Abstract

Objectives : This study was conducted to analyze the Korean Medicine treatment on Tension-type Headache (TTH) in Korean clinical studies. Methods : Articles were searched from four Korean databases(KISS, RISS, OASIS, ScienceON). Study type, publication year, demographic information of participants, intervention type and details, outcome measurements and treatment results of selected articles were analyzed. Results : 17 articles were selected among those published until January 15th 2023. 'Cheonghyulgangki-tang', acupuncture at 'GV20', moxibustion at 'CV12', pharmacopunture at 'GB20', 'ByeolGab' were most frequently used in treatment on TTH. 'Numeric Rating Scale(NRS)' and 'Visual Analog Scale(VAS)' were most frequently used in outcome measurements. All of the articles exhibited that Korean Medicine treatments improved symptoms of TTH. Conclusion : This study showed that various Korean Medicine treatments for TTH were effective. This finding could be used in clinical practice and build the basis for the direction of clinical practice guidelines in future, Nevertheless, this study has few limitations. Further systematic reviews and meta analyses of randomized controlled trials are required for more evidence on Korean Medicine.
