Clinical cure is a medical term that refers to the disappearance of all symptoms and signs after clinical treatment of a patient suffering from a disease. In layman’s terms, the disease is considered to be clinically cured when no abnormality is found in some relevant blood draws, physical examinations, imaging and other tests, and the patient complains of no significant discomfort. Many diseases can only be clinically cured but not completely cured, and patients even have to take medication for life, such as the very common diabetes and hypertension, which are treated for life. If the clinical cure of diabetes and hypertension means that the blood pressure and blood glucose are within the normal range after long-term oral medication to lower blood pressure and blood glucose, the patient’s blood pressure and blood glucose have no effect on the human body and are considered to be clinically cured, but these patients have to take medication for life, so they are not completely cured. For example, in the treatment of malignant tumors, the standard of clinical cure is no recurrence within five years, but this does not mean that the disease has been completely cured, because there are a few patients who have recurrence after five years, but the possibility of recurrence is relatively small, so the standard of clinical cure is still different for different diseases.
