Treating Sepsis from the Perspective of “Latent Pathogen in Warm Disease”
According to the theory of latent pathogen in warm disease and the clinical practice experience in treating sepsis, it is believed that long-term accumulation of latent pathogen is the potential cause of sepsis. “Internal accumulation of pathogenic heat,stasis toxin blocking the collaterals, and combined internal and external pathogens” is the pathogenesis. Residual pathogen deeply buried and lingering pathogen due to healthy
qi
deficiency lead to persistent inflammation-immunosuppression-hypercatabolic syndrome (PICS) and other poor prognosis in sepsis. The main treatment method is to “clear, vent and nourish”. The clearing method is used to clear the pathogenic toxin in the body. The venting method can vent the pathogen and dissipate heat, open and unblock the pathway, and clear away residual pathogen. The nourishing method is to reinforce healthy
qi
and eliminate pathogen, care spleen-kidney and harmonize yin fluid, and prevent the transformation of sepsis into PICS.
