Lung and Heart: The floating pulse (Fu Mai, Floating Pulse) indicates exterior syndromes. A floating-tight pulse (Fu Jin) indicates Cold Damage (Shang Han); a floating-slow pulse (Fu Huan) indicates Wind Strike; a floating-rapid pulse (Fu Shu) indicates Wind-Heat; a floating-kun pulse (Fu Kou) indicates blood loss (Kou is described as hollow at the edges); a floating-hong pulse (Fu Hong) indicates Fire pathogen; a floating-ru pulse (Fu Ru) indicates Yin deficiency; a floating-slippery pulse (Fu Hua) indicates Phlegm-Heat; a floating-string-taut pulse (Fu Xian) indicates Phlegm-Fluid retention; a floating-scattered pulse (Fu San) indicates a critical condition; a floating-leather pulse (Fu Ge) indicates extreme exhaustion (Ge is described as feeling like a drum skin on superficial palpation); a floating-large pulse (Fu Da) indicates internal deficiency, often seen in the right Guan position.
Kidney and Liver: The deep pulse (Chen Mai, Deep Pulse) indicates interior syndromes. A deep-tight pulse (Chen Jin) indicates internal pain; a deep-string-taut pulse (Chen Xian) indicates latent fluid retention; a deep-rapid pulse (Chen Shu) indicates internal heat; a deep-excess pulse (Chen Shi) indicates severe heat; a deep-slow pulse (Chen Chi) indicates internal cold; a deep-slippery pulse (Chen Hua) indicates retained food; a deep-thin pulse (Chen Xi) indicates Damp-Cold; a deep-weak pulse (Chen Ruo) indicates Qi stagnation; a deep-firm pulse (Chen Lao) indicates cold accumulation; a deep-hidden pulse (Chen Fu) indicates Huoluan (Cholera-like disease).
Spleen Organ: The slow pulse (Chi Mai, Slow Pulse) indicates Zang organ diseases. A slow-floating pulse indicates exterior deficiency; a slow-deep pulse indicates interior cold. If forceful, it indicates pain; if weak, it indicates cold deficiency. A slow-slow and deep-excess pulse indicates the peak of Yang excess. A slow-thin and difficult-rough pulse (Se Mai, Choppy Pulse) indicates visible Yin decline. Three beats per respiration, the pulse manifests across the three positions.
Heart Bowel: The rapid pulse (Shu Mai, Rapid Pulse) indicates Fu bowel diseases. If forceful, it indicates heat; if weak, it indicates sores/ulcers; a thin-rapid pulse indicates consumptive disease; a slippery-rapid pulse indicates Phlegm-Fire. A rapid pulse with intermittent stops is called Cu Mai (Hasty Pulse), indicating Yang excess. Six beats per respiration confirms the Rapid pulse without error.
Gallbladder and Liver: The string-taut pulse (Xian Mai, Wiry Pulse) indicates fluid retention. A string-taut-rapid pulse indicates heat; a string-taut-slow pulse indicates cold. A string-taut pulse at the Cun position indicates headache; at the Chi position, it indicates Kidney injury. A string-taut-tight pulse indicates cold-excess syndrome; a string-taut-thin pulse indicates extreme disease. The pulse for Heat Stroke (Shang Shu) presents as string-taut, thin, kun, or slow. Shaoyang Cold Damage presents as string-taut-rapid or string-taut-thin.
Four beats per respiration constitute the Huan Mai (Slow/Pleasant Pulse), indicating a healthy state. Intermittent stops constitute the Jie Mai (Knotted Pulse): superficial knotted indicates Qi stagnation; deep knotted indicates accumulation. The Dong Mai (Moving Pulse) feels like a bean and can be felt at all three positions; it indicates metrorrhagia, leukorrhea, seminal emission, pain, and fright. If the pulse moves then stops, taking a long time to resume, this is the Dai Mai (Intermittent Pulse). This condition concerns life and death; it is difficult to save normal people, but is auspicious for pregnant women.
The Eight Extraordinary Vessels run vertically up and down. Tight and straight indicates the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel); floating indicates the Du Mai (Governing Vessel); firm indicates the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel). Pulsation beating left and right at the Cun position indicates the Yang Qiao Mai (Yang Heel Vessel). Pulsation beating left and right at the Chi position indicates the Yin Qiao Mai (Yin Heel Vessel). Pulsation beating left and right at the Guan position indicates the Dai Mai (Girdle Vessel) in the center. Slanting upward from Chi to Cun on the outer side indicates the Yin Wei Mai (Yin Linking Vessel). Slanting upward from Chi to Cun on the inner side indicates the Yang Wei Mai (Yang Linking Vessel). Floating and straight indicates the Du Mai, associated with stiff spine and epilepsy. Firm and straight indicates the Chong Mai, associated with rebellious Qi affecting interior and exterior. Tight and straight indicates the Ren Mai, associated with the Seven Types of Hernia (Qi She) and firm masses. When Yang Qiao is tense, Yin is relaxed; when Yin Qiao is tense, Yang is relaxed. Symptoms include alternating chills and fever, mental confusion, convulsions, and epilepsy. Yang Wei Mai disorders present with chills and fever, dizziness, and sudden collapse. Yin Wei Mai disorders present with heart pain and stabbing sensations in the chest and hypochondrium. The Dai Mai governs leukorrhea, umbilical pain, and seminal emission.
