Discussion on Qi,Blood,and Body Fluid Differentiation and Treatment of Chronic Heart Failure
Qi,blood,and body fluid are all produced by the spleen and stomach in the middle Jiao,and they are functionally complementary.Therefore,the pathological processes of Qi,blood,and body fluid,such as Qi deficiency,Qi stagnation,blood deficiency,blood stasis,and excessive fluid often occur one after another."Obstructed blood flow hinders body fluid transfer and leads to edema"clarifies the pathological causal relationship between Qi,blood,and water,and it can explain the pathological process of chronic heart failure.It is believed that the common causes of chronic heart failure can lead to qi generation and qi dysfunction and then cause obstructed blood flow.The resulting excessive fluid remains in the skin and the interstitial space of the viscera,leading to hindered body fluid.Long-term combination of excessive fluid and blood stasis brings heat and toxin,eroding the pulse and damaging the muscle,with variable syndromes occurring.The treatment should focus on replenishing and regulating Qi,promoting blood circulation and diuresis while nourishing blood,and properly matching the heat-clearing and toxin-resolving antidote,so as to achieve better efficacy in reducing cardiovascular events caused by chronic heart failure.
