ABSTRACT

Sandhigata Vata vis-à-vis osteoarthritis, a common arthritic problem in practice ranging the age mainly between 40-70 years (but may also occurs in early age before 40 years) is more severe and more generalized in obese and older women and men working in the farms. Sandhigata-Vata is briefly described in Ayurvedic texts. In the ideal text of Ayurvedic medicine (the Charaka Sanhita), Charaka has termed the ‘Sandhigat Vata’ as Sandhigat-Anila (Anila=Vata) in ‘Vat-Vyadhi-Chikitsa’ chapter 28 and described as-‘Vata-Purnadritispash’ (soft swelling like air filled bag), ‘Shoth (inflammation, non-suppurative) and ‘Prasarana/Kunchanyoh Pravrattisch Savedna’ (painful joint movements especially of extension and flexion). The present work entitled ‘Globally as of 2010, approximately 250 million people had osteoarthritis of the knee (3.6% of the population). Hip osteoarthritis affects about 0.85% of the population. Together, knee and hip osteoarthritis had a ranking for disability globally of 11th among 291 disease conditions assessed. Radiologically Sandhigat-Vata or OA is characterized by narrow or decreased joint space presence of osteophytes and a variety of deformities. On the basis of patho-physiology, the specific target of therapeutic intervention in Sandhigat-Vata is nearly around Dhatukshay (degeneration) due to Comperative study of Vrihat Panchmoolbala Ksheer Vasti and Mustadi Upnaha in the management of Sandhigat-Vata vis-à-vis osteoarthritis’ aim to undertake a critical literary and conceptual study, detailed demographic and clinical study and a study to evaluate the efficacy of different therapeutic regimen for the treatment of Sandhigata -Vata.
