浅析秦伯未治疗水肿六法

A Brief Analysis of Six Basic Treatment Methods for Edema Founded by Qin Bowei

秦伯未根据《黄帝内经》思想,将各脏腑生理功能与病理表现相结合,认为水肿之为病,以肺、脾、肾三脏为主,涉及胃、大肠、小肠、三焦、膀胱等脏,因而提出利尿、逐水、发汗、燥湿、温化、理气六大基本治法。同时认为此六法可因具体情况而出入变通,多种治法相结合,以发挥更好的临床疗效。

Based on the original text of the Huangdi Neijing,Qin Bowei combines physiology and pathology of Zang and Fu to explain how edema occurs. He holds the view that lung,spleen and kidney are the focus of lesion,involving stomach,large intestine,small intestine,urinary bladder and Sanjiao. Then he puts forward six basic therapies,that is diuresis,hydragogue,diaphoresis,eliminating dampness,warming,regulating Qi. At the same time,the six therapies can vary and be combined depending on the situation in order to improving clinical effectiveness.
