Cerebral hemorrhage is one of the critical and severe neurological diseases. Constipation is common after operation. It is difficult to see the patient's dry stool, obstruction of the lower part, heat and yin deficiency, which puzzles clinicians. Modern medicine has less means to improve postoperative constipation. Zengye Chengqi Decoction can not only promote gastrointestinal motility, improve intestinal flora imbalance, regulate neuropeptide secretion, but also improve immunity, reduce serum inflammatory factors, reduce intracranial pressure, improve blood viscosity, reduce cerebral edema, protect cardiovascular, antioxidant and protect organs. It has the effect of laxative, nourishing yin and clearing heat on constipation after cerebral hemorrhage. It can really improve the symptoms of heat and yin deficiency such as abdominal distension, dry nose and mouth, high fever and sweating fatigue, reduce the occurrence of complications such as rebleeding, and help postoperative recovery. It provides new ideas for the prevention and treatment of cerebral hemorrhage related diseases by integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and provides new means of diagnosis and treatment for clinicians.
