Abstract:
Introduction:Traditional Mongolian medicine pulse diagnosis is one of the three major assessments in consultation. Possessing thorough pulse feeling skill, the main diagnostic method of traditional medicine,
makes a direct impact to treatment results. Unfortunately, there has not been much research done
on determining the scientific nature of the pulse feeling diagnostic method in Mongolia. Therefore,
the topic was selected in order to clarify some issues of history and theory of the pulse feeling method and to prove the method with practical application.
Highlight some of the theoretical concepts of the traditional medicine approach to pulse reading.
When feeling the pulse, the index finger is pressed lightly to feel the skin, the middle finger is
pressed with medium pressure to feel the muscle tissue and the ring finger is pressed hard to feel
the bone of the doctor is pressed lightly in order to distinguish the twisted blood flow changes overcoming the resistance of sequential pressure. We also identified that the pulse feeling is based on
the nature and connection of the wind and blood and their actions in regard to traditional medicine,
whereas by modern medical theory; it is based on functioning factors of vascular muscle layers,
pulse rate, pressure to vascular wall and condition of vascular wall as well as thickness and thinness of blood flow. In addition to the method being effective when detecting pregnancy and gender
of fetus of patients at the maternity hospital, it is definite that it can be basis of identifying the characteristic of pulse of warm and cold diseases.
