Abstract

In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), diseases on the left or right side of the human body have been treated differently according to the theory of Donguibogam, which is an encyclopedic source for TKM. In the Wind chapter of Donguibogam, left hemiparesis due to stroke is called Tan, a sort of Hyeol-Byeong, and right hemiparesis due to stroke is called Tan, a sort of Gi-Byeong. As neuroscience develops, it has been shown that the functions of the left and right hemispheres differ, as do the symptoms caused by differently located lesions in the brain. In light of these recent findings and the theory of Donguibogam, it may be useful when treating patients in clinical practice to consider the side of the human body on which symptoms appear. The aim here is to establish whether side-dependent treatments are more effective in treating patients with symptoms on different sides of the body. Specifically, this exploratory study investigates changes in gait pattern among stroke patients with hemiparesis or hemiplegia during gait recovery. To develop this protocol, a retrospective review of charts will be used to assess differences in gait recovery patterns among stroke patients with left or right hemiparesis, using gait analysis systems ...Continue Reading
