Objective: This study was aimed at evaluating the effect and clarifying the treatment period of Korean medicine treatment for cerebral infarction.
Method: This study was carried out on patients with hemiplegia who were hospitalized in the Department of Korean Internal Medicine of Jecheon Korean Medicine Hospital of Semyung University from June 2014 to May 2019. A retrospective study was performed on 253 patients who were diagnosed with cerebral infarction by brain CT or nuclear magnetic resonance imaging.
Results and Conclusion: 1. Korean medicine treatment has a significant effect on improving the movement disorder and daily life independence of cerebral infarction. 2. In the group that started Korean medical treatment within one month after the onset of cerebral infarction, with the exception of MMSE-K, the indicators related to the movement disorder and daily life independence showed significant effect. 3. MMSE-K showed no statistically significant change in any of the patient groups. 4. Within three months after the onset date, the longer the period of treatment with Korean medicine, the better the symptom improvement of upper extremity movement disorder. 5. The longer the hospital stays, the better the symptom improvement of the lower extremity movement disorder. 6. The combination of Korean and Western medicine did not affect liver or kidney function.
