Tanhuo Decoction for Acute Coronary Syndrome With Cerebral Atherosclerosis in Elderly Patients
Sponsor: Jinggang Xia, MD
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Tanhuo decoction works to treat acute coronary syndrome combined with cerebral atherosclerosis in the elderly. It will also learn about the safety of Tanhuo decoction. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can Tanhuo decoction reduce inflammatory markers in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome combined with cerebral atherosclerosis and decrease the occurrence of adverse cardiovascular events? What medical problems do participants have when taking Tanhuo decoction? Researchers will compare Tanhuo decoction to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Tanhuo decoction works to treat acute coronary syndrome combined with cerebral atherosclerosis in the elderly. Participants will:Take Tanhuo decoction or a placebo every day for a week. undergo laboratory tests and echocardiography at baseline (before starting the medication), on day 7, and at 1 month after initiation, and will complete telephone follow-ups during hospitalization and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after discharge.
