Curative effect of integrated Chinese and Western medicine on 80 severe and critical COVID-19 patients
To observe the effects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) dialectical treatment combined with Western medicine on the outcome and various indicators of severe and critical COVID-19 patients to comprehensively evaluate the treatment’s clinical efficacy and safety.
Methods
2
From February to March 2020
patients with severe and critical COVID-19 who were admitted to Hubei Provincial Hospital of Integrated Chinese & Western Medicine and managed by the Guangdong TCM Medical Team were selected as the study subjects. They were divided randomly into the experimental group and the control group in a ratio of 2∶1. The control group was given the basic treatment of Western medicine according to the Western medicine treatment plan issued by the National Health Commission. Along with the basic Western medicine treatment
the experimental group added TCM dialectical treatment that included Chinese herbal decoction and proprietary Chinese medicine for stagnant pathogens trapped in the Shaoyang syndrome
stagnant pathogens trapped in the Moyuan syndrome
dampness-heat obstructing lung syndrome
epidemic toxin-blocking lung
qi-yin deficiency syndrome
the dual blaze of qi and nutrient syndrome
and internal blocking and external detachment syndrome
we observed the outcome
nucleic acid negative time
the total score of the syndrome as well as the change in the laboratory index in the two groups before and after treatment.
Results
2
The total efficiency and nucleic acid negative conversion rate of the experimental group were higher than those in the control group
and the difference between the two groups was significant (
P
<
0.05). However
there was no obvious difference in the 28-d fatality rate and nucleic acid negative time between the two groups (
P
>
0.05). The two groups showed a downward trend in TCM scores after treatment
and the decline was more pronounced in the experimental group than in the control group (
P
<
0.05). The two groups showed a downward trend after treatment with C-reactive protein
serum amyloid A protein (SAA)
and interleukin-6 (IL-6)
but SAA and IL-6 in the experimental group were more reduced than in the control group (
P
<
0.05). White blood cells (WBC)
lymphocytes (LYM)
T lymphocytes
and natural killer cells (NK) of the experimental group
and WBC and T lymphocytes of the control group showed an upward trend after treatment. WBC
LYM
T lymphocytes
and NK of the experimental group also increased more significantly than in the control group (
P
<
0.05). Lactic acid (Lac) of both groups decreased after treatment
but Lac of the experimental group decreased more significantly than that of the control group (
P
<
0.05). PaO
2
/FiO
2
of the experimental group increased after treatment (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
TCM dialectical treatment combined with Western medical treatment can regulate the immune function of severe and critical COVID-19 patients
inhibit their inflammatory response
improve tissue hypoxia and hypoperfusion
effectively alleviate symptoms
and thus improve the clinical efficacy.
