[Effectiveness of vilarinum, a natural adaptogen, in rehabilitation of patients after coronary bypass surgery].

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of vilarinum, a natural adaptogen, in the complex rehabilitation of patients with CHD after coronary bypass surgery (CBS). The subjects were 130 patients, whose sanatory treatment began 28.3 +/- 3.1 days after surgery. They were randomized into two groups according to the therapy they received: the main group included 90 patients who were administered vilarinum in addition to conventional treatment (beta-adrenoblockers, antiaggregants, and statins); the control group consisted of 50 patients on standard therapy. The patients were examined clinically when they were included in the study, and after it was finished. The psychosomatic status was evaluated by standard techniques recommended by Scientific Center of Cardiology of RAMS. This clinicoinstrumental study confirmed high clinical effectiveness of a course of vilarinum during the period of rehabilitation after CBS. The safety of the preparation allows its hospital and outpatient application.
