Objective:To observe therapeutic effect of the method for descending the lung-qi and promoting production of the body fluid combined with hormones and antibiotics on radiation pneumonia.Methods:Selected patients of radiation pneumenia were divided into two groups.A control group(n=51) was treated by simple hormones and antibiotics
a treatment group (n=53) treated with the method for descending the lung-qi and promoting production of the body fluid combined with hormones and antibiotics.The therapeutic effects on radiation pneumonia
quality of life
changes of roentgenogram and TCM symptoms were observed.Results:After treatment
the therapeutic effect on radiation pneumonia
quality of life
changes of roentgenogram and TCM symptoms in the treatment group were significantly superior to those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:The method for descending the lung-qi and promoting production of the body fluid combined with hormones and antibiotics has a definite therapeutic effect on radiation pneumonia
and the effective rate of the treatment group was markedly higher than the control.The improvement of quality of life of the patients treated by the combined therapy was also superior to that by hormones and antibiotics treatment.
