The objective of this study is to discuss the role of integrative medicine (IM) in contemporary health care settings, and how and which factors affect and facilitate the success of IM in terms of the integration of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) and conventional medicine in primary health care (PHC). IM is meant to provide the best possible health care, for both patient and physician. The way of IM use in the developed countries presents various ways that IM can be provided, and it appears that strategies have been successfully developed to facilitate integration. Although few of the barriers to the integration of CAM and conventional medicine have been resolved, concerns over the legitimacy of CAM in health care (e.g., safety, biomedical evidence, and efficacy) are being overcome by the use of evidence-based practice in IM delivery. There are dominant models of IM that have been developed. The model types signify different levels of equity between CAM and conventional medicine in regard to the power, autonomy, and control held by each. However, the factors common to all IM models, whether describing CAM as supplementary or complementary to conventional medicine, is the concept of a health care model that aspires to be client-centred and holistic, with focus on health rather than disease as well as mutual respect among peer practitioners. Finally, this study concluded that the growth and viability of traditional Korean medicine(TKM) depend on evidence-based practices and identifying the successful influences on the integration of TKM and conventional medicine for recognition of its inherent value in PHC. Some recommendations for the integration of TKM and conventional medicine were suggested.

Objectives : Anxiety is an important mental health symptom associated with healthcare utilization. This research aims to identify the demographic, socio-economic, and health-related factors associated with the use of Korean medicine (KM) treatments in adults experiencing anxiety. Methods : We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using the Korea Health Panel Annual Data 2019. Logistic regression models were employed to examine the relationships between KM utilization and various factors such as economic activity, perceived stress levels, and presence of physical discomfort. The study sample included 552 adults experiencing anxiety. Results : Among the subjects, 19.20% were using both conventional treatment and KM treatment. The analysis revealed that individuals engaged in economic activities were more likely to use KM treatments compared to those who were not (odds ratio [OR] = 2.207, 95% confidential interval [CI] = 1.316 to 3.699). Additionally, individuals reporting high levels of pain or discomfort showed a significantly higher likelihood of using both KM and conventional medical services (OR = 2.933, 95% CI = 1.645 to 5.231). Musculoskeletal conditions were the most common reason for KM utilization among the study participants. Conclusion : The findings suggest that economic activity and the severity of physical discomfort significantly influence the use of KM treatments among adults with anxiety. These insights could inform healthcare policy and the integration of KM services into broader health management strategies for anxiety.

한의학은 대체의학이나 예방의학으로서의 활용이 가능한 우리나라의 독창적인 의료 체계이지만 세계시장 진출은 고사하고 국내에서의 인지도마저 낮은 실정이다. 이를 위해 한의학의 진단 기술과 IT 기술을 융합하여 한의학의 진단의 객관성을 확립함으로서 한의학의 대중화 및 인지도 상승을 위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있으나 망진에서 가장 중요한 색윤에 대한 연구가 이루어지지 않고 있는 실정에서 본 논문에서는 색윤을 특정 할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고 이를 실험을 통해 입증하고자 한다.

목적 : 본 연구는 한의약에서 사용하는 용어가 SNOMED CT로 매핑 가능한지 여부를 조사하고, 한의약 용어를 표현하기 위해 기존 SNOMED CT 온톨로지를 개선할 수 있는 방안을 제안하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 방법 : 선행 연구의 매핑 가이드라인에서 제시된 7단계 과정을 수정하여 활용하였다. 매핑의 목적 및 범위 정의, 용어 추출, 개념 추출, 매핑을 위한 소스 용어 작업, SNOMED CT 개념 검색, 매핑 관계 분류 및 매핑 검증의 과정을 수행하였다. 매핑의 목적은 한의약 임상 아이디어를 표현하는 표준 용어로서 SNOMED CT를 평가하는 것이고, 범위에는 편두통 환자 관리의 평가, 진단, 치료 및 예방을 포함하였다. 결과 : 총 546개의 용어가 추출되었다. 중복된 용어를 제거한 후, 271개의 개념이 SNOMED CT 매핑에 사용되었다. 이중 43.2%는 SNOMED CT 개념과 의미론적으로 동등하게 매핑되었고(117개 개념), 39.1%는 SNOMED CT 개념이 더 포괄적인 의미를 가지도록 매핑되었다(106개 개념). 상대적으로 포괄적인 의미를 가지는 SNOMED CT 개념에 매핑된 한의약 개념 106개 중 19개는 SNOMED CT 후조합을 이용하여 의미론적으로 동등하게 표현이 가능하였다. 나머지 17.7%의 한의약 개념은 SNOMED CT에 매핑할 수 없었다. 결론 : 본 연구는 한의약에서 사용되는 개념을 SNOMED CT에 매핑하여 한의약 용어를 표준화하였다. 연구 결과를 바탕으로, 한의약에서 사용되는 용어를 표준의료용어로 표현하기 위하여 SNOMED CT에 새로운 개념과 속성을 추가하는 것을 제안한다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report 3 cases of Korean medical treatment on adult atopic dermatitis. Methods : Three patients with adult atopic dermatitits were treated with herbal medicine (Soyo-san hap Samul-tang), acupuncture, and moxibustion. Psychosomatic symptoms were considered the main criteria for treatment. The effects of treatment were evaluated through photographs of the lesions, using EASI and DLQI scores. Results : After treatment, EASI and DLQI scores on three atopic dermatitis patients improved significantly. Conclusions : This clinical case study has demonstrated that Korean medicine may be an effective option for treating adult atopic dermatitis. In addition, considering psychosomatic symptoms when treating atopic dermatitis may also lead to effective treatment.

Objectives : This study aimed to investigate the perception level of Telemedicine among Korean medical doctors. Methods : The on-line survey was administered for Korean Medicine doctors. The survey consisted of 46 questions, addressing issues on concepts and adoption model of Telemedicine. Data were collected from 528 Korean medical doctors, and were analyzed using frequency analysis, t-test, ANOVA, and Kruskalwallis test. Results : The results showed that more than half of respondents had positive attitude towards implementation of Telemedicine in Korean Medicine and conventional medicine areas. Respondents were most positive about the aspect that Telemedicine could reduce 'hospital use by people with disabilities', while they were most concerned about the possibility that patients could be concentrated in large-scale hospitals. As prerequisites for the introduction of Telemedicine, accurate information delivery during remote communication between doctors and patients, clarification of responsibility for Telemedicine at the policy level, and development of equipment for accurate information delivery at the technical level received high responses. Conclusions : Korean Medicine doctors were positive about the implementation of Telemedicine, and they preferred to remote monitoring between doctors and patients. The development of medical equipment for accurate patient information delivery and the establishment of an institutional basis for clarifying responsibilities in case of medical accidents are required.

Objective : This study assessed the effect of a combination of Korean medicine on a thyroid papillary cancer patient who was diagnosed with local lymph node metastasis after thyroidectomy and lymph node dissection but did not want surgery. Methods : Gami-Palmultang administration and moxibustion(large Bmoxa cautery) were performed for six years. Treatment outcomes were evaluated with Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G), blood test/ CT imaging results, and patient's statements. Results : After the treatment, all symptoms have been alleviated, the quality of life has increased, and it has been maintained without further metastasis of tumors for six years. Conclusion : Korean medicine treatment along with active observation can be an alternative to patients who do not want surgical treatment after recurrence of local lymph nodes in thyroid papillary cancer, and can have positive results in improving the quality of life.
