초록

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of patients who visited the emergency room (ER) of a Korean medicine (KM) hospital and to provide basic data for further research. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis using electronic medical records of 263 patients who visited the ER of OO University Oriental Hospital from January 1 to December 31, 2019. Results: Of the 263 patients' medical records, 245 were included in this analysis. The male-to-female ratio was 1.09:1. The average age was 52 years, with patients in their 40s having the largest distribution. The district where the hospital was located had the largest number of patients. The distribution by visit time was the lowest in the early morning. Most patients visited on Sunday, in September, and on the day of onset. The admission rate was 39.18%, and largest number of patients was admitted to the Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion. The percentage of patients who revisited the KM hospital as an outpatient were 26.17%. The diagnosis for most patients was musculoskeletal disease. Acupuncture was the most common treatment, accounting for 62.45% of the cases, followed by herbal medicines, accounting for 54.69% of the cases. National health insurance was the most common type of insurance registered. Most patients visited the ER of the KM hospital via the ER of the hospital. Conclusions: This clinical analysis helped us identify the characteristics of patients visiting the ER of a KM hospital. Continuous data accumulation is required in relation to this for further studies.
