Objective: To investigate the effect of rosuvastatin and atorvastatin in the treatment of elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: The subjects were 80 elderly patients with coronary heart disease treated in hospital from 2021.01 to 2023.01. They were divided into control group and observation group by random envelope method, with 40 cases in each group. Atorvastatin was taken in the control group and rosuvastatin was taken in the observation group, and the clinical efficacy and lipid levels of the two groups were compared. Results: The total therapeutic efficiency of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05); The blood lipid level in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05); The indexes of cardiac function in the observation group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05); The quality of life in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Rosuvastatin treatment can relieve the symptoms of patients, further enhance the curative effect, but also play a role in reducing the blood lipid level of patients, which is of high clinical reference value.
