Abstract:

Objective   To explore the therapeutic efficacy of Xuesaitong combined with Gastrodin for sudden deafness. Methods   150 patients with sudden deafness were randomly divided into the Xuesaitong group, the Gastrodin group and the combined group, with 50 cases in each group. The combined group was synchronously treated with Xuesaitong and Gastrodin. Their hearing therapeutic efficacies were compared. Results   The total effective rate and recovery rate were 72% and 20% in the Xuesaitong group, 68% and 18% in the Gastrodin group,and 88% and 38% in the combined group. They were significantly higher in the combined group than in the other two groups (all P<0.05). Conclusion   The combined therapy for sudden deafness is obviously better than individual therapy.
