Abstract

Acharya Sushruta, our ancient Indian surgeon, describes in Sushruta samhita over 300 various surgical procedures viz. cosmetic, ophthalmic, dental, orthopedic and abdominal operations. Acharya Sushruta has divided the procedures in to three parts: poorva-karma, pradhan karma and paschat karma. Poorva-karma are preparation which are required prior to conduct of main activity, pradhan karma are those which are actually to be done, and paschat karma are those required to prevent any danger of the main action and ensures success. The purpose of the study was to evaluate and elaborate the post operative measures described in Sushruta Samhita. The need of post operative measures is for restoration of patient?s physical as well as mental strength, complexion and digestive power, maintaining the equilibrium of doshas, and management of post operative complications.
