TCM Syndrome Analysis of Restenosis after Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty / 广州中医药大学学报

ABSTRACT

One hundred and twenty cases of restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) were subjected to TCM syndrome analysis.PTCA and support implantation were performed by routine method. The standard of TCM syndrome differentiation is subordinated to Professor Deng Tietao. The results showed that 78 cases (65%) were differentiated as Qi deficiency with phlegm-blood stasis, 13(11%) as yin deficiency with phlegm-blood stasis and 29 (24%)as phlegm-blood stagnation. It is indicated that Qi deficiency with phlegm-blood stasis is the main syndrome and reinforcing Qi dissipating phlegm and activating blood-flow may be a reasonable way of preventing and treating restenosis.
