEF (47.38 ± 2.78%) is higher than that in the control group (42.08 ± 3.24%) (P ＜ 0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the study group 6MWT (476.58 ± 31.25 m) of patients with chronic heart failure is higher than that of the control group (396.52 ± 24.52 m) (P ＜0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the study group serum cTnI (0.36 ± 0.12 μg/L) and NT-proBNP (276.91 ± 30.12 pg/ml) of patients with chronic heart failure are lower than those in the control group (0.87 ± 0.25 μg/L) and (367.48 ± 48.57 pg/ml) (P＜0.05). There is no significant difference between the adverse reactions in the two groups (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion: Xinbao pills combined with sacubitril and valsartan have a good effect on patients with chronic heart failure, which can improve the heart function and exercise endurance and reduce serum cTnI and NT-proBNP levels.
