Harmonizing Method And The Study Of Professor Xu Erping Treating Spleen-stomach Diseases With It

Objective: This paper explores the origin and development of "harmonizing method",unearthes the literatures of treating spleen-stomach diseases with it,and analyses the characteristics of Professor Xu Erping treating spleen-stomach diseases based on syndrome differentiation,to understand "harmonizing method" with a comprehensive perspective hopefully and inherit the experiences of Professor Xu Erping treating spleen-stomach diseases with it,so as to guide clinical practice better.Methods: Firstly,the origin and development of "harmonizing method" were arranged,and the exact application of it in the modern clinical.Secondly Professor Xu Erping’s medical records of treating spleen-stomach diseases analysed with statistical methods.The data base of medical records is established using Excel software,which includes number,name,sexual distinction,age,length of course of disease,syndrome,TCM diagnosis,Western medicine diagnosis,method of treatment,physical sign,tongue manifestation,pulse manifestation,etc.The information of first visit in each medical records is input into the data base of professor Xu Erping’s medical records of treating spleen-stomach diseases.Then the data results are analyzed,generalized and summarized.Finally The professor Xu Erping’s typical medical records of treating spleen-stomach diseases are analyzed and summarized,to analyse his thinking ways of spleen-stomach diseases based on syndrome differentiation,and make some preliminary explorations for guiding clinical practice using it.Results: The incidence of gastrointestinal disease of women is more than men;The duration of spleen-stomach diseases varies,and following which,there are chronic diseases easily;The gastrectasia and stomachache are the main clinical manifestation;The diagnoses on it of Western medicine are chronic gastritis and chronic enteritis;The diagnose types of TCM include liver-stomach disharmony syndrome and stagnated heat of liver channel mainly,and the following is spleen-qi deficiency;The methods of treatment are mainly soothing liver and relieving depression,fortifying the spleen and nourishing blood,combining of cold and warm medicinals,dispersing the masses;The clinical prescriptions are mainly Xiaoyao San,Banxia Xiexin Decoction and other harmonizing formulas.Conclusion: "harmonizing method" is a very important part of the eight methods in TCM therapeutics.Professor Xu often flexibly utilizes "harmonizing method" to treat spleen-stomach diseases,and continually develops and practices the thoughts of it.In clinic,Professor Xu makes the prescription thoroughly,which is always based classical prescriptions and combined with current Prescription,for the clinical treatment.He is opposed to creating and modifying the ancient formula optionally.And he holds that,selecting formula is just like selecting soldiers,the key of which is not much but accurate and refined.Only when selecting formula is right can the desired effect be achieved.Therefore,"harmonizing method" can be used in clinical practice,and it is feasible that Professor Xu uses this method to treat spleen-stomach diseases,that is worth further study.
