从"毒损心络"理论探讨心肌梗死的病机演变与治疗OA

Acute myocardial infarction(AMI)is categorized as"Zhen Xin Tong"(real heart pain)in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).Based on the"toxins damaging heart collaterals"theory,the key features for pathogenesis evolution are"toxins eroding flesh and blood"in the acute stage and"toxins accumulating in necrotic tissue"in the recovery stage.Accordingly,a staged treatment model is proposed for AMI:clearing and resolving pathogenic toxins from the blood in the acute stage;expelling toxins and promoting tissue regeneration during the recovery stage;and dredging fu-organs to purge toxins throughout the entire disease course.This model aims to provide new insights for the TCM diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction.
