Acute myeloid leukemia ( AML) is a form of cancer characterized by infiltration of proliferative, clonal, and abnormally differentiated cells of the hematopoietic system into the bone marrow, blood, and other tissues. Clinically, the eligible AML patients first receive induction therapy to achieve complete remission (CR). Unfortunately, minimal residual diseases usually persist in CR, which will inevitably lead to relapse if treatment is discontinued. In traditional Chi-nese medicine ( TCM) , it is believed that the weakness of healthy qi is one of the basic patholo-gies of leukemia after remission, and is also the major cause for relapse. This article primarily in-vestigated the key points of common syndromes, TCM nursing methods and healthy guidance of AML, aiming at maintaining and developing the strengths of TCM, improving its efficacy and standardizing its behavior.
