Discussion on Pathogenesis and Treatment of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction Based on Circular Motion Theory
The essence of the theory of circular motion is the circulation of qi in the human body,that is,the ascending,descending,floating and sinking of qi,which is"qi circulation"summarized by HUANG Yuanyu.Based on the theory of circular motion,it is believed that heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is caused by metal qi failing to descend and fire qi failing to ascend,then the ascending and descending of qi of middle jiao is in disorder gradually,which finally leads to damage to kidney yang and the fire of lifegate becoming weak,and qi of water and wood can not ascend.In terms of clinical treatment,it is necessary to expel pathogenic factors to restore the descending of qi of fire and metal in the early stage of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and the ascending of spleen and the descending of stomach in the middle stage and to warm yang and benefit qi and remove blood stasis to restore the ascending of qi of water and wood in the late stage.The final goat is restoring the circulation of qi so as to improve or cure the heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
