ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of Buflomedil Injection plus backwards traction and functional exercises on the hemorheology of patients with vertebral artery type of cervical spondylosis. METHODS:Sixty patients with vertebral artery type of cervical spondylosis were treated with 0.2 g Buflomedil Injection (diluted with 500 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Solution or 5% Glucose Solution,q.d by slow iv gtt for two courses of treatment with 7 days defined as 1 course) plus backwards traction and functional exercises. Patients' hemorheologic parameters including blood viscosity high shear rate,blood viscosity low shear rate,plasma viscosity,erythrocyte aggregation index,erythrocyte rigidity index,hematocrit,and fibrinogen etc were detected before and after treatment. RESULTS:Before treatment,all the hemorheologic parameters were significantly higher than the reference values of healthy adults(P
