ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of clopidogrel combined with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) on chronic pulmonary heart disease in patients with acute exacerbation.Methods Eighty cases of patients with chronic pulmonary heart disease with exacerbation were randomly divided into treatment group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases).Patients in control group were administrated with conventional treatment including infection control,cough,phlegm,relieving spasm and asthma,persistent low flow oxygen,maintain airway patency,strong heart,diuresis,anti arrhythmia.Patients in treatment group were treated with subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin and oral clopidogrel therapy beside routine treatment.Plasma prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),thrombin time (TT),fibrinogen(Fb) and pulmonary function(FEVI) were measured.Results (1) After treatment,Fb in treatment group and control group were (3.92 ± 1.11) g/L,(4.54 ± 1.41) g/L respectively.While PT,APTT,TT and FEVI in treatment group were (13.02 ± 1.52) s,(33.21 ± 4.03) s,(14.03 ± 2.52) s,(45.73 ± 7.38) ％ respectively,significantly higher than the control group ((11.31 ± 2.01) s,(30.13 ± 3.59) s,(12.88 ± 2.11) s and (40.12 ± 6.99) ％,P ＜0.05).(2) In control group,FEVI after treatment significantly improved than that of before treatment (t =4.821 ; P ＜ 0.05),while PT,APTT,TT were no significant changes (P ＞ 0.05).PT,APTT,TT,FEVI in treatment group were significantly improved after treatment than that of before treatment(P ＜ 0.05).(3) The clinical effective rate in treatment group was 80.0％ (32/40),higher than that in control group (65.0％(26/40) x2 =4.815; P ＜0.05).Conclusion The therapy scheme of clopidogrel combined with low molecular heparin calcium is proved to be an efficacy method for reducing sputum viscosity,antiinflammatory,anti allergic effect,platelet aggregation,increasing pulmonary blood flow,improving the condition of patients with pulmonary heart diseasethe.And its clinical effect is significant,worthy to promote and apply.
