ABSTRACT
Objective@#To observe the curative effect of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment for novel coronavirus pneumonia (novel coronavirus pneumonia, NCP) patients and the preventive effect for Chinese medical staff.@*Methods@#A total of 62 NCP suspected patients admitted in 2020 were treated with TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment, as well as our hospital medical staff with No.1-4 hospital prescription.@*Results@#After taking traditional Chinese medicine, 16 out of 25 NCP suspected patients with phlegm heat stagnating lung syndrome were discharged to home for isolation observation, 4 patients hospitalized for observation, and 5 patients confirmed with NCP. For 15 patients with phlegm dampness accumulating lung syndrome, 7 patients were discharged to home for isolation observation, 3 patients were hospitalized for observation and 5 patients have been confirmed. For 18 patients with spleen stomach disharmony syndrome, 15 patients were discharged to home for isolation observation, 1 patient was hospitalized for observation and 2 patients have been confirmed. For 4 patients with Qi deficiency and dampness stagnation syndrome were discharged to home for isolation observation, 1 patient was hospitalized for observation, and two have been confirmed. The duration of taking traditional Chinese medicine was 1 to 20 days from admission to be discharged. The doctors and nurses who took the prescription of TCM for 12 to 15 days have been prevented from NCP infection.@*Conclusions@#The clinical effect and the preventive effect of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment for NCP have been proved to be satisfactory. TCM can go into the primary hospital for treatment and prevention on NCP.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the curative effect of TCM treatment based on syndrome differentiation for suspected COVID-19 patients and the preventive effect of TCM prescription for medical personnel.Methods:A total of 62 suspected COVID-19 suspected patients, who were included into the hospital from Jan 23rd to Feb 9th 2020, were treated by TCM methods according to their syndromes; the medical personnel were also treated with No.1-4 hospital-made prescription.Results:After taking traditional Chinese medicine priscription, 16 out of 25 COVID-19 suspected patients with phlegm heat stagnating lung syndrome were discharged, back home for isolated observation, 4 patients were hospitalized for observation, and 5 patients confirmed with COVID-19; Among the 15 patients with phlegm dampness accumulating lung syndrome, 7 patients were discharged back home for isolated observation, 3 patients were hospitalized for observation and 5 patients have been confirmed. Among 18 patients with spleen stomach disharmony syndrome, 15 patients were discharged back home for isolated observation, 1 patient was hospitalized for observation and 2 patients were confirmed. Among 4 patients with Qi deficiency and dampness stagnation syndrome, 1 were discharged back home for isolated observation, 1 patient was hospitalized for observation, and two have been confirmed. The time-span from admission to be discharged of taking prescription was 1 to 20 days and there waw no case of infection for medical personnel who took the prescription for 12 to 15 days.Conclusions:The clinical and preventive effec of TCM syndrome differentiation for suspected COVID-19 have been proved to be satisfactory.
