Summary

This study looks at whether a traditional Chinese herbal prescription called Fuzheng Yangxin can help people recover more quickly after coronary artery bypass grafting. Researchers will follow 300 patients with a specific post-surgery syndrome (Qi-Yin deficiency) to see if the herb improves chest pain, quality of life, and safety compared to a placebo. The goal is to create a combined Chinese-Western medicine recovery plan.
