Heat disorders are not uncommon in the military society due to supposedly hard training to overcome the environmental conditions. Twenty-two soldiers with heat disorders were admitted to Chin Hae Naval Hospital June 1969 through July 1970. Hoping that our clinical studies on them contribute to a renewed understanding, the results are reported in summary as follows: 1) Heat disorders occurred with an overall incidence of 3.1 per cent during running in early summer. 2) Of the twenty-two patients, eight (37 per cent) had heat cramps, six (27 per cent) heat exhaustion, five(23 per cent) heat stroke, and three(13 per cent) had undetermined disorder. 3) Ten patients(45 per cent) were comatous, and this occurred most frequently(80 per cent) among those with heat stroke. 4) All patients were grouped into four according to their physical status on admission. Those with heat exhaustion mostly belonged to group I (good) or group II (fair). Those with heat stroke and heat cramps eomprised most of group III (poor) and group IV (grave). 5) Group I and II patients recovered within 12 hours; group III, within 12~24 hours; and group IV, required more than 24 hours of care. 6) One patient with heat stroke, graded V, expired with sudden hypothermia 15 hours following admission. Overall mortality of heat disorders was 4.5 per cent, and that of heat stroke 20 per cent. 7) The rest recovered uneventfully within 19 hours of average.

I discuss the question of cold/heat in greater yang disease period and the definition of yang/yin pattern as written in the Nyumon Kampo Igaku, which was the first textbook on Kampo medicine published by the Japan Society for Oriental Medicine. The first question is ; “Is the indication for Kampo medicine in greater yang disease period not the heat, but the exterior cold of a patient?” It is considered that a chilly feeling shows not cold illness, but a process trend toward body fever and sweating as a recovery strategy. The second question is ; “Should we adopt Okuda's definition of yang/yin pattern when my definition is obscure?” Okuda's definition was written for acute illnesses based on the treatise Shanghanlun (On Cold Damage). Nevertheless, we can not adopt this definition because our textbook has to be applied for treating patients with chronic illness, and the use of Goseiho and traditional Chinese medicine. The discrimination of quantitative analyses in the21st century, and qualitative approaches to discussing Kampo medicine diagnostic standards are considered important in the21st Century.
