Title: Overview of Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine on Heart Dailure with Preserved Ejection Fraction(HFpEF)

The diagnostic criteria of Western medicine can be simply summarized as 1+1+1 diagnosis mode. Because this disease is widely found in elderly patients, especially more common in women,and most of the patients have basic disease such as hypertension, diabetes,coronary disease, atrial fibrillation etc,this kind of disease could become a bridge HFpEF. According the clinical manifestations of HFpEF,it can be attributed to cardiopalmus,palpitation,edema,thoracic obstruction etc. HFpEF was first named as heart failure by Ren Jixue,and then Zhang Boli and Xue Boyu take heart failure as an independent disease in heart-system disease for the first time. The primary factor is insufficiency of the Xin Qi, and deficiency of both Xin Qi and Xin Yin become more common,with blood stasis,retained fluid and phlegm etc. Those function in grade Ⅰ- Ⅲ,and more common in the latent syndrome, 1 stage and 2 stage of failure. Western medicine has no specific measures,but mainly uses symptomatic treatment. According the deficiency of Xin Qi and/or Xin Yin of TCM treatment,Shengmai San, Zhigancao Decoction, etc have been widely used. Treatment goals of TCM and Western medicine are not only better symptoms or improve the quality of life, but also treat from the structure, function, cell biology or other further methods. Ventricular remodeling is the inherent factor of latent syndrome of failure,which is closely related with the blood stasis,and the Yin asthenia could cause blood stasis,leading that Xin Qi cannot promote the normal operation of blood in the vessel without enough Xin Qi and Xin Yin. The mainly treatment of HFpEF is Yi Qi Yang Yin,accompanied by HuoXueHuaYu、HuaTanQuShi. In the purpose of seeking for a long-term and more corrective strategy,the perspective of improving cardiac pathological change was proposed.Read More
