[Preliminary therapeutic observation in 82 cases of pulmonary infarction].

Abstract

The therapeutic effects on pulmonary infarction in 82 cases were reported. The cases were divided into 2 groups: trial group of 60 cases treated with heparin and Chinese herbal medicine Qing Fei decoction (QFD) and control group with antibiotics, cough-remedy, expectorant and treatment for symptomatic relief. The results showed that the resolution rate of pulmonary infarction in the trial group was higher than that of the other group (P less than 0.01). The fading phase of the infarction appeared earlier in the trial group than that in the control group (P less than 0.01). Thrombophlebitis and venous thrombosis were cured simultaneously and the recurrence rate was lower in the trial group than that in the control. Evidences showed that heparin combined with QFD has a excellent effects on the treatment of pulmonary infarction.
