Summary

This study aims to investigate the characteristics of Traditional Medicine (TM) syndromes in patients diagnosed with internal hemorrhoids at Le Van Thinh Hospital. Internal hemorrhoids are a common anorectal disorder, and their classification in Traditional Medicine remains inconsistent. The study will examine the prevalence of TM syndromes in patients with internal hemorrhoids and assess the correlation between Goligher's classification and TM diagnoses.

The study will follow a cross-sectional observational design with an estimated 178 participants. Eligible patients are 18 years or older, diagnosed with internal hemorrhoids, and willing to participate. The primary outcomes include the prevalence of TM syndromes in internal hemorrhoids, severity classification according to Goligher's scale, and correlation analysis between TM syndromes and clinical severity.

The study has received approval from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City and will be conducted from December 2024 to April 2025 at Le Van Thinh Hospital, Vietnam.
