An Online Resource for Scholars & Practitioners

The Chinese Medicine Database is an indespensible resource for Chinese Medicine practitioners, students, and scholars. It provides users with the ability to search through Single Herbs, Formulas, and Points by Name, Category, Action, Indication, Tongue & Pulse. We also provide searches of Western Diagnoses, Translations and a Chinese - English Dictionary.

 

Each Topic also has its own special search characteristics:

 

In Single Herbs: you can search for Alternative Names, Botanical Name, Pharmaceutical Name, Common Name, Nature, Flavor, Organ, Contraindications, and Drug Herb Interactions.

 

In Formulas: you can search for a particular Patent from Mayway, ITM, Golden Flower or Health Concerns; see all of the formula's constituent Herbs relative properties, and search multiple formulas by the herbs they share in common.

 

In Points: you can search for the Chinese Characters, Element, Point Categories, Crossing Points, and the little known Points of Weihe.

 

In Western Diagnoses: you can search by Name of Western Disease, 2007 ICD-9 Code, Epidemiology, Subjective Findings (Indications), and Objective Findings (Tests) .

 

In Translations: Search our translations by Author, by Dynasty, by Translator, by Title, by English Keyword, and by Chinese characters. You can even pick Keyword and any of the other sections. If you want to know all the times Gui Zhi was mentioned in the Tang Dynasty, our search will find it for you. Read through a Single text in a sitting, or search through multiple texts, your choice.

 

The Chinese-English Dictionary: Our Dictionary provides medical terminology that can be found only in a few other places. A user can search for a term in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Intoned pinyin or numbered pinyin. Users can also search by English definition in both the Eastland and WHO term sets, as well as in a regular CEDICT. The search returns the results from all terms sets and allows a user to see the differences between each term set.

 

This clinical database has been created for the Busy Practioner who has a limited amount of time to research the complexities of each patient. With our unique annotation system, you will begin to understand Chinese Medicine in new ways, by following the same tradition of learning as the Scholar Sages: Zhong Zhang Jing, Huang Di, Bian Que, Li Shizhen, and Sun Si Miao.
 

An Online Resource for Scholars & Practitioners

Over 65,000 pre 1950's documents on Chinese Medicine exist that are pertinent to Chinese Medicine, plus thousands more on the subjects of Buddhism, Taoism, Qi Gong, Acupuncture, etc. Yet, only a handful of these Chinese Medicine Texts have been translated to date. Through the Chinese Medicine Database, these documents are being made available for the first time to the World audience.
