Wang Shuhe summarized several pulse conditions.

Wang Shuhe summarized 24 pulse conditions.

The 24 pulse conditions include: floating, blood, broad, slippery, rapid, increasing, taut, heavy, latent, skin, solid, slight, astringent, fine, soft, virtual, scattered, slow, late, knotted and generational.

The three methods of pulse diagnosis (Cun, Guan and Chi) and twenty-four pulse conditions summarized in Pulse Classic laid a solid foundation for the establishment and development of China's pulse science, which was inherited and carried forward by later physicians.

The number "24" is not accidental. The ancients established December by observing the astronomical phenomena, and set a solar term every fifteen days, so there were twenty-four solar terms, so Wang Shuhe used the number "twenty-four" to summarize twenty-four pulse conditions.

Volume I of Pulse Classic also quotes the dialogue between Huangdi and Zeebe in Huangdi Neijing, explaining that the pulse should be felt at the flat gallbladder, because at the flat gallbladder, Yin Qi does not move, Yang Qi does not disperse, food and drink do not enter, the meridians are not prosperous, the collaterals are well regulated, and the qi and blood are not chaotic, which is suitable for pulse diagnosis and disease judgment. We modern people all know that blood should be taken on an empty stomach in the morning, and Chinese medicine has long suggested a diagnostic examination in the morning.

Volume I of Pulse Classic also points out that pulse diagnosis should be based on the different characteristics of each person's height, height, thinness and priorities. For example, the pulse condition of obese people is often heavier, while that of grumpy people is biased. Children's pulse is slightly counted, normal adults inhale and exhale, and the pulse is four or five, while children often have eight to eight.
