OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical curative effect of dengzhanhua injection on acute cerebral infarction. METHODS: One hundred cases of acute cerebral infarction were treated with dengzhanhua injection (Group A) and 62 treated with fufangdanshen injection (Group B). The curative effects and the patients' hemorrheology and lipemia before and after the treatment were compared. RESULTS: The total effective rate and evidently effective rate of Group A were significantly higher than those of Group B (92.0% vs. 75.8%, 44.0 vs. 29.0%, P < 0.01). The levels of hemorrheology and lipemia in 72 hyperviscosityemia patients and 76 hyperlipidemia patients in Group A were significantly improved after the treatment. The integral difference of nerve function injury and the obsorbed situation of infarct focus in Group A were significantly higher than those in Group B. Group A had no adverse reaction during the treatment. CONCLUSION: Dengzhanhua injection in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction is safe and effective.
