Objectives In the later period of Choseon dynasty, korean pediatrics became a pivot part of medicine. SoAUiBang was the most important book in that era. DongEuiBoGam was the most widely read of all oriental medicine books and published in early days of the Choseon dynasty. Therefore, this comparative study on the prescription and formation of SoAUiBang and DongEuiBoGam could be a useful way to understand SoAUiBang's characteristics. Methods This study was based on SoAUiBang and DongEuiBoGam, two literatures of oriental medicine. Results 1. Formation of SoAUiBang had a similar aspect with that of DongEuiBoGam's and enlarged the area of pediatrics by featuring general medical books. However, its formation did not follow the DongEuiBoGam's, but had its unique formation. It tried to include all diseases of pediatrics in the system of DongEuiBoGam. Plus, smallpox and measles belonged to the epidemic diseases were excluded from the area of pediatrics. 2. Comparing SoAUiBang's prescription of some important diseases with DongEuiBoGam's, it was almost a prescription based on DongEuiBoGam's prescription. However, adjustment of herbs and dosages could not be found in any oriental medicine books including DongEuiBoGam. Conclusions SoAUiBang maintained the traditional Oriental medicine based on author's scholarly creativeness. In addition, it also inherited the lineage of medicine in Korea along with the pedigree of DongEuiBoGam. Therefore, SoAUiBang should be re-evaluated as a medicine book that opened a new field of pediatric and had great academic values.

To generalize how early-Chosun medical achievements represented by "Hyang Yak Jib Sung Bang" and "Eui Bang Yoo Chui" influenced the publishment of "Dong Eui Bo Gam", and what academic achievements of "Dong Eui Bo Gam" are, I have compared the compositions of "Dong Eui Bo Gam" to two representative medical literature of early-Chosun era and examined the changes in organizations, and I was able to find deep connections among "Dong Eui Bo Gam", "Hyang Yak Jib Sung Bang" and "Eui Bang Yoo Chui".

許浚(Heo Jun), the best physician on his day, wrote 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam, 1613) based on his clinical experience as a court doctor and life-long study of over 500 medical books. Now most clinicians consult 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) for its practicality. And it is also considered as one of the most valuable medical books for basic medical studies. As 許浚(Heo Jun) mentioned on the 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) preface. we should practice flexibility on the interpretation of the medical classics instead of binding ourselves to the precedents. But worship of 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) may hinder the studying of new pathways. The treatment and its understandings of a disease should be based on objectivity of observation. Finding the common traits of the recipes in 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) is important for the study of 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam). Accordingly, group synthesis of symptoms and resultant classification of recipes are vital. In this research, symptoms listed in the head part(頭門) of External Shape vol. I(外形篇 卷1) of 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) are synthesized into 3 different parts: head-wind syndrome(頭風證), dizziness(眩暈), headache(頭痛). Classification of prescriptions according to these 3 parts is also suggested.

東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) is considered as one of the most valuable medical books for Korean traditional medicine. Since 許浚(Heo Jun), the best physician on his day, wrote 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam), it has been not only a guidebook for basic medical studies, but also a field manual for clinicians. 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) is a medical encyclopedia which integrated more than 81 medial classics. And its contents is well organized according to the symptoms of each disease. So today most clinics refer to 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam). But if we just read 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) and use the prescriptions without understanding, the effect of medicine will be reduced by half. We should totally understand recipes in 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) and be able to change the recipes according to the symptoms of each patient's disease. So finding the common traits of the recipes in 東醫寶鑑(DongEuiBoGam) is very important. In this research, the recipes of the fire part(火門) of Various Disease vol. Ⅲ(雜病篇 卷之三) are analyzed according to the traits of each herb in the recipes. And new classification of prescriptions according to the community of their traits is also suggested.

This study is about researching mechanistic pattern identification of disease for DongEuiBoGam NaeGyungPyen by analysing with pattern identification of modern Traditional Korean medical patholgy as more logical, systematic and standardized theory. Disease pattern mechanisms of uterine, urine and excrements parts of DongEuiBoGam NaeGyun gPyen in NaeGyungPyen of DongEuiBoGam are these. Menstrual irregularities in DongEuiBoGam can be classified flui d-humor depletion, blood deficiency, qi deficiency, qi stagnation, qi stagnation complicated by heat, blood stasis, blood deficiency complicated by heat, syndrome of heat entering blood chamber, syndrome of cold entering blood chamber.

At this paper, I classified ‘tetanus’ in 『DongEuiBoGam』 and studied the concept, causes, symptoms, pathological mechanisms of that disease and then I had a new understanding that concept of tetanus in 『DongEuiBoGam』 is different with concept of tetanus in Western Medicine. In the mean time, I investigated the classification in 「Classification of Korean Standard Cause of Death(Oriental Medicine)」 (1995, The Korean Economic Planning Board), and concluded the concept of tetanus in "DongEuiBoGam".
