Abstract: Objective To explore the application effect of Xuezhikang Capsule combined with pravastatin sodium tablets on elderly patients with chronic heart failure after acute myocardial infarction and its impact on neuroendocrine factors. Methods Eighty patients with chronic heart failure after acute myocardial infarction admitted to Chuiyangliu Hospital in Beijing from June 2022 to April 2023 were selected for study. They were divided into three groups by lot drawing, namely, control group (n=30), observation group A (n=25) and observation group B (n=25). After giving conventional treatment to the control group, observe the patients in group A to add pravastatin sodium tablets on the basis of the control group, and increase the oral administration of Xuezhikang Capsule on the basis of observation group A. The clinical efficacy of the three groups of patients was compared, and the levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), plasma renin (PRA), Aldosterone (ALD), and angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ) related endocrine factors were compared with the changes of left ventricular Ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV), and left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV) related cardiac function indexes. Results The total effective rate of Group B was significantly higher than that of the control group and Group A, and Group A was higher than the control group (P<0.05); After treatment, the levels of BNP, PRA, ALD, and Ang II in the three groups of patients decreased, and the observation group B was lower than the control group and observation group A, while the observation group A was lower than the control group (P<0.05); After treatment, the LVEF of the three groups of patients increased, and Group B was observed to be higher than the control group and Group A. Group A was observed to be higher than the control group, while LVESV and LVEDV decreased. Group B was observed to be lower than the control group and Group A, and Group A was observed to be lower than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The combination of Xuezhikang Capsule and Pravastatin Sodium Tablets has a significant therapeutic effect on elderly patients with chronic heart failure after acute myocardial infarction, and can reduce the levels of neuroendocrine factors and improve heart function, which is worthy of clinical application.
