Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report the effect of TKM (Traditional Korean Medicine) to abdominal pain after laparoscopic gynecological surgery(LGS).
Methods: 10 patients who visited the department of gynecology in OO medical center from 1st August 2007 to 31st December 2008 with abdominal pains after laparoscopic operation. They complained abdominal pain and other pains such as back pain, shoulder pain and vaginal bleeding etc. We treated patients with herb medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion treatment. The progress of signs and symptoms was evaluated by checking the change of visual analog scale(VAS).
Results: The mean age was 45.1 years(range 38-49), parity 2(0-3) and previous abdominal surgery case was 5. The mean of hospital admitting day was 20 days(range 9- 51) and taken for reducing VAS 10 to 3 were 10 days(range 4-24). After taking TKM, patient’s signs and symptoms were alleviated or resolved and Hb, Hct were increased.
