Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect and safety of Safflower Yellow injection (SYI) in treating coronary heart disease angina pectoris (CHD-AP) with Xin-blood stagnation syndrome (XBSS).Methods: Adopted was the multi-centered, randomized, positive parallel controlled method, 448 patients with CHD-AP-XBSS were enrolled and divided into two groups, 336 in the tested group treated with SYI and 112 in the control group treated with Salvia injection by intravenous dripping once a day for 14 days, so as to observe the conditions of angina, electrocardiogram, and therapeutic effect on traditinal Chinese medicine (TCM) symptoms as well as the safety of the treatment.Results: The significantly effective rate and total effective rate in the tested group were 60.06% (194/323) and 91.02% (294/323) respectively; those in improvement of TCM symptoms were 40.18% (129/321) and 75. 23% (243/323) respectively, which were better than those in the control group (P<0.01).Conclusion: SYI Injection is effective and safe in treating CHD-AP-XBSS.
