Studies On Zhongjing’s Academic Theory Of Preventing Transmission And Change

Preventive treatment of disease is the summary and sublimation of thousands ofTraditonal Chinese Medicine (TCM) practice experience. It is the important part of TCMtheory system, which includes "preventing measures taken before the occurrence ofdisease" and "preventing transmission and change". The theory of "preventing transmissionand change" is not only a therapeutic principle on the idea aspect, but also a kind ofmedical treatment method, with the character of power of theory and clinical practice.The theory of "preventing transmission and change" went through the master pieces ofZhang Zhongjing’s TREATISE ON FEBRILE AND MISCELLANEOUS DISEASES and heis the outstanding model of practitioner who applied the theory into the clinical practice.Zhang zhongjing got the excellent effect when he practiced guided by the academicthought, which is the strong proof of the scientific academic thought. The thought put thewhole idea and method for the diagnosis and curation from much higher level, which showsthe special effect and application in solving the clinical problems. We should deal andacceed the theory. Therefore, it is very important that we should analyze the theory of"preventing transmission and change" and show the advantages of TCM in order to pushforward the theory of TCM deeply and guide the clinical practice. However, at present theacademic circles mostly emphasize on the general elaboration of thought and laid particularemphasis on "preventing measures taken before the occurrence of disease", ignoring theelaboration of "preventing transmission and change" as a therapeutic principle andfundamental law. As a result It is necessary to go on a thorough analysis study, gathering these datas analysis, making compare for the sorting of system with detailed elaborationclearly.During the research process, with the combination of the theories and the practicetesting, the author wanted to explain and explore the intension of Zhongjing’s "preventingtransmission and change" theory, looking for the regulation of the transmission and changeof the disease, revealing the meaning of guiding the clinics and the practional value,succeed the theory and make it, mix into the age harmoniously and do good to thehumanbeing.Firmly Planted in the academic theory, the paper want to elaborated the "preventingtransmission and change" from theory and clinic aspects. It expounds the academicsources, academic system and far-reaching influence on the later generation doctors ofZhongjing’s "preventing transmission and change" theory. Moreover, the paper analyzedthe applying value in the contemporary diagnose and treatment, naming the ischemicstroke with high incidence、high sequelae、high mortality and high recurrence that threatingthe people’s lives, and tried analyzing the devotion of the modern medical examiningtechniques to the thought.The thought of"preventive treatment of disease" put forward by Zhongjing in the headarticle of The Golden Chamber refers specially to the thought of "preventing transmissionand change". Here Zhongjing names the "treating liver by nourishing spleen" as anexample, set out from the idea of the human body internal internal organs related whole,spread to change regulation according to the internal organs disease certificate, while curingdisease in the prevention measure on the treatment of internal organs, keep paroxysm fromspreading changing. The key of "preventive treatment of disease" lies in grasping theregulation of transmission among viscera and different treatment between deficiency andexcess. Preventing the disease according to its current Situation and development tendency,we try to prevent transmission and change of disease. The principles are: Diagnosis andTreatment in Early stage of Disease, preventing transmission and change and preventing therecurrence. The article elaborated Zhongjing’s view in detail from the diagnosis and thetreatment. On diagnose aspect, foresawing disease in early days to break stage of diseasespreading to other places and control the regulation of its development variety. Accordingto physiques and disease history etc that causing a disease development the condition of the variety, making an earlier period diagnosis. In The Golden Chamber, Zhongjing put forwardthe concept of "stroke". He elaborates the apoplectic cause and pathogenesis, discriminatingdiagnosis and type of treatment, which influence the future generations profoundly. Thistext discussed ischemic stroke with high incidence.In the meantime,the author go intovarious humanities principles in the text, having heavy humanities from an angle of viewon the history, culture, philosophy...etc., reexamining and scooping out Zhongjing’s viewcompletely and thoroughly. It explains why we say that the theory lies on the bottom ofprofound human inside information.Hence, it strongly shows that Zhongjing’s "preventingtransmission and change" academic thought roots in the China traditional culture deeply.Zhongjing’s "preventing transmission and change" academic thought is a ligamentbetween the health and disease, which express the dynamic idea of "cure inprevention,prevention in cure and combination of prevention and cure". Facing thecondition of variety, we should use holistic concept, with development thought, observethe whole development of process of disease continuously. We should try to make a earlydiagnosis while examining the change tendency of disease.
