Abstract
Dhatu sarata is a factor which represents the Bala of Dhatu, patient or person has to be examined with reference to Sara or the excellence of their Dhatu, with a view to determining the specific measurement of strength. They are classified into eight categories, depending upon the Sara or excellence of their Dhatu. Seven of seven Dhatu and eighth one is Satva Sara. Ergography is a procedure by which a graphical record of muscle contractions is obtained and the amount of work done i.e., muscle power is calculated. It was first described by Angelo Mosso and is therefore called Mosso's Ergography. It is also used to study the phenomenon of fatigue in human skeletal muscles. 215 healthy students (Male and Female both), age between 18 to 25 years from Bharati Vidyapeeth Ayurved College, Pune were selected for research. Examination of Dhatu sarata of every student was done with the help of Standard Dhatu Sarata Questionnaire which was prepared by Ayu Soft C-DAC and with the help of Mosso’ sergograph Work done by muscle was calculated. The percentage of Sarata Lakshana of every Dhatu and work done by muscle was compared by Pearson’s correlation test. P value is lesser than 0.05 in Mamsa Dhatu sarata and Asthi Dhatu sarata in both male and female therefore there is significant correlation found between Work done by muscle and Mamsa Sarata and Asthi Sarata.
