| Abstract
|
| The “manic” pulse is common in The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon. Many ancient doctors inherited and developed the concept of a “manic” pulse. Still，due to the different historical backgrounds，they did not agree on their understanding and perception of the “manic” pulse. Many modern doctors do not distinguish between the two pulses of “rapid” and “manic”，which makes the “manic” pulse gradually lose its clinical application value. This paper comprehensively demonstrates and summarizes the “manic” pulse from three perspectives：ancient philological classics，The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon and the understanding of ancient and modern doctors，and draws the following conclusions：the single pulse of the “manic” pulse is relatively rapid，and the pulse has a sense of being touched and gone，and the movement is uncertain，but its pulse position，pulse rate，and pulse shape are not fixed，and it is easy to be seen in floating，rapid，and moving pulses；the “manic” pulse can be used in the diagnosis and treatment of yang-heat diseases，heart diseases，emotional diseases，and the judgment of disease prognosis in clinical practice，and can be used to guide the diagnosis and treatment of acupuncture. |
