Clinic studies on the elder patients with SARS with integrative TCM with WM

Understand the clinical features of elderly patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), the evolution of TCM syndromes, and evaluate the clinical efficacy of integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment. Methods The 41 elderly SARS patients diagnosed were randomly divided into the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine group and the Western medicine group. The two groups before and after treatment had fever days, clinical symptoms, lung inflammation, hormone and ventilator use, and oxygen saturation recovery. Controlled study. Results　The combined Chinese and Western medicine group was superior to the Western medicine group in reducing fever days, improving clinical symptoms, promoting lung inflammation absorption, shortening the days of hormones and ventilator use, and promoting the recovery of oxygen saturation, but there was no significant difference. The integrated Chinese and Western medicine group is significantly better than the Western medicine group in improving the cure rate and reducing the mortality rate, and there is a significant difference (P0.05). Conclusion　Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine has certain advantages in the treatment of elderly patients with SARS.
