Abstract: Circular motion is an important doctrine of Chinese medicine. The Pogejiuxin Decoction is an empirical formula created by Dr.Li Ke. In the rural areas where there is a lack of medicine, Li Ke successfully treated thousands of patients with severe heart failure with this formula, but this formula has not been commonly used in modern society. Therefore, this paper discusses the treatment of chronic heart failure with the Pogejiuxin Decoction by combining the theory of circular motion, and broadens the idea of dialectical application from the drug mechanism and the characteristics of the formula.

Key words: circular motion, pogejiuxin Decoction, chronic heart failure, characteristics of the formula, mechanism of action
