[Clinical observation on 206 cases with lower limb deep venous thrombosis treated by integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine].
OBJECTIVE
To study the pathogenetic mechanism of lower limb deep venous thrombosis (DVT).


METHODS
Thrombosis test in vitro of 206 cases with lower limb DVT was measured. All of them were treated by integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine (TCM-WM).


RESULTS
The indexes of thrombosis test in vitro of patients were much higher than those of normal subjects (P < 0.001). The relevent indexes were different in types distribution according to differentiation of symptoms and signs (P < 0.01-0.001) and between before and after treatment (P < 0.001). It showed that hypercoagulability of blood occurred even if after the occurence of DVT. Changes of indexes might be objective parameters for Syndrome Differentiation in TCM. The indexes became lower when state of illness was improving.


CONCLUSIONS
The therapy of TCM-WM has good efficacy for DVT.
