OBJECTIVE: To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of Xingnaojing and naloxone hydrochloride in the treatment of coma patients with cerebral hemorrhage. METHODS: 126 coma patients with cerebral hemorrhage were randomly assigned into Xingnaojing group and naloxone hydrochloride group with 63 cases in each group. Both groups were given 20% mannitol or and dexamethasone intravenously for dehydration therapy and other basic treatment. Xingnaojing group was given Xingnaojing injection 20 ml added into 5% Glucose injection 250 ml, ivgtt, qd; naloxone hydrochloride group was given Naloxone hydrochloride injection 4 mg added into 5% Glucose injection 250 ml, ivgtt, qd. Clinical efficacy, length of stay, NIHSS before and after discharge, GCS and cerebral hematoma volume before and after treatment were observed in 2 groups, and ADR was recorded. RESULTS: The total effective rate of observation group was 88.89%, which was significantly higher than that of control group (74.61%), with statistical significance (P<0.05); average length of stay in observation group was (17.5±8.8)d, which was significantly lower than (28.4±10.3)d of control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). NIHSS of patients before discharge and 3 months after discharge were significantly lower than before admission, and the naloxone hydrochloride group was lower than the Xinnaojing group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment, GCS were increased significantly and cerebral hematoma volume of 2 groups were significantly lower before treatment, and the naloxone hydrochloride group was lower than the Xingnaojing group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Naloxone hydrochloride is better than Xingnaojing in improving neurological recovery and clinical efficacy, and shows good safety.
