Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze research trends on facial synkinesis after bell’s palsy in order to build stepping stone in the hope of further related study in Korean medicine society.
Methods: We searched Pubmed with the title "facial synkinesis" only developed after bell’s palsy for the last 10 years and analyzed their impact factors, interventions, types of study, published countries, journals and years.
Results: We found 12 papers and interventions included in each studies turned out to be effective and showed meaningful outcomes, but, the number of papers is still inadequate though, constantly published annually. And we were unable to find any studies with oriental treatments.
Conclusions: Further attention and studies are needed on this topic in Korean medicine society in order to search appropriate oriental clinical care for the bell’s palsy patients suffering facial synkinesis.
