【丹】治疗五绝症,包括:一为自缢,二为重物摧压致死,三为溺水,四为魔魅(中邪),五为产后乳疾。使用半夏一两研成粉末,制成如豆粒大小的丸剂,纳入鼻中即可痊愈;若心口尚温,一天之内仍可救治。(出自《子母秘录》)
【仲景】抢救自缢死亡者,从早晨到傍晚即使身体已冷,也必定可以救治;从傍晚到早晨则难以救治。恐怕这是因为此时阴气旺盛的缘故。然而夏季夜晚短于白天,且天气炎热,仍然应当可以救治。又说:若心下部位尚微温,超过一天以上,仍可救治。应当慢慢将其解开,切勿切断绳索,上下铺好被褥让其平卧。一人用脚踏住其双肩,手拉其头发,保持持续紧绷状态,不要使其松弛。一人用手按压并多次揉动其胸部。一人按摩捋顺其手臂和小腿,做屈伸运动。如果身体已经僵硬,只能逐渐强行弯曲关节,并按摩腹部。如此经过一顿饭的工夫,虽然气息从口中呼出,眼睛睁开,仍应继续按压扶持,不要放置不管,也不要使其过度劳累。片刻之后,可少量给予桂枝汤或米汤含漱喂服,使喉咙湿润,待能渐渐吞咽后再停止。再让两人用管子吹其双耳,此法最为有效,没有救不活的人。
【山氏】自缢者,切不可割断绳子,可用膝盖或用手包裹厚衣物紧紧顶住肛门处,抱起解开绳索后放下,揉搓颈部勒痕,搐鼻(刺激鼻腔)及吹其双耳,待其气息恢复,方可松手,若过早泄气,则无法挽救了。
【肘后备急方】自缢死亡者,安定心神,慢慢解开束缚,千万不要割断绳子。抱起来时,若心下尚温,滴入鸡冠血于口中即刻复活,男性用雌鸡,女性用雄鸡。另一方法,取鸡屎白如枣大,用半盏酒调和灌入及纳入鼻中,尤其奇妙。《千金方》用蓝汁(靛蓝汁)灌入,其余方法同上。
【山氏】突然坠落被压倒打死,只要心头尚温者皆可抢救。将患者摆成类似僧人打坐的姿势,令一人将其头发控放低,用半夏末吹入鼻内。如果复活,再用生姜汁与香油搅拌均匀后灌服。
【仲景】抢救溺水者的方子。取灶中灰两石埋在身上,从头至足覆盖,水从七窍流出,即可复活。
【山氏】溺水者,放置在长凳上仰卧,将脚后的凳脚垫起两块砖高,然后用盐蘸水擦拭肚脐,待体内积水自然流出,切不可倒提甩出水来。这几类情况,只要心头微热者,皆可救治。
另一方法,溺水死亡一夜的人尚能复活。捣碎皂角用绵布包裹塞入下部(肛门),片刻后水排出,即可复活。
【世医】治疗鬼压床(魇寐)不醒、中恶者,将皂角研成粉末,如绿豆大小,吹入鼻中。打喷嚏即气息通畅。
【山氏】魇死之人不可靠近前呼唤,只需用力咬其脚跟并向其面部吐唾沫。若不省人事,稍微移动一下卧处,慢慢呼唤他。原来有灯就保留,没有灯千万不要点灯,并用皂角粉搐鼻。
【肘后备急方】睡觉时突然不醒,不要用火光照视,否则会杀人。只需用力咬大拇指指甲边缘并向其面部吐唾沫即可复活,取韭菜捣汁吹入鼻孔。冬季用韭根取汁灌入口中。
【集验方】治疗突然魇寐。雄黄捣碎筛成细末,用管子吹入鼻孔中。
[Dan] Treatment for the "Five Extinctions" (Wu Jue), which include: 1) hanging (self-strangulation), 2) crushing by heavy objects, 3) drowning, 4) possession by evil spirits (Zhong E), and 5) postpartum complications. Use one liang of Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) ground into powder, formed into pills the size of beans, and inserted into the nasal cavity to cure. If the heart region remains warm, it can be treated within one day. (From *Zimu Milu*)
[Zhongjing] To rescue those who have died from hanging: even if the body has cooled from morning to evening, treatment is certainly effective; however, from evening to morning, it is difficult. This is likely due to the prevalence of Yin Qi at that time. Nevertheless, in summer when nights are shorter than days and the weather is hot, treatment should still be effective. It is also stated: if the epigastrium is still slightly warm, even after more than a day, treatment is possible. One should slowly untie the victim without cutting the rope, lay them flat on bedding placed above and below. One person stands on the victim's shoulders with their feet while pulling the hair taut, maintaining constant tension without letting it slacken. Another person presses and repeatedly rubs the chest. A third person massages and extends the arms and lower legs. If the body is already stiff, gently force flexion and extension while massaging the abdomen. After about the time it takes to cook a meal, although breath may return from the mouth and eyes open, continue pressing and supporting without releasing or exhausting the patient. Shortly after, provide small amounts of Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) or rice water to moisten the throat, stopping only when swallowing becomes possible. Additionally, have two people blow air into both ears using tubes; this method is most effective and ensures survival.
