Herbal medicine study for chest pain after stent placement
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a traditional Chinese herbal formula, Yiyang Huoluo Decoction, for people who still have chest discomfort after getting a stent for coronary heart disease. It aims to see if the herbal treatment can improve symptoms.
