ZHANG Xichun was known as an expert of modern Chinese and western medicine. However, later generations had failed to have full recognition to his merits and achievements in traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation. By studying and analyzing ZHANG Xichun's theories and medical cases of insomnia, the author realized that his treatment of insomnia was based on the principle of differentiation of syndromes of traditional Chinese medical science and was directed by the theory of the five viscera. ZHANG Xichun's treatment of insomnia differs according to the syndromes of the diseases instead of using the same prescription. In the following thesis, the author analyses and summarizes the characteristics of ZHANG Xichun's treatment of insomnia with a view to the clinical enlightenment. |
