Abstract

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report on the improvement of respiratory function of a fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy patient after receiving Korean medical treatment. Methods : This study was carried out on a 60 year-old male patient who suffered from fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. While we carried out Korean medical treatment, we observed $EtCO_2$ (end-tidal carbon dioxide), Vte (exhaled tidal volume) and PIP (peak inspiratory pressure). Results : $EtCO_2$ count decreased from 34 mmHg to 24 mmHg during the treatment period, and PIP count became stable. Vte count also did not worsen in this study. Conclusions : Based on this study, we concluded that Korean medical treatment could be effective in treating fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy patients with respiratory failure.
