Abstract

Background/Objectives: The arches of the feet serve as an adaptive support for the entire body to driveaway the forces of weight bearing and cause less energy consumption during the gait cycle. The arches ofthe feet are a tough, elastic network of ligaments, tendons and fascia between the forefoot and the hind foot.Though the flat feet are usually asymptomatic, but it can alter the biomechanics of the lower extremities andeven the lower spine causing an increased risk of pain and injury. There are various studies who claim theassociation between obesity and flat feet in children’s. To know the association of flatfeet and BMI in otherage group,this study was carried out.Methodology: Observational research with a cross sectional design was carried out at the physiotherapyOPD on 90 subjects which was selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria in the duration of 1 year. Groupwise distribution was done by using purposive sampling. 3 groups were formed accounting their age.Result: There is significant association between gender and Flat foot, where males in age groups 10-18yr and 19-30 yr are more affected. BMI and flatfoot also showed significant association in above 2 agegroups. When the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of average BMI was compared to the flat foot, there wasa significant result in both same groups A. No significant results were found in chi square for associationbetween age and Flatfeet.Conclusion: Present study concludes that there is a association between BMI and Flat Feet in children’sbetween 10-18 years of age and adults between 19-30 years of age.

Abstract

Objective: Tocompare post operativeanalgesic effect of intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine withdexmedetomidine, to bupivacaine with tramadol in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Method: Sixty patients belonging to age group 20 to 50 years, from both sexes posted for laparoscopiccholecystectomy under general anesthesia were enrolled in our study. They were randomized in two groups,Group A and Group B with 30 patients each. ASA1 & ASA2 physical status were selected. A written andinformed consent was taken from all the patients. The group A received 35 ml of 0.25% Bupivacaine with50 mcgdexmedetomidine and Group B received 35 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine with 50 mg tramadol beforeremoval of trocar. The sites selected for instillation were hepato-diaphragmatic space (10ml), sub hepatic(10ml), on gall bladder bed (10ml) and near and above hepatoduodenal ligament (5ml), at the end of surgery.Intraoperative hemodynamic monitoring was done. Postoperative pain relief was assessed hourly for first6 hours by VASscore. Time to requirement of first dose of rescue analgesia was noted and this was theendpoint of this study, although the patients were monitored for 24 hours. Sideeffects like postoperativenausea, vomiting and respiratory depression were noted.Results: We noted that intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine with dexmedetomidine prolonged theduration of post operative analgesia compared to bupivacaine & tramadol combination. The requirementof first dose of rescue analgesic is delayed more inbupivacaine dexmedetomidine group as compared tobupivacaine tramadol group. Also the incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting was found to be lessin group Ai.e. bupivacaine dexmedetomidine group.Conclusion: From this study it can be concluded that the use of intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacainewith dexmedetomidine significantly reduces the requirement of post operative analgesics in patientsundergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with better compliance.

Abstract

The Kriyakala describes the different stages or steps of the evaluative process of disease, ithelps to recognizethe stage (Avastha) of the disease thus help in early diagnosis, easy cure and prevent further complications.All the three Acharya give stress on the need to recognize the disease in its Chayavasta itself and adoptmeasure to interfere the disease Samprapti to abort the subsequent stages. Tamakashwasa is mentioned as aone of the type of Shwasa Roga having Vataand Kapha dominancy in Samprapti. It is considered as YapyaVyadhi (incurable but manageable, persists for a long time) Acute attacks of Tamak Shwasa need urgentmanagement. Otherwise it can prove life threatening also. The chroniciy carries a bad prognosis. Earlydiagnosis with understanding the etiopathogenesis (Samprapti) in all aspect can show excellent prognosisby Ayurvedic medications. So there is need to understand the etiopathogenesis of Tamaka Shwasa w.s.r.Kriyakala.
