粗细类脉研究的思路与方法

Thoughts and Methods of Studying Thick and Thin Pulses

脉象的宽度与脉象的长度、深度、力度、频率、节律、流利度、紧张度以及均匀度等统称为脉象的八大要素。如何把脉象的宽度客观地表达出来是近年来脉象研究的重点和难点。本文所介绍的研究方法就是以古代中医典籍对脉象宽度的认识为理论依据,以目前国内外对脉象宽度的研究成果为参考,在充分考虑宽度类脉产生原因和形成机理的基础上,运用先进的脉象宽度检测装置,对脉象的宽度进行客观化、定量化检测。通过检测,力求建立一套针对脉象宽度的新型检测方法,在临床采样以及数据统计分析的基础上,希望能够初步建立脉象宽度的量化指标,将脉道粗细客观地表达出来。

The eight elements which constitute pulse condition include pulse width,pulse depth,pulse power,pulse frequency,pulse rhythm,pulse fluency,pulse tensity and pulse evenness.How to describe pulse width objectively is key point and difficult point in the pulse study.The research process this paper mentions is based on the ancient doctors＇ cognition about the pulse width,and refer to the native and foreign research production on the pulse width.Using the advanced device for testing pulse width,we test pulse width objectively and quantificationally based on the reason and machanism how the pulse width form.We do our effort to try to find a series of new methods to test pulse width.After analysing the data we have got from experiment we hope can primarily create a pulse width quantification index and can express the pulse width objectively.
