NEED OF STUDY:

                 Current estimate suggest that 300 million people worldwide suffer from Asthma and an additional 100 million may be diagnosed with asthma by 2025. According to WHO, by the year 2020 asthma along with chronic obstruction pulmonary disease will become the third leading cause of death8. With an estimated 1.5-2 crores asthma patients, at least one in every 10 asthma patient globally lives in India. Globally, the economic costs associated with asthma exceed those of TB and HIV/AIDS combined. Asthma is prevalent in all countries, whether they are developed or underdeveloped. In fact, over 80 percent of asthma deaths according to the World Health Organization (WHO), occur in low and lower-middle-income countries9.

 

              Line of treatment adopted in Bronchial Asthma includes the use of inhaler of corticosteroids, leukotriene receptor antagonist, methylxanthines etc. After taking modern drugs patient quality of life still remains compromised10

            As per Ayurvedic classics main line of treatment for Tamaka Shwasa include both Shodhana and Shamana ChikitsaAcharya  Charak has described the Shodhana procedure as

 

                                                            “  à¤¤à¤®à¤•े à¤¤à¥ à¤µà¤¿à¤°à¥‡à¤šà¤¨à¤®à¥ â€œ 11

 

In Shamana Chikitsa the food or drug which is Vata Karaka and Kapha Nashaka or Kapha Karaka and Vata Shamaka  is indicated and in single arm treatment only Vata Shamaka  or Kapha Shamaka Chikitsa is indicated.12

    Variety of treatment modalities including Shamana  and Shodhana have been described in Ayurveda for management of Shwasa Roga.

     Considering these factors this study has been planned to evaluate the efficacy of Virechana Karma and Saptamrita Vati in Tamaka Shwasa.

HYPOTHESIS:

Null Hypothesis [H0]

Saptamrita  Vati and Virechana  Karma are equally effective in Tamaka Shwasa  (Bronchial Asthma).       

Alternate Hypothesis[H1]

Saptamrita Vati and Virechana Karma are not equally effective in Tamaka Shwasa (Bronchial Asthma)

FOLLOW UP-  0,15th and 30th  day.
