Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Korean medicine treatments on pain reduction and functional improvement of patients after rotator cuff surgery. We studied 10 patients who had admitted to Dunsan Korean Medical hospital after have being diagnosed as rotator cuff tear and got a surgery at other hospital from April 30, 2014 to April 30, 2019. This study was conducted as retrospective study which analyzes patient's medical records. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS statistics 24 program. We used Numeric Rating Scale to evaluate pain reduction, Range of Motion to evaluate shoulder functional improvement and Five-point likert scale to evaluate the patient's satisfaction. The result showed that Korean medicine treatments statistically significantly reduced pain on the patients after rotator cuff surgery. Although there were improvement of Range of Motion, it wasn't statistically significant. In conclusion, we found that the Korean medicine treatments showed a positive effect on pain reduction of patients after rotator cuff surgery and got a high satisfaction.

韩国医学对肩袖术后患者的影响:一项回顾性观察研究

本研究的目的是探讨韩国药物治疗对肩袖手术后疼痛减轻和功能改善的影响。我们研究了2014年4月30日至2019年4月30日期间，被诊断为肩袖撕裂并在其他医院接受手术的10名患者。本研究为回顾性研究，分析患者的医疗记录。采用IBM SPSS statistics 24程序进行统计分析。我们使用数字评定量表评估疼痛减轻程度，活动范围评估肩部功能改善程度，五点李克特量表评估患者满意度。结果显示，韩国医学治疗明显减轻了肩袖手术后患者的疼痛。虽然活动度有所改善，但在统计学上无显著性差异。综上所述，我们发现韩国药治疗对肩袖手术后患者的疼痛减轻有积极的效果，并获得了很高的满意度。
