A conceptual review on krimiroga in ayurveda

Abstract

The Ayurveda combines the Sanskrit words Ayu (life) and Veda (science or knowledge) thus Ayurveda means science of life. Ayurveda is a traditional system of medicine having emergence a thousand year ago. Since that ancient time Ayurvedic Aacharyas were well known by existence of Krimis, and they have mentioned it in their various literatures regarding its Nidana (causes), Sankhya (different number), Naamkarana (terminology), Swarupa (appearance), Lakshana (symptoms), Sthana (finding area) Chikitsa Vyavastha (management), Yoga (Kriminasaka formulation). Even in the modern era Krimi has been considered a life-threating issue as it causes illness in children and adult human beings having numbers of local to systemic manifestations such as Kandu, Kotha, Pidika, Shoola, Agnimandhya, Panduta, Vishthambhi, Balanasa, Lalasarava, Aruchi, Hridyaroga, and Atisara. In this review, an article effort has been made to elaborate the concept of Krimi chronologically from different Ayurvedic treatises and also to detailed the different perspective regarding its management as per traditional system of medicine.

Health service needs in patients receiving hemodialysis therapy: qualitative study

“…Although hemodialysis can help restore the functional ability of the kidneys, hemodialysis can also cause various complications. Some previous research results showed hypoxemia occurred in 10% of kidney failure patients undergoing hemodialysis (Campos et al, 2016;Meyring-Wösten et al, 2016;Palamidas et al, 2014), with a decrease in PaO2 by 10-20 mmHg during hemodialysis (Sonkar et al, 2016). Intradialytic arterial oxygen saturation and low central venous oxygen saturation in hemodialysis patients indicate an imbalance between upper body systemic oxygen supply and demand, which is at risk of increasing mortality (Kooman et al, 2021).…”
