Peng Qinghua's Experience in the Staged Treatment of Autoimmune Uveitis / 中医杂志

ABSTRACT

This paper summarized clinical experience of Professor Peng Qinghua in the staged treatment of autoimmune uveitis （AU）. The pathogenesis of AU is always based on root-cause deficiency and manifestation excess， with weakness of healthy qi as the root， and accumulation of wind， dampness and blood stasis as the minifestation. Syndrome differentiation and treatment is usually carried out according to different stages of disease. During the acute stage， deficiency of healthy qi and stagnation of wind-dampness are the key pathomechanisms， so the treatment is to replenish qi and activate blood， dispel wind and remove dampness， and self-made Yiqi Huoxue Qufeng Chushi Decoction （益气活血祛风除湿方） can be used. During remission stage， deficiency of spleen and kidney is the key mechanism， so the treatment is to tonify the spleen and kidney， replenish the essence and brighten the eyes， and self-made Yijing Mingmu Decoction （益精明目汤） can be used. Meanwhile， it was recommened to treat early， prevent and interrupt the disease， commonly combine with Chinese patent medicine Zhengqing Fengtongning tablets （正清风痛宁缓释片）， and promote regulation of living to prevent recurrence.
