Coronary heart disease is a common disease that seriously endangers human health. Interventional treatment (stenting) opens the narrowed and occluded blood vessels of the heart by mechanical means, thus achieving rapid improvement of myocardial ischemia, which obviously improves the success rate of saving acute myocardial infarction and relieves angina attacks in some patients with coronary heart disease. However, after coronary intervention, it is not equal to coronary heart disease has been cured, its basic pathological changes still exist, such as abnormal lipid metabolism, endothelial damage, platelet aggregation, plaque formation; and there may be some new pathological changes, such as capillary dysfunction, poor perfusion of myocardial tissue, inflammatory reaction, microthrombosis, acute or distant thrombosis, etc. A considerable number of patients still have many uncomfortable symptoms after the operation. There are still many uncomfortable symptoms, such as anterior cardiac pain, chest tightness, shortness of breath, weakness, and panic, which may require another stent or even bypass surgery, bringing a heavy economic burden to patients and families. Some patients show gastrointestinal bleeding manifestations such as vomiting blood and black stool due to long-term use of dual anti-platelet drugs. Some patients are aware of the seriousness of the disease after intervention, or are still troubled by discomfort such as chest pain and chest tightness after intervention, and tend to develop sleep disorders, mental tension, sadness, excessive thinking and other anxiety and depression, which seriously affect the quality of life of postoperative patients.

The Cardiovascular Center of Xiyuan Hospital, Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, led by academician Chen Keji and researcher Shi Dazhuo, has made significant progress in preventing restenosis after interventional coronary heart disease by using blood-vitalizing and stasis-transforming herbs, and has confirmed that combined Chinese and Western medicine treatment can significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative restenosis, reduce the recurrence of angina pectoris, and lower the incidence of postoperative cardiovascular events according to the internationally recognized evidence-based medical method. This achievement won the First Prize of Science and Technology of the Chinese Society of Integrative Medicine. In addition, based on the standardized treatment of Western medicine, we provide Chinese medicine evidence-based treatment for post-interventional patients with coronary heart disease, which can significantly promote post-operative recovery, reduce chest tightness, shortness of breath, weakness and other uncomfortable symptoms, improve the anxiety state, and significantly improve the quality of life of patients. The advantages of Chinese and Western medicine complement each other, and patients receive one-stop and individualized treatment, which has produced good social benefits.
