Abstract

Objectives: The aim of study was to develop a standard clinical oriental medicine evaluation instrument for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: We appointed 10 respiratory professors of oriental medicine as the advisory committee. The committee was organized and met several times to discuss the patterns of syndrome differentiation (辨證) and its items based on clinical symptoms of COPD patients and review of published literature. Then the committee investigated the importance of items by e-mail and decided the weight and final weight, respectively. Results: According to the answers and conferences, we determined the Korean oriental medical assessment tool for COPD comprised of the 7 type of patterns of syndrome differentiation which have 9 items with the mean weight and final weight of each item, respectively. Conclusions: This Korean oriental medical assessment tool for COPD was newly developed through expert consensus. We expect to apply this tool to subsequent research as its validity and reliability is further confirmed.
