Curative observation on enalapril combined with valsartan in treatment for chronic congestive heart failure

Objective To investigate the method and efficacy of enalapril combined with valsartan treatment for chronic congestive heart failure.Methods 70 selected hospital treated patients with chronic congestive heart failure were randomly and voluntarily divided into two groups,30 cases for control group using only enalapril treatment,40 cases for experimental group using enalapril combined with valsatan treatment.After 1 to 2 months follow-up,they were compared the clinical efficacy and echocardiographic changes.Results Compared between the two groups,total effective rate of experimental group patients was 95.0％,higher than that in control one (76.7％) (P＜ 0.05).The echocardiographic indicators in experimental group were significantly better than those of the control group (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Application of valsartan combined with enalapril treatment for chronic congestive heart failure can improve the echocardiography indicators and clinical efficacy.
