Diagnosis and Treatment Ideas for Different Pulmonary Diseases Under Guidance of Theory of Blood Stasis and Toxicity
ZHANG Wei
Abstract:Based on long-term clinical practice experience and a large number of clinical and basic studies,our team innovatively proposed the theories of"the lung generating blood"and"the lung being a blood-forming organ",which not only expanded the understanding in previous textbooks but also enriched the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine.On this basis,we systematically proposed that blood stasis and toxicity are the main characteristics of the pathogenesis changes in pulmonary diseases,constructed a comprehensive syndrome treatment system for pulmonary diseases guided by the blood stasis and toxicity theory,and applied this theory to the prevention and treatment of pulmonary diseases such as bronchial asthma,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,pulmonary interstitial fibrosis,and lung cancer.In the acute stages of bron-chial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,most patients exhibit symptoms indicative of excess syndromes,with blood stasis,toxicity and phlegm being the primary pathological factors;thus,drugs that promote blood circulation and resolve phlegm are used.For pulmonary interstitial fibrosis,where blood stasis and toxicity invade the collaterals,insect drugs with relatively strong blood-activating effects and collateral-dredging functions are chosen.For lung cancer,where blood stasis and toxicity combine with cancer toxicity,drugs with the functions of promoting blood circulation,detoxification,and anti-tumor are selected.In the clinical treatment of pulmonary diseases,it is essential to consider the characteristics of different diseases and emphasize the application of methods to remove blood stasis and detoxify.
