Abstract:
This article introduces Professor Shi Zaixiang's clinical experience in treating dilated cardiomyopathy.Professor Shi believes that dilated cardiomyopathy should be classified under"cardiac accumulation"disease in line with TCM diagnostics and treatment.The disease originates from the prolapse of the great qi,with blood stasis and water retention as secondary symptoms.Both blood stasis and water retention can further exacerbate the prolapse of the great qi.The treatment focuses on lifting yang to address the root cause of the prolapse and removing blood stasis and promoting diuresis to treat the secondary symptoms.Based on the self-formulated Shengxian Quyu Decoction,which lifts yang to treat prolapse and transforms stasis to unblock the collaterals,combined with Chinese materia medica that invigorate blood circulation and promote diuresis,or with classical prescriptions that eliminate water retention,the clinical efficacy has been remarkable.
