Differentiation and Treatment of Non-Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Based on the Concept of Nourishing the Heart and Softening the Hardness
This article summarized clinical experience in differentiating and treating non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) based on the concept of nourishing the heart and softening the hardness. It is considered that HCM belongs to the category of "heart accumulation", with the fundamental cause being depletion of the spleen and kidney, and phlegm-stasis accumulation, as well as
qi
-
yin
exhaustion, serving as the manifestations. Spleen and kidney depletion leads to t
he transformation of phlegm and stasis, which accumulate in the heart; over time, this phlegm-stasis accumulation consumes heart
qi
and
yin
, resulting in the heart being deprived of nourishment, which eventually leads to the damage to both the function and structure of heart. Therefore, the method of nourishing the heart and softening the hardness is proposed for the treatment of non-obstructive HCM. Emphasis is placed on softening hardness and dissipating masses throughout the entire treatment process, often using
Modified Siwei Ruanjian Formula
(四味软坚方加减). During periods with prominent symptoms, the main treatment is boosting
qi
and nourishing
yin
to soften hardness and dissipate masses with self-made
Yuxin Ruanjian Formula
(自拟育心软坚方) in modifications; in stable periods, the main treatment is boosting kidney and fortifying spleen to soften hardness and dissipate masses with self-made
Pishen Tongzhi Formula
(脾肾同治方) in modifications.
