ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of Tongsai Xiaoshuan Decoction on the treatment of 30 stroke patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods 30 patients were treated with Tongsai Xiaoshuan Decoction. 28 patients treated regularly were served as controls. Both group were performed CT/MRI and Polysomnography examination before and after treatment. Their apnea and hypoventilation index were recorded. Results The efficiency of Tongsai Xiaoshuan Decoction was evident. The apnea and hypoventilation index were decreased, the medial hypopnoea time decreased, and the medial time for SaO2 less than 90% decreased. Comparing with the regular group, the difference was significant (P
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe characteristics of TCM syndrome types in the patient of cerebral infarction,and cerebral infarction with respiratory disorder at sleep.Methods:90 in-patients of cerebral infarction were monitored by polychannel sommocinematogram (PSG)within 72 hours of admission,which were used as diagnosis of respiratory disturbance at sleep,and all of the patients with apoplexy involving the channels and collaterals were divided into 3 types,collaterals hollow and pathogenic wind attacking the interior;Yin-deficiency of the liver and kidney,and wind-Yang stirring upper,hot phlegm and excess of Fu-organs,and wind- phlegm stirring the upper.Results:The patient had sleep structure disorder,with large change of blood pressure and lower heart variety,and decrease of degree of blood oxygen saturation.The apnea indexes were the highest for the patient with phlegm-heat hollow-organ excess,wind-phlegm stirring the upper,and baic normal for collateral hollow and pathogenic wind attacking the interior.Conclusion:There is close relation of cerebral infarction,especially in the patient of hot phlegm and excess of Fu-organ, with respiratory disorder at sleep.
