Abstract
Objective: To study the clinical curative effects of Angong Niuhuang Pills in the treatment of severe heat stroke and its influence on the rescue efficiency of patients.
Methods: A total of 76 patients with severe heat stroke who were treated in our hospital were selected from January 2021 to December 2022. According to the sequence of admission, 38 patients in the control group (2021.1-12) received comprehensive western medicine therapy, and 38 sufferers in the observation group (2022.1-12) received Angong Niuhuang Pills on this basis. The body temperature monitoring results at 120 minutes after admission, inflammatory factor levels, relevant biochemical indicators, brain injury indicators, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation system II (APACHE II) score, clinical curative effect, clinical related recovery indicators, and the occurrence of organ function damage were compared between the 2 groups.
Results: The body temperature of patients in the observation one was less than that of the control one at 60 minutes, 90 minutes, and 120 minutes after admission, and the distinction had statistical significance (all P < .05); after the therapy, the levels of IL-1, IL-6, hs-CRP, TNF-α, ALT, BUN, Cr, MYO, S-100β protein, NSE, APACHEII score were all lower than those of the control one, and the distinction had statistical significance (all P < .05); the total clinical effective rate of the observation group (97.37%) was higher than that of the control group (81.58%), the recovery time of consciousness, rectal temperature recovery time and length of stay were all shorter than the control group, and the incidence of organ function damage (7.89%) was less than that of the control one (26.32%), and the distinction had statistical significance (all P < .05).
Conclusion: Angong Niuhuang Pills are safe and effective in the treatment of severe heatstroke sufferers, and can make the patients' body temperature return to the normal range in a short time, help to reduce inflammation reactions and play a protective role in the brain, and can shorten the recovery time of patients' consciousness and length of stay, with relatively high rescue efficiency.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
