Objective:To observe the clinical effect of treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy in the integrative medicine.Methods:41 cases were randomly divided into treatment group for 21 cases and control group for 20 cases,in which,control group applying Western medicine hypoglycemic and symptomatic treatment,based on that,treatment group plus Huoxue Tongluo decoction for 30 days as a course,and observed 2 courses.Results:The efficacy rate in treatment group was 80.4%,and control group was 45.0%,which showed that treatment group was better than control group(P0.01).Compared nerve conduction velocity,treatment group was better than control group(P0.01 or P0.05).After treatment,FBG decreased in the treatment group,but which had no statistically significant,while HbAIc obviously decreased,which had statistically significant(P0.01).Conclusion:Effects of Huoxue Tongluo decoction plus Western medicine treat DPN was obviously better only Western medicine.
