论小儿推拿腧穴名称纳入中医药国际术语标准体系的必要性及其建议

摘要

近年来,国内外一些不同权威组织都制定并颁布了中医药术语的国际标准,但这些标准始终未将小儿推拿腧穴名称包含在内.本文从小儿推拿的历史、现状和穴位特殊性三方面阐述了将小儿推拿穴名纳入国际术语标准体系的必要性,并指出小儿推拿穴名尚存在穴位数量记载不一、临床应用比较混乱和英译所采用的策略不尽相同等问题,并就此提出相应对策,希望今后的中医药术语国际标准制定和修订尽快纳入小儿推拿穴名.%In recent years, many versions of international standard terminologies on TCM have been established and enacted by different authoritative organizations worldwide. However, infantile tuina acupoints have never been included in them. The article illustrated the necessity of including infantile tuina acupoints in the international standard terminologies on TCM from the aspects of history, present state and specificity of these points. It also pointed out some problems of infantile tuina acupoints, such as different records of acupoints numbers, applications in the clinic and strategies applied in their English translation, and suggestions were provided accordingly, hoping that the infantile tuina acupoints can be included in the further revised versions of international standard terminologies on TCM.
