Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to assess and analyze the characteristics and usage of conventional and Korean medical services in postoperative patients. This study therefore investigates the proportion of patients with a history of surgery out of patients visiting a spine-specialty Korean medicine hospital, and the prognosis and preference for conventional and Korean medicine treatment by previous treatment history in postoperative patients.
Detailed Description: A considerable number of patients suffer prolonged chronic pain that does not retract or diminish after surgery, and are thus unable to achieve the desired results in receiving surgical treatment. Postoperative pain is gradually being perceived as a social issue as opposed to a personal health condition. Meanwhile, although efforts to address chronic pain with integrative medicine are continued in answer to the lack of success of pain management through surgery, there is still a lack of supporting evidence.

The objective of this survey study is to assess the characteristics, usage of conventional and Korean medical services, and prognosis by period before and after surgery in postoperative patients visiting a Korean medicine hospital, and analyze the associations between the preference for conventional and Korean medicine treatment. This study therefore investigates the usage of conventional and Korean medical services in postoperative patients, and is expected to provide information that will potentially aid patient decision making.
