心力衰竭是世界范围内死亡的主要原因之一，是多种心血管疾病的终末期。中医药治疗心力衰竭已有很长的历史。直到最近，精心设计的临床试验才被投入实践，以研究中药的功效。人们还进行了广泛的研究来探索中药药理作用的潜在机制。本文对近年来治疗心力衰竭的常用中药、方剂及中成药进行综述，并对近年来发表的中药治疗心血管疾病的临床评价进行综述。本文还对中药发挥心脏保护作用的机制进行了综述。最后指出了目前研究的局限性和中医药现代化面临的挑战。
Heart failure is one of the major causes of mortality worldwide and it is the end stage of sev-eral cardiovascular diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine has been used in the management of heart failure for a long time. Only until recently, well-designed clinical trials have been put into practice to study the efficacies of Chinese herbs. Extensive studies have also been carried out to explore the under-lying mechanisms of pharmaceutical actions of Chinese herbs. In this study, we will summarize the frequently used Chinese herbs, formulae and patent Chinese drugs in treating patients with heart failure and review published clinical evaluations of Chinese herbs in treating cardiovascular diseases. The mechanisms by which Chinese herbs exert cardio-protective effects will also be reviewed. In the end, we will point out the limitations of current studies and challenges facing modernization of traditional Chi-nese medicine.
