ABSTRACT

1. Objectives The purpose of this case is to report that a Soeumin patient with cognitive disorder from traumatic head injury needed to be managed with the consideration of the difference of Nature and Emotion(性情). 2. Methods To evaluate the patient's cognition disorder and mental state, we performed the MMSE(Mini-Mental State Examination) and the MMPI(Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory). and he was diagnosed as Soeumin and treated by Kwakhyangchungki-san(藿香正氣散) mainly. 3. Results and Conclusions ① In this case, we observed specifically-biased Nature and Emotion(性情) of Soeumin like “恒欲處而不欲出”, “恒欲爲雌而不欲爲雄”, “喜別人之助己也”, “喜好不定”, “不安定之心” ② The management of Soeumin with cognitive disorder from traumatic head injury is that he or she should live together his or her family, and have an active manner with a generous and broad-minded mental attitude. ③ A therapist must give a patient mental support and inspire him or her with courage. ④ The deviation of Nature and Emotion(性情) should be taken into consideration when we manage the patient with cognitive disorder from traumatic head injury.
