ABSTRACT
This clinical case reports the effect of Chilgi-tang, a kind of traditional Korean herbal medicine, on 3rd degree AV block patients also known as complete heart block. Complete heart block caused by degeneration of electrical conduction system of heart may result in weakness, dizziness, syncope, etc. Two clinical cases reported herein are diagnosed as 3rd degree AV block caused by psychological stress with chief complaints of syncope and dyspnea respectively. The chief complains of cases cured remarkably after Chilgi-tang medication. In one case, 3rd degree AV block was disappeared. In conclusion, we suggest that Chilgi-tang can be a potential treatment for complete heart block due to psychological stress.
Key words: arrhythmia, 3rd degree atrioventricular block, Chilgi-tang (qiqi-tang)
