ABSTRACT |
Urinary tract infection(UTI) is common complication in stroke patient. As it has negative effect on the recovery of stroke, it should be cured out immediately. There have been several reports about treating urinary tract infection with Traditional Korean Medication. But report about upper urinary tract infection(acute pyelonephritis) is rare. We prescribed Shiryung-tang-gagambang without antibiotics for two stroke patients who have symptoms of acute pyelonephritis(fever, chilling, costovertebral angle tenderness, flank pain, suprapubic pain, leukocytosis, hematuria etc.). After 7days patient s symptoms and laboratory findings were improved. |
