证所宜进退晋王叔和集仲景评脉要论。
In heat diseases, when Lung Qi is exhausted, symptoms include panting and counterflow qi (rebellious qi), coughing up blood, swelling of the hands, feet, and abdomen, yellowish complexion, tremors and chills with inability to speak; death ensues. The Po (Corporeal Soul) departs together with the skin and hair; thus, the Lung fails first. The condition worsens on Bing days and death occurs on Ding days.
In heat diseases, when Spleen Qi is exhausted, symptoms include headache, vomiting of old fluids, inability to eat, retching and vomiting of blood, inability to take in water or gruel, delirious speech, abdominal fullness, limbs unable to be controlled, and mental distress; death ensues. Pulse Qi departs together with Muscle Qi; thus, the Spleen fails first. The condition worsens on Jia days and death occurs on Yi days.
In heat diseases, when the Qi of the Heart Master is exhausted, symptoms include vexation and chest fullness, bone pain (alternatively described as convulsions/tetany), throat swelling with difficulty swallowing, desire to cough but inability to do so, inappropriate laughter and crying; death ensues. Shen (Spirit) departs together with Ying Blood and vessels; thus, the Heart fails first. The condition worsens on Ren days and death occurs on Gui days.
In heat diseases, when Liver Qi is exhausted, symptoms include sudden stiff collapse, feet unable to touch the ground, vomiting of blood, fearfulness, shivering aversion to cold, spontaneous bleeding, and incontinence of urine and feces; death ensues. Hun (Ethereal Soul) departs together with Sinew and Blood; thus, the Liver fails first. The condition worsens on Geng days and death occurs on Xin days.
In heat diseases, when Kidney Qi is exhausted, symptoms include panting and palpitations, vomiting and counterflow qi, swellings and carbuncles, sores at the sacrum, blurred vision, bone pain, shortness of breath, panting and chest fullness, and sweat like pearls; death ensues. Jing (Essence) departs together with Bone Marrow; thus, the Kidney fails first. The condition worsens on Wu days and death occurs on Si days. If externally one observes small blue pupils, withered nails, falling hair, rough body texture, protruding teeth with dirt accumulation, skin covered in thick dusty blackness, coughing up blood, thirst with frequent drinking desires, and severe abdominal fullness, this indicates exhaustion of the Five Zang organs, representing a critical exterior disease pattern.
In heat diseases, if the pulse beats four times per respiration cycle, death occurs in three days. "Four beats" refers to the normal person having one beat per respiration cycle, whereas the patient has four beats.
In heat diseases, if the pulse beats five times per respiration cycle, death occurs in one day. If occasionally there is a single large surge, death occurs in half a day. If the patient feels suddenly confused and disordered, death ensues.
In heat diseases, if the pulse beats six times per respiration cycle, death occurs in half a day. If the pulse becomes suddenly rapid and forceful, death occurs shortly after.
In heat diseases, if the pulse shows "Four Damages" (Si Sun), death occurs in three days. "Four Damages" means that while a normal person's pulse beats four times per respiration cycle, the patient's pulse beats only once, termed "Four Damages."
In heat diseases, if the pulse shows "Five Damages," death occurs in one day. "Five Damages" means that while a normal person's pulse beats five times per respiration cycle, the patient's pulse beats only once, termed "Five Damages."
In heat diseases, if the pulse shows "Six Damages," death occurs within one Shichen (two-hour period). "Six Damages" means that while a normal person's pulse beats six times per respiration cycle, the patient's pulse beats only once, termed "Six Damages." If the pulse ceases completely or beats very slowly after a long interval, immediate death occurs. These principles guide the advancement and retreat of treatment strategies for Taiyang Cold Damage patterns, compiled by Wang Shuhe of the Jin Dynasty from Zhang Zhongjing's evaluation of pulse essential theories.
