火脉洪数，虚则浮。《脉经》火性燔烈，抑之则空，故火盛脉浮取洪大，中按软阔，重按空豁。洪盛满指，
为实火；数大无力，为虚火。恶寒战栗，脉小匿者，为火郁。弦细而数，按之益坚，为少火气衰，而见肝肾
真脉，非火使然，乃虚劳剧候。或更虚大疾数，为壮火食气，耗竭真阴，虚阳飞越之象。久病得此，百不一生，
惟元气暴脱，犹可峻补以敛固之，脉洪而重按益实者，有形之湿热，与火无预。（《张氏医通》）

火脉表现为洪大且数，若属虚证则脉象浮取可见。《脉经》指出，火的性质如同烈火焚烧猛烈，若被抑制则显得空虚，因此火势旺盛时，轻取（浮取）脉象洪大，中取（中按）柔软宽阔，重取（重按）则感觉空豁无力。脉象洪盛充满指下，属于实火；脉象数大但无力，属于虚火。出现恶寒战栗，脉象细小隐匿的，属于火郁证。脉象弦细而数，重按时更加坚实有力的，是少火之气衰败，显露出肝肾的真脏脉，这并非由火邪引起，而是虚劳病的危重征候。或者脉象虚大且疾速，这是壮火食气，耗竭真阴，导致虚阳飞越的征象。久病之人出现这种脉象，百人中难有一人生还，只有元气突然暴脱的情况，还可以用峻猛的补益药来收敛固摄。脉象洪大但重按时反而坚实的，是有形之湿热所致，与火邪无关。（出自《张氏医通》）

Pulse patterns of Fire present as surging (Hong) and rapid (Shu); if deficient, the pulse floats. The *Mai Jing* (Classic of Pulse Diagnosis) states that the nature of Fire is like a raging fire; when suppressed, it appears empty. Therefore, when Fire is excessive, the pulse feels surging and large upon light palpation (floating), soft and broad upon moderate pressure, and hollow upon heavy pressure. A pulse that is surging and fills the fingers indicates Excess Fire; a pulse that is rapid and large but forceless indicates Deficient Fire. Aversion to cold with shivering, accompanied by a small and hidden pulse, indicates Stagnant Fire. A pulse that is wiry (Xian) and thin (Xi) with a rapid rate, becoming harder upon deep pressure, indicates the decline of Lesser Fire Qi, revealing the True Pulses of the Liver and Kidneys; this is not caused by Fire itself, but is a critical sign of severe Consumption Disease (Xu Lao). Alternatively, a pulse that is deficient, large, and rapid indicates that Blazing Fire has consumed Qi, exhausting True Yin, presenting as a phenomenon of Floating Yang flying away. If such a pulse appears in a chronic illness, fewer than one in a hundred will survive; only in cases of sudden collapse of Yuan Qi can strong tonification be used to consolidate and secure it. A pulse that is surging but becomes solid upon heavy pressure indicates有形 Damp-Heat, unrelated to Fire. (From *Zhang Shi Yi Tong*)
