Abstract:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a common disease that seriously endangers human health. And severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has a higher rate of death and disability, and acute exacerbation is more frequent. It has been a key difficulty in clinical treatment. Through long-term clinical practice and based on the theory of hidden pathogen, Yang Hongzhi believes that severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is lingering and repeated, and cough and asthma are difficult to be resolved, which should be blamed for the deficiency of the three organs of lung, spleen and kidney. Lung collateral qi deficiency and yang weak, phlegm and fluid retention, static blood can be deeply embedded in the deficiency of collateral, cementation is difficult to remove, consumption of vital qi, and the accumulation of hidden pathogen gradually gathered, brewed on the roots, repeatedly caused by his pathogenic attack. The key pathogenesis is accumulation of pathogen and damage, collaterals deficiency and pathogenic latent. And the basic pathological characteristics is manifestation deficiency and root excess, intermingled deficiency with excess. The treatment should follow the principle of reinforcing deficiency and reducing real pathogenic, removing and reinforcing, and should be treated in stages and sequential, with different stages having their own priorities. In the acute aggravation stage, the main purpose is to relieve acute cough and asthma by removing phlegm, removing static blood, and clearing colligals; in the remission period is to fill the deficiency and dredge collaterals, taking kidney qi to break the source of hidden pathogen, so as to achieve the effect of dispelling and reinforcing deficiency of lung collaterals, and dispelling the hidden pathogen spirits of lung collaterals. An empirical case is provided for evidence.
