Brief Summary
|
This study will be conducted after obtaining permission from IEC and will be registered in CTRI. This study is randomized, parallel group, active controlled trial comparing the safety and efficacy of Nimbatwak ointment for topical application on clean wounds. Patient will be selected as per Inclusion / Exclusion criteria. Patient will be observed and if patient is not following the treatment protocol or not willing to continue treatment can be considered as a drop out.Ayurveda is acknowledged as a complementary and alternative medical system that needs to be modernized and incorporate scientific methods for drug production, administration, and care of patients. Research into the phenomena of Vranaropana can make a substantial contribution to the problem of clean wound healing. Promising results have been observed in previous studies. |
