Establishment of TCM Therapy for Diabetic Nephropathy and Standardization of Clinical Evaluation

Objective:To discuss the establishment clinical pathway of TCM treating diabetic nephropathy(DN)and evaluate the influence on hospital days,hospitalization expenses and clinical effect index.Methods:The clinical pathway of TCM treating DN was established and carried on.The pathway group contained 150 case,which were treated with TCM therapy.The 150 cases in control group were given routine therapy.The average hospital days,hospitalization expenses,mortality and satisfaction degrees in two groups were observed and compared.Results:The average hospital days,hospitalization expenses and clinical effect in pathway group were superior to those in control group,with significant difference.Conclusion:TCM therapy for DN can reduce the hospital days and expenses and improve the clinical effect,which is worthy of application.
