The active component of Huang Lian ([symbol: see text] Rhizoma Coptidis) can prolong the myocardial action potential and antagonize the chloroform-, aconitine-, barium chloride-, epinephrine- or coronary ligation-induced arrhythmia by blocking the calcium channel. Ku Shen ([symbol: see text] Radix Sophorae Flavescentis) contains matrine and flavones, which act as quinidine to decrease the excitability of the myocardium, prolong the refractory period, and inhibit the ectopic cardiac rhythm. And Dan Shen ([symbol: see text] Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae) has the action of improving the ischemic state of the myocardium by dilating the coronary vessels. In conclusion, the definite therapeutic effects of Huang Lian Sheng Mai Yin in treating ventricular, atrial and nodal arrhythmia suggests that the prescription is rational and accords with the therapeutic principle of TCM. Except discomfort in the gastric cavity and poor appetite experienced by some patients, there is no toxic or adverse reaction.展开更多

Methods Sixty-four cases of premature heartbeats were randomly divided into an observation group (n=33) and a control group (n=31). In the observation group, acupuncture was applied in light of regulating the heart and calming down the mind. The acupoints were Língtái (灵台 GV 10), Shéndào (神道 GV 11), Nèiguān (内关 PC 6) and Bǎihuì (百会 GV 20). In the control group, acupuncture was applied at Nèiguān (内关 PC 6). The dynamic electrocardiogram (DCG) was measured before and after treatment in each group separately. Results The total effective rate was 63.6% (21/33) in the observation group and was 38.7% (12/31) in the control group, indicating the statistically significant difference in comparison (P〈0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture in light of regulating the heart and calming down the mind is the good approach for the treatment of premature heartbeats.展开更多
