After screening literature, data extracting and quality reviewing according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, the data was given a Meta-analysis by using RevMan5.2 software. Results There were totally 8 RCT included involving 481 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the curative effect was better in treatment group than that in control group (OR=4.24, 95%CI:2.46-7.30, P<0.00001), and LVEF was improved in treatment group (MD=7.69, 95%CI:1.84-13.55, P=0.01). Conclusion The routine therapies combining Shengmai Injection has an improve curative effect on DCM, while more large-sample and multiple-center RCT with rigorous design are required for further identifying this tendency because of limited quantity and quality of this study.
