Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study aimed to describe the use of traditional Korean medicine to relieve chest pain, insomnia, and dyspnea in a patient with unstable angina pectoris
Methods: To relieve the symptoms, the patient was treated with a range of traditional Korean medicine, including acupuncture, moxibustion, and an herbal medicine (Gamiondam-tang-gagam). The numerical rating scale (NRS) was used to measure the patient¡¯s status and improvements in the frequency of symptoms.
Results: After the treatment, the NRS score for chest pain, insomnia, and dyspnea decreased from 10 to 0. In addition, chest pain and insomnia almost subsided.
Conclusions: This report suggests that Gamiondam-tang-gagam can be effective in relieving chest pain, insomnia, and dyspnea.
