Abstract:
Rapid pulse is often seen clinically. The majority of physicians believe that it is a manifestation of disease caused exogenous fire or excess-heat accelerating the flow of blood in vessels. Thus rapid pulse is usually seen as a symbol of heat syndrome. But actually, rapid pulse is not only resulted from hyperfunctioning or preponderance of Yang or exposure to pathogenic heat, it can also be seen in cold syndrome, deficient syndrome and blood stasis. Therefore, doctors should make a comprehensive study of patient with four diagnostic methods in order to avoid mistreating.
