Objectives The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of ShinBaro pharmacopuncture and Jungsongouhyul pharmacopuncture on whiplash injury by traffic accident. Methods This study was carried out on 30 patients who received treatment in Jaseng Hospital of Korean Medicine. 30 patients were divided ShinBaro pharmacopuncture group and Jungsongouhyul pharmacopuncture group. Visual analog scale (VAS) and neck disability index (NDI) were compared after treatment. Results 1) Both the ShinBaro group and Jungsongouhyul group showed significant improvement in the visual analog scale (VAS) and neck disability index (NDI) after 3 weeks of treatment. 2) The VAS and NDI of the ShinBaro group decreased gradually with treatment. The VAS scores showed significant improvement up to week 2, but although week 3 showed further improvement compared to week 2, the difference did not reach statistical significance. The NDI scores showed significant improvement consistantly throughout the treatment period. 3) The VAS and NDI of the Jungsongouhyul group decreased with treatment also. The VAS scores significantly improved up to week 2, but though week 3 showed further improvement in comparison to week 2, the difference did not reach statistical significance. The NDI scores showed significant improvement consistantly throughout the treatment period. 4) Although the ShinBaro group showed a swifter decline than the Jungsongouhyul group in both VAS and NDI scores, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions We found out that ShinBaro pharmacopuncture group and Jungsongouhyul pharmacopuncture group is effective and useful in whiplash injury by traffic accident. And, further studies will be needed.

Objective : The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of ShinBaro Pharmacopuncture in the treatment of patients with Lumbar spine Herniated Nucleus Pulposus. Methods : We investigated 20 cases of patients with lumbar disc herniation and devided into two groups. Experimental group were treated with ShinBaro Pharmacopuncture with integrated package treatment and control group were treated the same therapies without ShinBaro Pharmacopuncture. To evaluate the treatment effects of two groups, we used numeric rating scale(NRS), oswestry disability index(ODI). Results : In NRS of lumbar and sciatica pain and ODI, that of experimental group was much more improved than control group, and decrement of NRS of lumbar pain showed statistical significance along with the duration of treatment. Conclusions : ShinBaro Pharmacopuncture was thought to be effective for relieving symptoms of lumbar spine herniated nucleus pulposus, although further study is needed.

Objectives : The Purpose of this study is to compare the effect of ShinBaro Pharmacopuncture Treatment and Bee Venom Pharmacopuncture Treatment of low back pain and radicular pain caused by spondylolisthesis. Methods : From January 1st,2012 to September 30th, 2012, 30 Low back pain and radicular pain patients with spondylolisthesis who were admitted to Bu-Cheon Jaseng Hospital of Oriental Medicine were divided into two groups. ShinBaro group was treated by ShinBaro Pharmacopuncture Treatment and Bee Venom group was treated by Bee Venom Pharmacopuncture Treatment. We evaluated the treatment effect of each group with numerical rating scale(NRS) and Oswestry disability index(ODI). The evaluations performed at admission day and 14th day after admission. Results : In both ShinBaro group and Bee Venom group, NRS and ODI decreased significantly in ststistics as treatment was perfomed. Though ShinBaro group showed a decreasing ODI score compared to BV group and BV group showed a decreasing NRS score compared to Shinbaro group, There is no statistical significance on NRS and ODI score after the treatment in both groups. Conclusions : The result sugguest that both ShinBaro pharmacopuncture treatment and Bee Venom pharmacopuncture treatment is considered to be effective and useful on low back pain and radicular pain caused by spondylolisthesis, although further study is needed.
