Methods for preventing and treating myocardial ischemia

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main causes of myocardial ischemia include deficiency of heart qi, deficiency of heart blood, deficiency of heart yin, stagnation of heart qi, stasis of heart blood, stagnation of phlegm and dampness, deficiency of heart yang, etc. Generally, the symptoms of clinical myocardial ischemia are rarely a single deficiency of qi or blood. Most of them have relatively complex concurrent symptoms, such as qi deficiency and phlegm obstruction, yin deficiency and blood stasis, heart and liver qi stagnation, and heart and kidney yang deficiency. Therefore, during the treatment process, it is also necessary to conduct syndrome differentiation and analysis based on the symptoms in order to prescribe treatment.

It is worth noting that if the syndrome differentiation is accurate and the medication is appropriate, Chinese medicine can often have very good short-term and long-term effects in relieving and treating myocardial ischemia. The author has recently treated several patients with myocardial ischemia in the outpatient clinic and ward. All of them used Chinese medicine alone when Western medicine failed to improve the ischemia, and all achieved satisfactory results. The main reason for this is that Chinese medicine treatment takes into account the physical condition, organ-related influences, and symptom characteristics of each patient, and it is the result of comprehensive treatment from a dialectical perspective. Western medicine, on the other hand, mainly focuses on improving coronary blood supply and ignores related impacts. However, it is also obvious that in the case of acute and severe myocardial ischemia, Western medicine cannot be ignored.

The prevention and treatment of myocardial ischemia mainly include the following aspects:

1. Prevention is more important than cure, and coordination of internal organs ensures safety.

2. Prevent ischemia and regulate emotions, so that the mind is open and blood stasis is difficult to occur.

3. Chinese medicine treatment focuses on differentiation of syndromes, and combines the principles of deficiency and excess, cold and heat.

4. Decoction and pill infusion should be used for emergency and short-term treatment, and should treat both symptoms without bias.
