Abstract
Objectives: This study evaluated the effects of traditional Korean medicine treatment on a patient with asthma. Methods: A patient was treated with acupuncture, herbal medicine, and cupping. The effect of treatment was evaluated via the quality of life questionnaire for adult Korean asthmatics (QLQAKA), the visual analog scale (VAS), and night awakening frequency. Results: After treatment, improvements were observed. The total QLQAKA score increased from 36 to 50. Conclusions: This study observed that traditional Korean medicine treatments are effective in caring for a patient with asthma.
