Brief summary

A randomized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Yangxinshi tablets in improving the condition of patients with coronary heart disease complicated by cardiac dysfunction.

Detailed description

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the addition of Yangxinshi tablets to conventional treatment can reduce the composite endpoint time, increase exercise tolerance, and improve quality of life and mental health in patients with coronary heart disease complicated by cardiac dysfunction. A total of 2708 eligible patients were randomly divided into two groups. In addition to conventional treatment, the trial group was given Yangxinshi tablets (3 tablets/time, 3 times/day), while the control group was a blank control. The treatment cycle continued until the expected number of endpoint events was reached or the study ended, whichever occurred first. The primary endpoint was the composite endpoint of ischemic events or heart failure-related clinical events (including all-cause death, ischemia-driven revascularization, stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and readmission due to aggravated ACS or heart failure) during the study period.

Interventions

Basic treatment: All patients received a conventional treatment regimen, including outcome-improving drugs (aspirin, P2Y12 receptor inhibitor、β-blockers, statins, ARNI /ACEI/ARB, SGLT2i, and MRA) and symptom-relieving drugs (nitrates, calcium antagonists, and loop diuretic). Trial drug: Yangxinshi tablets, 3 tablets/3 times a day, taken orally

Patient Health Questionnaire - 9(PHQ-9) depression scaleAfter 24 and 48 weeks of treatmentThe Patient Health Questionnaire - 9(PHQ-9)depression scale comprises nine questions. In each assessment area, scores range from 0 to 3 based on the increasing frequency of difficult: 0 indicates not at all, 1 indicates sometimes, 2 indicates more than half the time, and 3 indicates almost every day. The total score ranges from 0 to 27,higher scores mean a worse outcome.
