Title: Effects of percutaneous coronary intervention via transradial artery access combined with metoprolol on cardiac function and vascular endothelial function in elderly patients with coronary heart disease
Author: Feng Cheng, Juan Xu
Abstract: This research was designed to unveil the impacts of percutaneous coronary intervention via transradial artery access (TRA-PCI) combined with metoprolol on cardiac function and vascular endothelial function in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Collectively, 112 CHD patients were enrolled and allocated into a control group (patients treated with TRA-PCI) and an observation group (patients treated with TRA-PCI and metoprolol) following the random number table method (n = 56 patients). The treatment outcome, cardiac function indicators, serum inflammatory factor indicators, vascular endothelial function indicators, and the occurrence of coronary restenosis were compared between the two groups. After treatment, elevated total effective rate was noted in CHD patients treated with TRA-PCI and metoprolol in contrast to TRA-PCI treatment alone. CHD patients treated with TRA-PCI and metoprolol alleviated cardiac function and vascular endothelial function and reduced inflammatory response and the occurrence of coronary restenosis in comparison to TRA-PCI treatment alone. TRA-PCI combined with metoprolol is effective in improving cardiac function and endothelial function, and reducing the degree of inflammation in the body and the occurrence of coronary restenosis in CHD patients.
