Abstract

Objective: To study the effect of Yang Xue Qing Nao Granule (YXQNG) on the chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI).

Methods: 80 cases with CCI were divided randomly into treatment group (43 cases) and control group (37 cases). Each group was disposed with intravenous drops of energy mixture. Besides, treatment group was prescribed with YXQNG, control group received nimedipine plates. The whole therapeutic process of each group was 30 days. The vertibrobasal artery systolic end maximum flow rate (VBASEMFR) and blood rheology (BR) were tested before and after treatment.

Results: The total efficiency of treatment group was 90.70% (P < 0.05). The effect of treatment group on lowering blood viscosity and enhancing the cerebral blood flow rate was better than that of control group (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: YXQNG can effectively treat CCI and improve the life quality of patients.
