Effect of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy for acute hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage: a meta-analysis.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is an important public health problem associated with high mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of integrated traditional Chinese (TCM) and Western medicine (WM) therapy for acute hypertensive ICH. Randomized controlled trials were searched in PubMed, Medline, Embase, Wanfang and CNKI database published between January 2000 and June 2016. Our results showed that integrated TCM and WM therapy appeared to be able to improve the clinical effect for patients with acute hypertensive ICH.
