Guidelines for traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment of liver cirrhosis / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

In recent years， with the advances in basic and clinical research， medical workers have gained a deeper understanding of the clinical diagnosis and treatment of liver cirrhosis， and meanwhile， more studies have been conducted on the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndromes and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment of liver cirrhosis in China， especially in the field of anti-liver fibrosis treatment where TCM plays an important role. This guideline is revised based on the 2008 edition of Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of common diseases in Chinese internal medicine， and in accordance with related requirements in TCM standardization， evidence-based medicine， and technical guidance documents， the project team formed the guidelines for TCM diagnosis and treatment through literature research， expert interview， questionnaire survey， identification of clinical problems， grading of evidence， formation of recommendation opinions， and soliciting opinions， so as to provide practical and standardized guidelines for clinical diagnosis and treatment. This guideline has been approved by China Association of Chinese Medicine， with the standard number of T/CACM1576-2024.
