Brief summary

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fuzheng Yangxin Formula (FZYXF) in the treatment of qi-yin deficiency syndrome after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), formulate an integrated Chinese and Western medicine rehabilitation protocol, develop special proprietary Chinese medicines for postoperative patients, establish a postoperative rehabilitation database, and promote the standardized application and achievement transformation of integrated Chinese and Western medicine therapy in cardiac surgery.

Detailed description

This study adopts a randomized controlled trial design. A total of 230 patients presenting with qi-yin deficiency syndrome after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) will be enrolled and randomly assigned to the Fuzheng Yangxin Formula (FZYXF) experimental group (115 patients) and the control group (115 patients). The primary outcome is the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) score at 7 days after medication. Secondary outcomes include perioperative safety and follow-up health assessments to comprehensively evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety.

Interventions

DRUGFZYX

Intervention: Fuzheng Yangxin Formula granules combined with routine postoperative management. The formula consists of Radix Ginseng 20 g, processed Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata 10 g (pre-decocted), Radix Astragali 30 g, Radix Ophiopogonis 20 g, Radix Angelicae Sinensis 15 g, Radix Rehmanniae 15 g, Radix Rhodiolae 30 g, Radix Notoginseng powder 6 g (mixed with warm water for oral use).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Length of StayPerioperativeThe postoperative length of hospital stay
Follow-up Major Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE)up to 12 monthsThe incidence of MACCE, which includes all-cause mortality, repeat bypass surgery or stenting, acute myocardial infarction, and stroke.
Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) Scoresup to 12 monthsEvaluation of the patient's health and angina status, including the total score and scores across 5 dimensions: physical limitation, angina stability, angina frequency, treatment satisfaction, and disease perception.
Incidence of poor wound healing.up to 30 daysAssessed by routine postoperative clinical physical examination. A positive event is defined as the presence of any of the following: local wound dehiscence (splitting open), abnormal wound exudate (purulent or serous drainage), or the need for secondary surgical suturing/re-suturing. Number and percentage of participants with poor wound healing (number of events / total participants in group × 100%).
Perioperative MACCEPerioperativeComposite endpoint before discharge, including death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and revascularization
Graft patencyperioperativegraft patency rate (assessed by angiography),Using the Fitz-Gibbon grading system, grade A and grade B are considered patent.
