With an aging population, the number of patients with difficulty in swallowing due to medical conditions is gradually increasing. In such cases, enteral nutrition is administered through a temporary nasogastric tube. However, the long-term use of a nasogastric tube leads to various complications and a decreased quality of life. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is the percutaneous placement of a tube into the stomach that is aided endoscopically and may be an alternative to a nasogastric tube when enteral nutritional is required for four weeks or more. This paper is the first Korean clinical guideline for PEG developed jointly by the Korean College of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research and led by the Korean Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. These guidelines aimed to provide physicians, including endoscopists, with the indications, use of prophylactic antibiotics, timing of enteric nutrition, tube placement methods, complications, replacement, and tube removal for PEG based on the currently available clinical evidence.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the Korean medicine treatment methods for Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN) in Korea. There were 5 online databases searched (OASIS, NDSL, RISS, KISS and KMBASE) for studies which were related to PHN. A total of 12 studies were selected. Various treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and moxibustion were reported treatments for PHN, some of which included Western medicine and Korean medicine treatment. Korean herbal medicine was the most frequently used treatment method, followed by manual acupuncture. Sipjeondaebotanggami was the most frequently used prescription. Poria Sclerotium was the most frequently used principal herb, followed by Angelicae Gigantis Radix, Zingiberis Rhizoma, and Ginseng Radix. GB44, LI4, LR3 were the common acupoints used for the treatment of PHN. CV12 was the most frequently used moxibustion point, and gabapentin was the most frequently used concomitant Western drug. Additional research on Korean medicine treatment of PHN is expected in the future.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Korean medicine on a patient with dizziness due to hippocampal sclerosis. Methods: A 51-year-old woman with dizziness, diagnosed with hippocampal sclerosis, was treated with herbal medication, acupuncture, and moxibustion. Her improvement was evaluated by a balance test, NRS, and the percentage of dizziness severity compared to that on her admission day. Results: Improvement in the balance test result and NRS, and a decrease of percentage of dizziness severity, were observed after treatment with Korean medicine. Conclusions: This study suggests that treatment with Korean medicine may be an effective therapy for dizziness due to hippocampal sclerosis.

This case study reports on the effect of Korean medicine on a catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. An 83-year-old man diagnosed with stroke had dysuria, and it was found that an indwelling urinary catheter led to CAUTI. From laboratory tests, we identified multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and applied Korean medicine to him. After herbal medication with acupuncture and moxibustion, we studied a urinalysis and urine culture again for follow-up. We found meaningful improvement in bacteriuria and bacterial identification. This case suggests that Korean medicine could have a beneficial effect on urinary tract infections caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
