Abstract

Objective:To observe the effect of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine therapy in the treatment of herpes simplex keratitis.Method:50 cases with herpes simplex keratitis were divided into observation group(n=25,29 eyes)and control group(n=25,28 eyes).Control group were treated with ribavirin eye drops,gatifloxacin hydrochloride eye-drops,ganciclovir eye-drops and orally taken vitamin B2,C,AD,acyclovir tablets and intervenous injected ribavirin;while observation group were added herbal prescription.The effect of two groups were compared.Result:In observation group,27 eyes were cured and 2 eyes had obvious effect,the curative time was(7±2.3)d,and the 1 year recurrent rate was 3.5%;in control group,20 eyes were cured,4 had obvious effect and 4 had no effect,the curative time was(20±3.6)d,and the 1 year recurrent rate was 34.5%.Two groups' treatment effect,healing time and recurrence rate had significant difference(P0.01,P0.05,P0.01).Conclusion:The integrated Chinese-Western therapy of herpes simplex keratitis combine dynamic nursing can improve the effect,shorten treatment course,decrease recurrence and save medical expense.
