OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of Sini Decoction (SND) on ischemia/reperfusion injury in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS: Randomized case-control clinical trial was conducted to observe the change of Holter monitoring in 22 cases of AMI treated with thrombolytic therapy before and after treatment. RESULTS: The lasting time of acute ST segment, total burden of myocardial infarction, QRS score, QT dispersion and occurrence of reperfusion arrhythmia in patients received SND treatment were lower than those untreated with SND (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: SND is helpful in improving reperfusion injury of thrombolytic therapy in AMI patients.
