Abstract: Objective To investigate the curative effect of Yiqi Shugan Xingpi Huashi Tongluo therapy combined
with western medicine in treatment of HBV-related liver failure. Methods Total of 232 cases with HBV-related
liver failure were selected and randomly divided into western medicine group (119 cases) and integrated traditional
Chinese and western medicine group (113 cases). Patients in western medicine group were given western combined
therapy, while patients in integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine group were given Gan-pi-shu-luo
decoction on the basis of western medicine group. Curative effect, mortality rate, complication rate, artificial liver
number and traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) syndrome integral were compared. Results After 2 weeks’
treatment, the serum TBil and DBil levels of patients in integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine group
were significantly lower than those in western medicine group (F = 6.477, 11.700; P = 0.002, 0.001), and the
decrease of serum TBil was also significantly higher than that in western medicine group (F = 11.7,P < 0.001).
After 24 weeks’ treatment, the artificial liver number and cost of patients in integrated traditional Chinese and
western medicine group were significantly lower than those in western medicine group (F = 4.76, 9.065; P = 0.03,
0.004). The TCM syndrome of patients in integral integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine group were
significantly lower than those in western medicine group at week 1, week 2, week 3, week 4 and week 8 (P < 0.05).
Conclusions Yiqi Shugan Xingpi Huashi Tongluo therapy combined with western medicine can effectively improve
liver function, reduce mortality and requency or cost of artificial liver therapy of patients with HBV-related liver
failure, which is worthy of further research and clinical application.
