ABSTRACT

ObjectivesThis study is planned to classify effectiveness of Korean medicine treatment on lumbar intervertebral Disc herniation patients' fear-avoidance belief.MethodsWe measured 84 patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation in Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital. We used numeric rating scale, oswestry disability index, fear-avoidance belief questionaire for evaluating effectiveness of oriental medicine treat-ment on lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. And We used Magentic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for classifying the patient who has lumbar intervertebral disc or not.Results1. There was statistical effectiveness of korean medicine treatment on lumbar in-tervertebral disc herniation patients' fear-avoidance belief (p<0.01). ΔNRS and ΔODI (r=0.587) was Most statistically correlative. ΔODI and ΔFABQ had a little of statistically correlation (r=0.313). ΔNRS and ΔFABQ has no statistically correlation (r=0.145).ConclusionsThis study suggests that screening for the korean medicine treatment re-duces fears and negative belief of patients with the lumbar disc herniation and prevents chronic physical symptoms that come from them so that it can be a great help to control-ling patients' pain clinically.
