胃脘穴，主治中恶（突然感受秽浊邪气导致的危重病证）。《甲乙经》记载：该穴又名太仓，是胃的募穴，位于上脘穴下一寸处，处于胸骨剑突与脐连线的中点，为手太阳小肠经、手少阳三焦经、足阳明胃经所生之气汇聚之处，也是任脉的交会穴。适宜艾灸三壮。另外，《千金翼方》记载治疗中恶欲死、神志昏迷不知人者，可灸足大趾横纹处，壮数随患者年龄而定，左右脚相同。
对于猝死且因中恶所致者，可灸两足大趾爪甲聚毛处的甲中穴，七壮；这是华佗的方法，也有说法是三七壮，此外还可灸脐中一百壮。
若猝死者出现睁眼及伸舌的症状，可灸手足两个指甲后方穴位，共十四壮。
若猝死者四肢松弛无力无法收持，且大小便失禁者，可灸心下下一寸（巨阙穴）、脐上三寸（建里穴）、脐下四寸（关元穴），每穴各灸一百壮。
若是猝然遭受客忤（外邪侵袭或精神惊吓）而死，可灸人中穴三壮，该穴又名鬼客厅；此法又用于治疗尸厥（一说三十壮）。此外，可将一根竹管或苇管横度口中折断，使上端抵住心下部位，灸下端五壮；又可针刺间使穴，留针百余息；还可灸双手十指指甲下方穴位，每穴三壮；其余治疗方法同上述方剂（《备急方》记载用于救治猝死而睁眼反折者）；还可灸肩井穴一百壮；再灸间使穴七壮；再灸巨阙穴一百壮。
对于尸厥患者，可灸厉兑穴两个穴位。《甲乙经》记载：该穴位于足大趾次趾（即第二趾）之端，距离爪甲角如韭菜叶宽度处，是足阳明胃经脉气所出之处，每穴灸三壮，艾炷大小如小麦粒。此外，还可灸阴囊下方，距离下部一寸处，一百壮；若是女性，则灸两乳中间。另有说法：用爪甲刺人中穴，效果良好。又可针刺人中穴至牙齿深度，患者可立即苏醒；还可以绳子围量其臂腕周长，男性取左手，女性取右手，绳子从大椎穴上方经过，下行沿脊背，在绳头处灸五十壮，这是扁鹊的秘法。又可针刺百会穴，位置在鼻根入发际五寸处，进针三分并采用补法；又可针刺足大趾甲下肉侧，距离指甲三分处；还可灸膻中穴，十四壮。
猝然中恶导致飞尸遁注（一种游走性疼痛或怪病），出现胸胁胀满症状，可由旁庭穴主治。旁庭穴位于腋下第四肋间，高低与乳头相当，乳头后方二寸的凹陷处，俗称注市，举起腋窝时可取到该穴，进针五分，灸五十壮。若因恶风邪气导致遁尸（邪气潜伏体内作祟），体内有瘀血，适宜取九曲中府穴，位于旁庭穴和注市穴下方三寸处，进针五分，灸三十壮。
The Weiwang (Stomach Well) acupoint primarily treats Zhong'e (a critical condition caused by sudden exposure to noxious miasma). The *Jia Yi Jing* states: It is also named Taicang, and is the Mu-Alarm point of the Stomach. Located one cun below the Shangwan (Conception Vessel 13) acupoint, it lies at the midpoint between the xiphoid process and the umbilicus. It is where the Qi generated from the Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian, Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian, and Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian converge, and is an intersection with the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel). Moxibustion of three moxa cones is appropriate. Additionally, the *Qianjin Yi Fang* records that for treating Zhong'e leading to a desire to die and unconsciousness, one may moxa the transverse crease of the big toe, with the number of moxa cones corresponding to the patient's age, applied equally on both sides.
For sudden death due to Zhong'e, moxa the Jiazhong (Acupoint in the hair tuft near the nail of the big toe) on both big toes, seven cones; this is the method of Hua Tuo, though some sources suggest thirty-seven cones. Additionally, moxa the center of the umbilicus with one hundred cones.
If the patient exhibits sudden death with eyes open and tongue protruding, moxa the points behind the nails of both hands and feet, totaling fourteen cones.
If the patient exhibits sudden death with flaccid limbs unable to be controlled and incontinence of urine and feces, moxa one cun below the heart (Juequan, CV 14), three cun above the umbilicus (Jianli, CV 11), and four cun below the umbilicus (Guanyuan, CV 4), each with one hundred cones.
For those who die suddenly due to Ke Wu (sudden invasion by external pathogens or spiritual shock), moxa the Renzhong (Governing Vessel 26) acupoint three cones, also known as Guike Ting; this method also treats Shi Jue (corpse-like coma, said to be thirty cones in some texts). Furthermore, insert a bamboo tube horizontally into the mouth and break it, positioning the upper end against the area below the heart, and moxa the lower end five cones. One may also needle the Neiguan (Pericardium 6) or Jianshi (Pericardium 5) acupoint, retaining the needle for over one hundred breaths. Additionally, moxa the points under the nails of all ten fingers, three cones each. Other treatments are the same as the methods above (the *Beiji Fang* records this for treating sudden death with eyes open and body opisthotonos). One may also moxa the Jianjing (Gallbladder 21) acupoint one hundred cones, then moxa the Jianshi (Pericardium 5) acupoint seven cones, and finally moxa the Jueque (Conception Vessel 14) acupoint one hundred cones.
For patients with Shi Jue, moxa the Lidui (Stomach 45) acupoints bilaterally. The *Jia Yi Jing* states: These points are located at the distal ends of the second toes, approximately the width of a leek leaf away from the nail corner, where the Qi of the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian emerges. Moxa three cones per point, with moxa cones sized like wheat grains. Additionally, moxa one cun below the scrotum, one hundred cones; for women, moxa the midpoint between the two breasts. Another method suggests scratching the Renzhong acupoint with fingernails, which is effective. One may also needle the Renzhong acupoint deeply until the teeth, causing immediate revival. Alternatively, measure the circumference of the arm/wrist with a rope (left for men, right for women), pass the rope from above the Dazhui (Governing Vessel 14) acupoint down along the spine, and moxa the ends of the rope fifty cones; this is a secret method of Bian Que. One may also needle the Baihui (Governing Vessel 20) acupoint, located five cun above the anterior hairline directly above the nose, inserting three fen and using the tonification method. One may also needle the fleshy side under the nail of the big toe, three fen from the nail edge. Additionally, moxa the Shanzhong (Conception Vessel 17) acupoint, fourteen cones.
For sudden Zhong'e causing Fei Shi Dun Zhu (a wandering pestilence or migratory pain), accompanied by fullness in the chest and hypochondrium, the Pangting acupoint is indicated. Located in the fourth intercostal space under the axilla, at the same level as the nipple, two cun posterior to the nipple in the depression, commonly known as Zhushi. Take the point with the axilla raised. Insert the needle five fen and moxa fifty cones. If caused by evil wind-pathogens leading to Dun Shi (pathogens lurking within), with blood stasis inside, the Jiuyu Zhongfu acupoint should be selected, located three cun below the Pangting and Zhushi points. Insert the needle five fen and moxa thirty cones.
