Abstract: Objective:To observe the curative effect of combination of routine medications and Carvedilol on chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:Forty patients with CHF,whose cardiac function levels were between Ⅲ and Ⅳ,were randomized into therapy group and control group,twenty patients in each group.The patients in control group were treated with routine medications,and the other patients were treated with combination of routine medications and Carvedilol.After eighteen weeks'treatment,the changes of cardiac function,inner diameter of left ventricle at the end of diastole,and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)of all patients were observed.Results:The overall efficacy rate of therapy group was 95.0%,much higher than that of comparison group(65.0%,P0.05).After treatment,the difference of inner diameter of left ventricle at the end of diastole and LVEF of therapy group were significant,compared with those of comparison group(P0.05).Conclusion:The Therapeutic effect of combination of routine medications and Carvedilol on CHF is good.Carvidilol plays an important role in the therapy of CHF.
