Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : This work aimed to review clinical trial trend of Korean medicine's face rejuvenation and suggest future trial using embedded needle(Maesun) based on Evidence-based medicine's PICO Model.
Methods : 46 papers were searched from Oasis and DBPia, then 8 papers were engaged in review of clinical trial trend. Based on PICO model, clinical trial's patient, intervention, and outcome measurement were suggested.
Results : Evidence level of clinical trials is relatively low, because their study designs are almost case report or case series. No study have comparison groups. Outcome measurement is varied, however, 3D face scanner were used to measure before-after changes of face. Based on review, we suggested that necessity of intervention standardization, measuring of normal control group and 2D/3D combined outcome measurement of face.
Conclusions : There are many demands for revealing efficacy and safety of Korean medicine's intervention, also for face rejuvenation using embedded needle. For meeting the level of demands, more rigorous works are needed.
