Xiong Bi- Chest Bi definition
oppression in chest with chest Pain, mild are simple stuffiness and discomfort
Xiong Bi Severe cases Symptoms
crushing pain w/ SOB, dyspnea. Pain can radiate to left upper back or left shoulder and arm with SOB, dyspnea, diff breathing lying flat
Xiong Bi Biomedical Ds
Angina, Coronary artery Dz, Ischemic HT Dz, MI, Rheumatic HT Dz, Intercostal Neuralgia, Costochondritis, Bronchitis, Pneumonia, Pleurisy, Emphysema, Carcinoma
Xiong Bi Etiology 1
Invasion by Exogenous Cold which obstructs Yang Qi,(Pre-exist Yang Xu in chest creates succeptibility to invasion) so left with inadequate warming and circ of qi and blood = qi stag blood stasis, obstruction in chest=chest Pain
Xiong Bi Etiology 2
Improper Diet, impairs Sp/ST function leading to patho Dampness and phlegm accum. Phlegm blocks circ of qi and blood in the channels=chest Pain
Xiong Bi Etiology 3
Emo Stress: Sp affected by excess thought=inadequate production Qi and Blood. Insufficient Qi fails to circ blood. Deficient Blood fails to nourish HT. Also, anger and frustration causes LV Qi Stag leads to blood stasis=chest Px
Xiong Bi Etiology 4
Constitutional Xu: againg, decline KI, cause Chest Bi. KI Yang Qi foundation Yang for whole body. KI Yang declines=Heart Yang sluggish. Lack of HT Yang warming and poor circ in vessels=chest pain. KI Yin deteriorates= Heart Yin and Blood Xu=circ becomes sluggish cuz lack of yin=pain
Xiong Bi deficiency or excess?
akways both
Xiong Bi deficiency of which organs?
HT. Sp. KI
Xiong Bi Branch manifestations+
excess resulting from blood stasis, congealed cold, Qi stag and/or phlegm accum
Most important factors in Chest Bi?
Cold, blood stasis, phlegm=obstruction
Other organs play into Xiong Bi?
Lu.ST.LV

Zhen Xin Tong= True Cardiac Pain) critical, intense, prolonged chest pain, perspiration, cold extremities, pale complexion, faint and thin pulse, intermittent pulse, cyanotic lips, hands and feet
Explain Xiong Bi causes arrythmias
arrythmias=paroxysmal Xiong Bi may cause irregular pulse. Patho abstruct free flow heart yang qi impedes blood circ. Manifest as palps or intermittent pulse, skipping or knotted
Explain Xiong Bi cold congested fluids overflow to HT(heart failure)
extreme deficiency HT/KI Yang causes water to overflow into HT and further deplete HT Yang. Cough, wheeze, copious watery sput, palps and pitting edema
Xiong Bi Differential Diag 1
Xiong Bi=oppression, stabbing pain maybe radiating left shldr/arm, palps, SOB, cold limbs, perspiration, knotted, intermittent pulse. Mostly middle-aged and older w history HT Dz or hyperlipidemia
Xiong Bi Differential Diag 2

Xiong Bi Differential Diag 3
Wei Tong-Epigastric Px. Px in epigastrium. True Wei Tong= distending Px may sometimes radiate to back. Nausea, bleching, vomiting, acid regurge. Usually improper diet
Xiong Bi Tx Principles
root defic/branch excess= 1st treat branch=elim pathogenic factors then supplement Zheng Qi./Excess patterns=expel Cold, quicken blood to elim stasis, transform phlegm relieve Px/ Deficiency Patterns=warm/supplement Yang, nourish Yin or blood, relieve Px
