RESUMEN
Objective To explore the characteristics of TCM syndromes of acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Methods Clinical data of 127 ACS patients were collected and then a database was established.After that,the distribution of syndrome patterns was analyzed.Results The incidences of the following excess syndrome patterns were in a decreasing sequence:stasis syndrome,phlegm syndrome,cold syndrome and heat syndromes.The incidence of stasis syndrome was 90.5%,which was much higher than other excess syndromes.The incidences of the following deficiency syndrome patterns were in a decreasing sequence:heart-Qi deficiency syndrome,heart-Qi exhaustion syndrome,heart-yin deficiency syndrome,heart-Qi depletion syndrome,heart-kidney deficiency syndrome and heart-blood deficiency syndrome.The incidence of heart-Qi deficiency syndrome was 75.6%,which was much higher than other deficiency syndromes.The incidences of the stasis syndrome and cold syndrome in acute myocardial infarction(AMI)were higher than those in unstable angina(UA),and the incidences of heart-Qi deficiency syndrome and heart-Qi exhaustion syndrome in AMI were higher than those in UA(P
