  • Objectives : Moxibustion therapeutics is one of the most popular oriental treatments in Korea. In this study, we operate the Telephone Survey for grasping clinical actual state moxibustion therapeutics in Korea. Methods : Survey questions were developed based on consensus of acupuncture professors. The list of the Korean medical doctors with experiences more than 10 years is provided by the Association of the Korean Oriental Medicine. A stratified random sample of Korean medical doctors is drawn for the telephone interviews. We choose a bound on the error of estimation equal to 6.5 percentage, and the sample size is 260 for the national sample. Telephone interviews with them were conducted by the well-trained interviewers of Korea Institute of Oriental Medicine in Medical researcher from 26th March 2007 to 6th April 2007. Results : Ninty -four percents of Korean oriental medical doctors were male and most commonly, clinical experience of doctors were 20-29 years(47.3%). Sixty-seven percent of Korean oriental medical doctors used moxibustion therapeutics. The most common treatment disease was Musculo-skeletal disorder(38.3%), Digestive disorder(28.6%), Gynecology(14.1%). Indirect moxibustion were as frequent as 65.5% of moxibustion method. The most common reason of unused respondents was 'Lots of smell and smoke'(28.3%), 'The wound left a scar'(20.8%), 'Less effects'(20%), etc. Eighty-three percents Korean oriental medical doctors were against that moxibustion therapy used without doctor's examination Conclusions : This survey provides unique insight into the perception of the Korea medical doctor at moxibustion therapeutics. Future research need to provide more in-depth insight into doctor views of the experience.

  • 한의학의 뜸 요법은 잘 알려져 있으나, 현재까지도 쑥을 연소하여 시술하는 고전적 방식을 많이 사용하고 있다. 대체의학의 뜸 기기 개발에서, 뜸에서 반응하는 인체의 특징 및 요소들을 파악하는 것은 중요하다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 뜸 요법에 대한 뇌파변화를 고찰하고자, 자극을 가하지 않은 무자극 대상군과 간접 뜸 방식을 적용한 대상군으로 나누어, 뜸 자극에서 중요하게 여겨지는 관원(CV4), 신궐(CV8), 그리고 중완(CV12)의 경혈 점에 자극을 주어 뇌파 변화의 특징을 비교 분석하였다.

  • 뇌파에 관한 연구는 의학 및 공학 분야에서 많이 활성화 되어 있지만, 침구학에서의 뇌파분석에 과한 연구는 아직 많이 이루어져야 할 부분 중 하나이다. 그러므로 본 연구는 침구요법 중 간접 뜸 자극에 의한 뇌파를 분석하고 자율신경계와의 상관관계를 분석을 하고자 한다. 본 연구의 실험은 간접 쑥 뜸을 인체의 중완, 신궐, 관원의 경혈 점에 자극하고, 자극 전, 자극 중, 자극 후 1시간, 그리고 자극 후 2시간 일 때의 뇌파를 측정한다. 그리고 측정된 데이타는 Matlab 7.0을 이용하여 FFT 및 주파수 파워 스펙트럼을 적용하여 ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\delta}$, ${\theta}$파 성분을 자극 단계별로 나누어 주파수 각 성분 비율의 변화, 그리고 진폭의 크기변화량에 대하여 분석 고찰하였다. 본 연구의 결과, EEG 데이터를 FFT를 적용하여 ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\delta}$, ${\theta}$파의 비율을 분석한 결과 ${\alpha}$파가 자극 전보다 자극 후 약 2배 정도 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 전체의 파워스펙트럼 분석에서 ${\alpha}$파, ${\beta}$파의 에너지가 전체적으로 감소하므로 부교감신경이 활성화됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구와 기존 연구의 결과를 비교해 보면, 간접 뜸 자극은 자율신경계의 변화에 영향을 줄 수 있으며 ${\alpha}$파의 비율적 증가로 긴장 상태나 스트레스 상태의 사람에게 안정을 가져다 줄 수 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

  • Objectives : The conventional direct and indirect moxibustion therapies for prostate treatment could not been applied to the acupuncture point of $CV_1$(Conception Vessel Meridian 1, 會陰) because of its boring body region. The position of $CV_1$(會陰) is the back side of hard part between the anus and the genital organ. The conventional moxibustion methods have many troubles in operating to the acupuncture point of $CV_1$(會陰). In order to get rid of these problems, we have suggested the special heat generating terminal especially for prostate. The features of the special heat generating terminal for prostate are the low temperature infrared heater and the adhesive moxa-pad. These features are no burnt, no fiery and especially suitable for the point of $CV_1$(會陰). Methods: The heat generating terminal which is a part of the moxa-extract moxibustion cauterizer is composed of a PTC(Positive Temperature Coefficients) ceramic heater and the adhesive moxa-pad We had got the experimental demonstrations by the stimulating the acupuncture points which are $CV_1$(會陰), $BL_{28}$(Bladder Meridian 28, 膀胱兪), and $CV_3$(Conception Vessel Meridian 3, 中極) with the special heat generating terminal for the prostatitis and the benign prosthetic hypertrophy. And the stimulation level was 43$^{\circ}C$ infrared heat for one hour. The type of thermography is IRIS-5000. Results : With one subject suffering the prostatitis and another subject suffering the benign prosthetic hypertrophy, we cauterized the acupuncture points $CV_1$(會陰), $BL_{28}$(膀胱兪) and $CV_3$(中極) with the special heat generating terminal for prostate. We measured the temperature variations by the thermography before and after stimulations. Finally we estimated the tendency of temperature decreasing in the region of post-stroke urinary symptoms and the improvement of nocturnal enuresis after the stimulations. Conclusions : We suggest that the special heat generating terminal of moxa-extract moxibustion cauterizer proposed herein is effective for the treatment of prostate by NIH-CPSI and IPSS.

  • Objectives : The aim of this study was to observe the pain relief effect of moxibustion therapy in a patient with complex regional pain syndrome(CRPS). Methods : A male with type I CRPS, 48-year-old, who suffered from severe pain and paresthesia on his legs despite of treatments of oral medications and spinal cord stimulation was treated by indirect moxibustion following Korean medicine dianosis. Total 20 moxibustion treatments(once daily, 5 days a week, for 4 weeks) were given on the 4 acupoints(both side) where known to be effective fro the CRPS. Visual analogue scale(VAS), digital infrared thermal imaging(DITI), Beck depression index(BDI) were evaluated before and after the treatments. Pain relief, thermal changes on affected legs, and improvement of depression scale were observed after the treatments. Results : As for DITI, right thigh showed low temperature compared with left on before the treatments. While after the treatments, DITI showed similar temperature in both legs at discharge day. Conclusions : Though it is a case report, moxibustion therapy might have pain relief effect. Further rigorous case series and controlled trials are warranted.
