Objective:This essay aims at discussing the symptomatology characteristics and evolution law of children's HFMD in terms of the Traditional Chinese Medicine.Method:Investigating simultaneously at two clinic testing centers, by collecting information from the four diagnostic methods and its relevant elements, filling in clinic observation forms, inducing TCM syndrome pattern of the HFMD, and building up database accordingly. Per the diagnosed cases, the syndrome patterns mainly perform as:wind-heat invading lung, pathogenic dampness invading the lung and spleen, damp-heat with exuberance of virulence, deficiency of qi and yin, toxicity invading heart and liver, water pathogen invading heart and liver, and deficiency of both yin and yang. Follow-up observation shall be made per children's clinic performance on the admission day, (reference point), and also on the 3rd,5th,7th day after medication treatments, so as to identify the TCM syndrome pattern. Try to apply the probabilistic method to Children's HFMD, and systematically analyze the evolution law of TCM syndrome of Children's HFMD at different observation points. Based on both documentation study and clinic investigations, expertise Q&A will be worked out on TCM clinic regulations of Children's HFMD, and the expertise reply shall be analysized.Results:It was found that children with HFMD mostly perfoms as rashes on hands and feet, mouth pain antifeedant (P<0.01 X2=156.024), and with fever; wind-heat appears more than other symptom (P<0.01 X2=38.035). At an early stage, the main symptom shows up as wind-heat invading lung, and pathogenic dampness invading the lung and spleen, while middle period is the vital stage when the physical symptom develops in to asthenic symptom, At later stage although physical symptoms are more likely to appear, it's lower on the existing probabilities per the enrolled cases, and the syndrome tend to transform into deficiency of qi and yin or normal state. Expertise Q&A shows that of all the main syndrome indexes, except for the two indexes of "Buttocks herpes and canker sore", the other four indexes averages above 1.5, CV index varies between 0 and 0.31. Of all the Dialectical Type indexes, the two indexes of "wind-heat invading lung" and "damp-heat with exuberance of virulence" has the highest figure as on medicine mean, and full-score percentage, and both of the two CV indexes are lower than 0.3.A high concentricity and high coordinate index is approved from all the dialectical type expertise.Conclusion:The Children HFMD in most cases performs as wind-heat invading lung and pathogenic dampness invading the lung and spleen secondly, with its TCM syndromes evolutes in different patterns from different observation points. The basic clause from the framework of the questionnaire has received the recognition of the experts, however it did hold diverse opinions on Dialectical Type, and further optimization could be made to the said theories.
