|
Objectives: This study aimed to describe the effects of traditional Korean medical treatment on a patient with asthma.
Methods: The patient (female, 88) was treated with herbal medicine (Sojaganggi-tang), acupuncture, and moxibustion. The effects of these treatments were evaluated using the Modified Borg Scale (MBS) and Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adult Korean Asthmatics (QLQAKA).
Results: Following treatment, the MBS score decreased from 7 to 4, and the QLQAKA score increased from 45 to 57.
Conclusion: The results suggest that traditional Korean medicine can effectively treat patients with asthma.
