| ABSTRACT |
Objectives:
This clinical study reports on the effects of Yukgunja-tang on aspiration pneumonia.
Method:
This case examined a comatose male patient who suffers from continuous regurgitation. He showed symptoms of aspiration pneumonia with accompanying gastroesophageal reflux. We gave the patient Yukgunja-tang for 28 days and observed any changes in symptoms.
Results:
During the period when the patient was given Yukgunja-tang, he defecated on his own without glycerin enema, regurgitation occurred less frequently, and the aspiration pneumonia symptoms improved.
Conclusion:
Yukgunja-tang helped the patient’s bowel movements move more quickly and smoothly through his colon. As a result, Yukgunja-tang appears to have prevented regurgitation and aspiration pneumonia. |
| Key words:
Yukgunja-tang, aspiration pneumonia, gastroesphageal reflux, regurgitation, bowel movement |
