| Objective: At present, it mainly deponds on two ways to define muggy in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The first way is that patients describe the symp tom by t he mselves. But thi s way is subjective. The second way is that doctors diagnose s y mptom through tongue diagnosis and pulse-taking. But for this way, the symptom perfor ma nce is complicated and due to differe nt doctors have different experience and knowledge, so the diagnosis is different. The two ways al l have the defect to get accurate quantification. Though r esearch about defi ning muggy standarly and objectively has been done, researchers hope to find an e ffe ctive standard to define muggy through mo dern testing methods. So far the effection is less. And the various physical, biological and genetic testing methods are expensive and ti me-consuming, and are more li mited for the c linical application.So it is the most i mportant to find a practicable and effective method to define muggy for clinical application of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Method: Research the origin, connotation and extension of therories which are related to muggy in Traditional Chinese Medicine through reviewing the traditional and mo dern literature. Measure and record blood pressure and pp for 98 muggy patients. And 36 muggy patients were treated for two courses of treatment t hrough Traditional Chinese Medicine. Then observe differ ence of blood pressure, pp and s y mptom before treat ment a nd after t reatment. Prove if measur ing blood presure and pp ca n be appl ied to define muggy and measure the effection for adjusting muggy.Result:1.For the 98 muggy patients whose age groups were different, their SBP was in normal lower limit (average 109.67±8.69mmHg) , DBP was in nor mal upper limit (average 79.44±7.52mmHg) and pp was in norma l lower limit (average 30.33±5.21mmHg).2.For the 36 muggy patients, their muggy si tuation was relieved after two courses of treat ment. And the change of blood pressure and pp happened before subjective sy mptom description of pa tients.Conclution: 1. SBP of muggy patients was in normal lower limits, DBP of muggy patients was in nor mal uppe r limits, and PP of muggy patients was in the lower limits of nor mal. 2. Muggy patients have improvement after Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment. At the sa me ti me, their SBP and PP all reach the average normal value.3. So it is an objective reference to exa m blood pressure and PP for defi ning mu ggy and measuring treatment effection, which is accurate and convenient. |
