Abstract

Objective To explore the clinical effect of umbilical moxibustion on chronic heart failure with yang deficiency and blood stasis and water retention syndrome. Methods 80 patients with chronic heart failure who were hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology, Shenzhen Hospital (Longgang), Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022 were selected as research samples and randomly divided into control group (40 cases, 40 cases completed) and observation group (40 cases, 40 cases completed). The control group received standard drug treatment, while the observation group received umbilical moxibustion treatment on the basis of drug treatment. Ten days after treatment, NT-proBNP, NYHA cardiac function classification, cardiac color Doppler indexes (including LVEF, LVEDD, LVSD), Minnesota quality of life score, 6-minute walking distance and TCM syndrome score were compared between the two groups before and after treatment, and the occurrence of adverse reactions was monitored and recorded. Results The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (χ2 = 3.865, P = 0.049). NYHA cardiac function classification, NT-proBNP, LVEF, LVEDD, LVESD and 6-minute walking distance in both groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment, and the improvement of the above indexes in the observation group was more significant (P < 0.05). The Minnesota quality of life score and TCM syndrome score of the two groups decreased compared with those before treatment, and the decline of the patients in the observation group exceeded that of the control group (P < 0.05). During the treatment, the two groups had adverse reactions (such as gastrointestinal reaction, hypotension, skin allergy, etc.), and there was no difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion On the basis of drug therapy, umbilical moxibustion is better than simple drug therapy in treating chronic heart failure with yang deficiency, blood stasis and water stagnation, which can improve the cardiac function and quality of life of patients with chronic heart failure.
