Atherosclerosis "Endogenous Collateral Wind"doctrine is a pathogenesis theory put forward on the basis of acute cardiovascular events characteristics

such as sudden onset

varied clinical manifestation

etc. On the basis of the disorder of Qi and blood

"Endogenous Collateral Wind"is formed. "Toxic Heat Producing Wind "

"Collateral Deficiency Producing Wind"or "Outer Wind Producing Endogenous Wind"

leading to damaging veins

stagnating veins or unnourished veins

then actuating perdu wind to cause cardiac pain suddenly. The treatment strategy should be reasonably arrange the priority between "treat wind"and "regulate Qi and blood"

according to degree of acute and seriousness of disease. Toxic Heat Producing Wind syndrome is acute

thus treating wind with expelling wind medicine should be to taken firstly as a temporary solution. "Collateral Deficiency Producing Wind syndrome is not so acute

thus regulating Qi and blood should be applied to achieve a permanent cure. For Outer Wind Producing Endogenous Wind syndrome

treatment should be relieving both primary and secondary symptoms and treat both exterior and interior to avoid progression of the disease. Qi-blood relation theory organically combining with"Endogenous Collateral Wind"doctrine had great significance to guide prevention and control of atherosclerosis disease.
