Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of Shenmai injection (SMI) on infantile viral myocarditis.Methods: Fifty patients were treated with SMI combined with routine Western medicines, the effects were observed and compared with those treated with Western medicines alone or compound Salviae liquid.Results: The cardiac function and cellular immunity of patients treated with SMI were significantly improved. The effect of SMI was superior to that of control groups.Conclusion: Using SMI as supplementary treatment in treating infantile viral myocarditis was helpful in recovery of cardiac function and cellular immunity.
