ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the pharmacological effects and clinical application of rhubarb. Methods: 70 patients were selected as the experimental research objects, including various diseases, such as intestinal obstruction, acute pancreatitis, etc.. All of them met the experimental entry criteria, and the patients were divided into two groups, each with 35 cases. Compare the clinical efficacy, hospitalization time, and symptom relief time between the control group using conventional treatment and rhubarb treatment. Results: In the observation group treated with rhubarb, the number of patients with markedly effective, effective and ineffective treatment were 19, 14 and 2 respectively. In contrast, the control group using conventional therapy included 16 markedly effective, 13 effective and 6 ineffective. The effective rate of treatment in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). Secondly, clinical indicators such as hospitalization time and symptom relief time of patients in the observation group were also significantly better than those in the control group. And there was statistical significance among the data (P<0.05). Conclusion: Antidiarrheal, antibacterial, antiviral, hemostasis, etc. are the main pharmacological effects of rhubarb, which can effectively alleviate the clinical symptoms of patients and improve the curative effect during its practical application.
