Abstract
This study aimed to review case reports of Korean medical treatments for sudden sensory neural hearing loss published in Korea from 1980 to 2016. We searched sudden sensory neural hearing loss through 6 major Korean web article search engines and search period was January 1980 to September 2016. Two researchers included studies on sudden hearing loss, clinical studies on korean medical treatments, and excluded in vivo studies, in vitro studies, non-original studies, published abstracts only, and studies not published in Korean or English. 19 articles were included in this study from 63 articles. Only one case report used Korean medical treatment alone. The most tools for treatment were acupunture, herbal medicine, pharmacopunture, moxibustion, cupping treatment and laser therapy. Most acupoints used in the treatment is SI19(聽宮). When patients got treated sooner, recovery rate was better. There was no direct relationship between recovery rate and degree of hearing loss. This study suggests that more research about sudden sensory neural hearing loss is needed in the future.
