What this trial studies

This observational study investigates the effects of the Fuzheng Yangxin prescription on the rapid rehabilitation of patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and are diagnosed with Qi-Yin deficiency syndrome. The study aims to assess the efficacy of this traditional Chinese herbal treatment compared to a placebo in improving recovery outcomes post-surgery. Participants will be monitored for their recovery progress and overall health status following the intervention. The study is particularly relevant given the rising prevalence of coronary heart disease and the increasing number of CABG procedures performed annually.
