Abstract
    [Objective] To explore the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) syndromes and echocardiography in patients with chronic heart failure. [Methods] The 62 patients with chronic heart failure were selected, proceeded the strict Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation, and the two major syndromes of Qi Yin deficiency and Yang deficiency syndrome. The 2DE modified Simpson method was used to measure the index of cardiac structure, systolic function and diastolic function. [Results] 1) The LVPW and LVESD in the cardiac structure index were significantly positively correlated with LVEDD and LVPW, and the correlation coefficient (r=0.141) of LVPW and syndrome score was higher than that of(r=0.016). 2) In the, LVEF, CO, CI, LVFS and SV were significantly higher than those in the Qi deficiency group, LVESV, r=-0.154, and SV, LVEF, CO, LVEF, r=-0.151 and CI were significantly negative. 3) The EDV, E/A, and EDV were significantly negatively correlated with E/A and EDV and the correlation coefficient (r=-0.229) of and syndrome score was higher than that of (r=-0.027). [Conclusion] There is a certain correlation between cardiac ultrasound index and CHF type of TCM syndromes, syndrome score may be one of the sensitive indicators of LVPW, LVEF and CHF, and the higher the EDV, the higher LVPW, LVEF, EDV, and the heart function is worse, diastolic function is more serious. The above results can provide a reference for chronic heart failure Qi Yin deficiency, Qi Yang deficiency syndrome differentiation.
