Under the leadership of Professor Guo Weiguang, the department director, academic leader, and supervisor of master’s students, the department has established a well-structured academic team.

It undertakes the medical, teaching, and research work of the Second Affiliated Hospital, as well as multiple research projects at the provincial and municipal levels. It is qualified to train master’s students in integrated Chinese-Western medicine for peripheral vascular diseases at Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine, and was the first unit in the province to establish a “Diabetic Foot Treatment Room” in a public hospital. Using integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine as its principal treatment approach and combining it with surgery, physical therapy, and other comprehensive methods, it treats peripheral vascular diseases including thromboangiitis obliterans, arteriosclerosis obliterans, diabetic foot, Raynaud syndrome, Takayasu arteritis, varicose veins, venous thrombosis, vasculitis, lymphangitis, and lymphedema.

The Chinese proprietary medicines developed and manufactured in-house by the department, Bixie Xiaozhong Pills and Longcao Ointment, have demonstrated significant clinical efficacy. When used in combination with hospital preparations such as Quanxie Ointment, Xiaoyu Ointment, and Jiedu Bailing Pills, they have produced good clinical results in the treatment of peripheral vascular diseases.
