Cerebral palsy (CP) is the leading cause of childhood disability affecting cognitive function and developments in approximately 1.5 to 3 cases per 1000 live births. Based on Ayurvedic therapeutic principles, CP patients were subjected to Abhyanga (massage) with Moorchita Tila Taila (processed sesame oil) and Svedana (fomentation) with Shastikashali Pinda Sveda (fomentation with bolus of drugs prepared with boiled rice). Study group received Mustadi Rajayapana Basti (enema with herbal decoction) and Baladi Yoga (a poly-herbo-mineral formulation), while the placebo group received Godhuma Vati (tablet prepared with wheat powder) and saline water as enema. Treatment with Mustadi Rajayapana Basti and Baladi Yoga improved the activities of daily life by 8.79%, gross motor functions by 19.76%, and fine motor functions 15.05%, and mental functions like memory retention got improved by 15.43%. The placebo group showed an improvement of 0.21% in daily life activities, 2.8% in gross motor, and 2.4% in fine motor functions. Mustadi Rajayapana Basti and Baladi Yoga proved to be more supportive in improving the motor activities and gross behavioral pattern. Further clinical trials are required to evaluate and validate the maximum effect of the combination therapy in a large sample with repetition of the courses for longer duration.
脑性瘫痪(CP)是导致儿童残疾的主要原因,大约每 1000 例活产中就有 1.5 至 3 例受到影响,涉及认知功能和发育。基于阿育吠陀治疗原则,CP 患者接受了摩里希塔提拉油(经过加工的芝麻油)的阿育梵(按摩)和沙提卡斯利平达斯韦达(用药物丸剂加热敷布进行热敷)。研究组接受了 Mustadi Rajayapana Basti(草药煎剂灌肠)和 Baladi Yoga(一种多草药-矿物配方),而安慰剂组接受了 Godhuma Vati(用小麦粉制成的片剂)和生理盐水灌肠。Mustadi Rajayapana Basti 和 Baladi Yoga 的治疗使日常生活活动能力提高了 8.79%,粗大运动功能提高了 19.76%,精细运动功能提高了 15.05%,记忆力等精神功能提高了 15.43%。安慰剂组在日常生活活动方面的改善为 0.21%,在粗大运动方面的改善为 2.8%,在精细运动方面的改善为 2.4%。Mustadi Rajayapana Basti 和 Baladi Yoga 被证明在改善运动活动和总体行为模式方面更具支持作用。需要进一步的临床试验来评估和验证组合疗法在更大样本中的最大效果,并重复更长时间的疗程。
