NCT04694755

Brief Summary

Taking the patients with chronic respiratory failure caused by COPD as the research object and the acute exacerbation of COPD as the main outcome index, the investigators hope to establish the syndrome differentiation and treatment scheme of COPD treated by traditional Chinese medicine, reduce the acute exacerbation of AECOPD, improve the clinical symptoms, improve the quality of life, reduce the mortality, preliminarily explore the mechanism of action, and lay the foundation for further research.

Study Arms (4)

Heart lung qi deficiency syndrome placebo group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Buyixinfei placebo was given.Tianjiang brand formula granules were used. One dose a day, two times orally, five days a week.

Drug: Placebo

Deficiency of lung and Kidney Qi placebo group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Tonifying kidney and protecting lung prescription placebo was given. Tianjiang brand granule was used as the drug, one dose a day, twice orally, five days a week.

Drug: Placebo

Heart lung qi deficiency syndrome drugs group

EXPERIMENTAL

Buyixinfei formula was given. Tianjiang brand granule was used as the drug, one dose a day, twice orally, five days a week.

Drug: Traditional Chinese medicine prescription

Deficiency of lung and Kidney Qi drugs group

EXPERIMENTAL

The prescription of invigorating the kidney and protecting the lung was given. The drug was Tianjiang brand granule, one dose a day, two times orally, five days a week

Drug: Traditional Chinese medicine prescription

Interventions

On the basis of dextrin and bitter agent, 5% of the drug was used to prepare.Its appearance, weight, color and smell are basically the same as traditional Chinese medicine granule.Tianjiang brand formula granules, in line with GMP standards

It is jointly completed by the person in charge of the project, the drug preparation personnel and the statistician, and the two-level blind method is adopted. Blinding at the first level: that is to say, blinding is set for experimental Chinese medicine. The test drug and the control drug shall be packed uniformly; the second level shall be provided with blindness, that is, the number of the test drug packaging box shall be provided with blindness.
