RESUMO
[Objective] To introduce the experience of Professor ZHANG Biao in the treatment of infantile dyspepsia. [Methods] Through the long-term study with Professor ZHANG, large amounts of medical records are collected and generalized, so that the experiences concerning infantile dyspepsia are summarized, when and how to choose activation, tonification or digestion depends on excess and deficiency,and proven cases are presented. [Results] It is thought that infantile dyspepsia mostly belongs to excess syndrome, or excess syndrome combined with deficiency syndrome, so the treatment is heiping digestion, tonifying spleen and harmonizing stomach. Professor ZHANG thinks that the cause of children's dyspepsia is the weakness in spleen and stomach eventually. It is characterized by excess in syndromes and deficiency in root causes. Its clinical manifestations are concurrence of excess and deficiency. As for the treatment, there's no need to wait for the pathogenic qi to disappear. The basic principle of treatment is always to activate the spleen, regulate qi and help digestion. Professor ZHANG raises that syndromes with more deficicency than excess are treated by activating spleen, which is complemented by tonification. That is to say, activation and tonification are combined, while helping digestion is considered, also. But as to syndromes with more excess than deficiency, the treatment will be activating spleen combined with helping digestion, also with regulating qi. He also cares for children 's regulating and giving reasonable advice. [Conclusion]According to the children's characteristics of physiology and pathology, we should pay more attention to excess and deficiency to choose better method, at the same time, proper feeding and teaching are also important.
