본 연구는 대전대학교 대전한방병원 한방안이비인후 피부과에 만성 화농성 중이염에 동반된 이진균증으로 입원 및 통원 치료를 받은 환자 1례를 보고한다. 본 증례의 환자는 상기 증상으로 한방 단독 치료를 시행한 환자로서 침, 약침, 전침, 뜸, 한약, 사혈, 습식 부항 및 한방 외용제 치료를 시행하였다. 초진 시 호소한 좌측 귀의 소양감, 통증, 이명, 충만감 및 농성 이루는 호전된 상태로 퇴원하였고, 이후 통원 치료를 통하여 잔여 증상의 호전 및 이진균증의 소실도 확인되었다. 본 연구는 이진균증 치료에 일차적으로 적용하는 항진균제의 사용 없이 한방 단독 치료로 호전을 보였다는 점과 항진균 효과를 위해 국소 한방 외용제를 사용하였다는 점에서 이후 이진균증의 한방 치료 효과를 평가하는 추가 연구에 유의미한 자료로 사용될 것으로 사료된다.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to analyze the charcateristics of inpatients in Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology & Dermatology Clinic by gender, age, season, and department of medical care after hospitalization from March, 2012 to February, 2018. Method : From March 1, 2012 to February 28, 2018, patients who were admitted to the Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology & Dermatology Clinic of Korean Medical Hospital were classified by gender, age, department, and season, and their relationship, hospitalization period, number of outpatient visits Differences were analyzed objectively using various statistical methods using IBM SPSS 18.0. Results : 1. The number of inpatients was 432, including duplication. Of these, 317 were female and 115 were male. The number of female patients was 2.8 times higher. 2. The average age of the inpatients was 43.9 years and the number of middle-aged 40-50 patients was 48.6%. 3. The number of inpatients in the departments was in the order of dermatology, otology, laryngology, rhinology, and ophthalmology. The most hospitalized diseases were eczema in the dermatology department, sudden hearing loss in the otology department, tonsillitis/peritonsillar abscess, rhinitis in the rhinology department, and dry eye syndrome in ophthalmology. 1) The effect of gender on the difference in the number of inpatients by subdivision was statistically significant. 2) The effect of age on the difference in the number of inpatients by subdivision was statistically significant. 3) The effect of seasons on the difference in the number of inpatients was not statistically significant. 4. The number of inpatients by season was in the order of winter, spring, summer, autumn, and the number of inpatients decreased significantly in autumn. 1) The effect of gender on the difference in the number of hospitalized patients by season was not statistically significant. 2) The effect of age on the difference in the number of hospitalized patients by season was not statistically significant. 5. The average length of hospital stay for inpatients was 10.7 days. 1) The effect of gender on length of hospital stay was not statistically significant. 2) The effect of age on hospital stay was not statistically significant. 3) The effect of the subdivision on hospital stay was statistically significant. 4) The effect of the season on hospital stay was not statistically significant. Conclusion : As a result of this study, the most distinctive feature of the present study was the high rate of inpatients with otic disease like idiopathic hearing loss and Meniere 's syndrome and the high rate of female patients. This may be related to the increased prevalence of the disease and the severity of the disease. In addition, the high rate of female patients suggests that women are more likely to be affected by illnesses, as well as to have more medical use and severe symptoms requiring hospitalization. In the future, it would be better to provide various treatment plans and policies for patients with otic diseases and female patients. Also it would be good if studies on these fields are made in the future.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of tinnitus patients according to the presence of headache. Methods : The medical records of 110 tinnitus patients who visited oo Korean Medicine Clinic from June 2019 to June 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical characteristics including gender, age, onset, cause, tinnitus site, severity of tinnitus and accompanied symptoms were analyzed. Results : Among all patients, 40s and 50s and chronic tinnitus over 1 year was the most frequent group. After an average of 2 months of treatment, 61 patients(55.5%) showed improvement, and there were prescribed more frequently 50s and 60s and with tinnitus grade mild to moderate group. The proportions of female(65%, p=0.012) and herbal dialectics which 'tonify and replenish' and 'tranquilize'(32.5%, p=0.043) were prescribed more frequently in patients with headache than those without headache. Dizziness, ear pain, heart symptoms, fatigue, and neck stiffness were more frequent in patients with headache(p<0.05). In patients with improvement in tinnitus, tinnitus grade improved significantly in patients with improvement in headache compared to those with no improvement in headache(1.83±0.79 vs 0.80±0.84, p=0.018). Conclusions : In tinnitus patients treated with Korean medicine, there was no significant difference in the improvement of tinnitus according to the presence or improvement of headache, but the patients with improvement of both tinnitus and headache showed significantly more degree of improvement in tinnitus severity than patients with only tinnitus improved. Based on these findings, further study is needed regarding the correlation headache and tinnitus in clinical setting.
