Brief Summary  

This is a randomized, open-label, parallel-group clinical trial which aims to evaluate the efficacy of Deepana-Pachana along with Basti Karma and Kutaj Parpati in the management of Vataj Grahani, one of the commonest disorder of Annavaha Srotas as described in classical Ayurvedic texts, symptoms of which closely resembles to that of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). The study will be conducted at the Uttarakhand Ayurved University, Gurukul Campus Haridwar. A total of 30 patients diagnosed with Vataj Grahani will be selected from the OPD and IPD of the Department of Panchakarma and participants will be divided randomly into two groups of 15-15 patients in each group.  Group A will receive Deepana-Pachana with Chitrakadi Vati and Kala Basti with Shampakadi Asthapana and Bilwa Taila Anuvasana, while Group B will be given Kutaj Parpati. The intervention is based on classical Ayurvedic references recommending Basti Chikitsa and Parpati Kalpana for Grahani Roga. Total duration of treatment will be of 21 days for both the groups and follow-up will be after 15 days of completion of treatment. The observation of the patients will be carried out before, during and after completion of treatment. The obtained results will be discussed on the basis of Ayurvedic concepts and modern scientific parameters. The whole research work will be summarized, and the results obtained on the basis of subjective parameters will be analysed statistically and conclusion will be derived.
