Basic Information
Scope
Main technical content: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by the interaction of genetic background and environmental factors, characterized by persistent inflammatory reactions of the colorectal mucosa, with lesions being continuous, involving the rectum and varying degrees of involvement in the colon. Clinically, it is characterized by recurrent attacks and remissions alternating with each other. In recent years, the incidence and prevalence of ulcerative colitis in China have been increasing rapidly, and it has become a common clinical disease, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of this disease has the characteristics of good clinical efficacy and low recurrence rate, and is widely accepted by patients, becoming a feature and advantage of China. However, there is still a lack of standardized guidance documents with high-level evidence-based medicine evidence, so it is necessary to formulate relevant guidelines to give full play to the role of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of ulcerative colitis. This guideline refers to the method and process of formulating international clinical practice guidelines, and under the guidance of relevant laws, regulations and technical documents, based on the best available evidence and fully combining the clinical experts' experience and patients' wishes, formulates the Traditional Chinese Medicine Guidelines for Ulcerative Colitis (Primary Care Physician Edition), with the aim of rationally standardizing the application of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of ulcerative colitis and improving clinical efficacy.