[Shan Shi] For hanging victims, never cut the rope. Use knees or hands wrapped in thick clothing to firmly press against the anus. Lift the victim to untie the rope, then place them down, rubbing the neck marks, stimulating the nasal cavity, and blowing into both ears. Wait until breath returns before releasing pressure; premature release of Qi makes rescue impossible.
*[Zhouhou Beiji Fang]* For those dead from hanging, calm the spirit and slowly untie the binding; do not cut the rope. Upon lifting, if the epigastrium is still warm, drip blood from a rooster's comb into the mouth to revive immediately. Use blood from a female rooster for males and a male rooster for females. Another prescription: take chicken excrement white (Ji Shi Bai) the size of a jujube, mix with half a cup of wine, and administer orally or nasally, which is particularly effective. *Qianjin Fang* uses indigo juice instead, with other methods remaining the same.
[Shan Shi] For sudden death caused by falling and crushing, rescue is possible as long as the heart region remains warm. Position the patient similarly to a monk sitting in meditation, have one person lower the head by holding the hair, and blow Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) powder into the nasal cavity. If revived, administer a mixture of fresh ginger juice and sesame oil.
[Zhongjing] Prescription for rescuing drowning victims. Bury the body up to the head and feet in two shi of ash from the stove; once water flows out from the seven orifices, the patient will revive.
[Shan Shi] Place the drowning victim supine on a long bench, elevating the foot end of the bench by two bricks. Rub salt mixed with water onto the umbilicus until water drains naturally. Do not lift the victim upside down to shake out water. In these cases, if the heart region is slightly warm, rescue is possible.
Another method: Victims drowned for one night may still be revived. Crush Zaojiao (Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus), wrap in cotton, and insert into the rectum. Water will discharge shortly after, reviving the patient.
[Shi Yi] Treatment for sleep paralysis (Yan Mi) or Zhong E (sudden collapse due to evil qi): grind Zaojiao (Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus) into powder, form granules the size of mung beans, and blow into the nasal cavity. Sneezing indicates the restoration of Qi flow.
[Shan Shi] For those dead from sleep paralysis, do not approach and call out loudly. Instead, bite the heel forcefully and spit on the face. If unconscious, slightly move the position and call softly. Keep existing lamps lit; if none exist, absolutely do not light new ones. Also use Zaojiao powder to stimulate the nose.
*[Zhouhou Beiji Fang]* For sudden unresponsiveness during sleep, do not illuminate with fire, as this may cause death. Bite the edge of the thumbnail forcefully and spit on the face to revive. Alternatively, crush Jiucai (Chinese Chive) to extract juice and blow into the nasal cavity. In winter, use juice extracted from Jiugen (Allium Tuberosum Root) administered orally.
*[Ji Yan Fang]* Treatment for sudden Yan Meng (sleep paralysis). Grind Xionghuang (Realgar) into fine powder and blow into the nasal cavity using a tube.
