The Differentiation And Treatment of Chronic Heart Failure Based on The Holistic View of"Liver,Blood,Heart and Pulse"
Chronic heart failure is the end-stage manifestation of heart disease caused by various causes of cardiac function and/or structural abnormalities,resulting in impaired systolic or diastolic function of the heart.The 5-year survival rate of chron-ic heart failure is comparable to that of malignant tumors.Once patients suffer from chronic heart failure,it not only seriously af-fects the quality of life of the patients themselves,but also has a great relationship with their family economic life.The main clini-cal manifestations of chronic heart failure are dyspnea,fluid retention and limited activity.In traditional Chinese medicine,it be-longs to"asthmatic syndrome","palpitation","edema"and other diseases.In the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine,the idea of"treating heart disease"is the main one,and the prevention and treatment of liver and blood vessels,which are closely re-lated to it,are often ignored.The article is based on the physiological connection of liver,blood,heart and pulse:"Liver and heart are connected,and harmony is used","heart governs blood,Ying moistens the whole body","liver blood and heart pulse are used for each other"and the pathological relationship is"liver qi obstructs collaterality,causes heart failure","blood deficiency pulse stagnation,heart Qi is not good","liver heart is not good,heart failure is very bad","soul loss,aggravates heart failure"and the relationship between them.This paper expounds the correlation between the theory of"liver-blood-heart-pulse"and chronic heart failure,and discusses the rule of differentiation and treatment of chronic heart failure from the holistic view of"liver-blood-heart-pulse".
