Abstract

It is estimated that by 2050 over 900 million people will have disabling hearing loss. In Ayurveda hearing loss is described as Badhirya, which can be treated with Nasya, Karna Poorana, oral administration of Vatahara Ghrita and other Vatashamana procedures. This is a randomized comparative clinical study of 3 groups with 30 patients in each; namely Group-A of Dashamoola Taila Karnapoorana, Group-B of Dashamoola Taila Nasya & Group C of Dashamoola Taila Karnapoorana and Dashamoola Taila Nasya. Dashamoola Ghrita was advised for oral administration to all groups. Total Treatment duration was of 210 days i.e., 7 days (Day 1-7), followed by 48 days administration of Ghrita (Day 22-70) and follow up after 140 days. There was mild improvement in hearing in both ears with slight improvement in pure tone audiometric values. There was clinical improvement seen in all three groups, group C has better results compared to other two groups. Statistically there is significant result within the group and no statistical significance between the groups. Since, combined treatment using Dashamoola Taila Nasya and Karnapoorana and Dashamoola Ghrita orally has shown better results, following complete Chikitsasutra would be helpful in management of Badhirya than treating with single line of treatment.
