3.Characteristics of Pancha Kosha Theory.
4.Classification of Pancha Kosha Theory.
5.States of Pancha Kosha Theory.
(i) introduction:-
Pancha kosha theory can be called the model of human being or the conceptualization of the human being, i.e., analysis of 5 layers.
It teaches us about the mechanism of the body, mind, and spirit, from the gross elements that make up the physical body to the more subtle aspects of the mind and consciousness.
“अन्नं प्राणो मनो बुद्धिर्– आनन्दश्चेति पञ्च ते । कोशास्तैरावृत्तः स्वात्मा, विस्मृत्या संसृतिं व्रजेत्”
(ii) Types of Pancha kosha theory:-
Annamaya kosha.
Pranamaya kosha.
Manomaya kosha.
Vijnamaya kosha.
Anandmaya kosha.
(a) Annamaya kosha:-
It consists of 5 elements which is known as Panch Mahabhutas namely earth, water, fire, wind and space. These five elements join together to form molecules, tissues and organs.
These follow null defined lanes of nature and are controlled by nervous (electrical) and hormones (chemical).
It is the mechanism to bring about movement and action in every cell.
(b) Pranamaya kosha:-
Prana, the vital energy is described here, it is not the material of electromagnetic energy spectrum known to modern sciences.
This Prana is the basic fabric of this universe both inside and out side our body.
A uniform harmonious flow of prana to each cell of the Annamaya kosha keep them alive and healthy.
There are five dimensions of Prana ( Apana, Prana, Udana, Samana, Vyana).
Apana:- The downward force called Apana which is responsible for urination.
Prana:- It is responsible for breathing movements.
Udana:- It is the upward force of the body which is responsible for upward activity like vomiting.
Samana:- It is responsible for proper digestion and balancing.
Vyana:- It is responsible for all activities in the periphery like nerve impulses, blood circulation and cellular activities.
(c) Manomaya kosha:-
It is the aspect of ones personality where the mind carries on its different functions such as memory, perception and ego (Manah, Chittah, Ahamkara).
Manah - is the active part that receives sensation/impressions gathered by the five senses of cognitions/ jnanendriyas (ज्ञानेंद्रिय).
Chittah- the things perceived through the five senses of cognition are stored in the chittah/memory as impressions. Hence chittah is the storehouse of karma and samskaras (impressions).
Ahamkara- is a sense of 'I' ness or the faculty of identity. It claims these impressions as its own and stores them as personal knowledge or identification of ourselves with the outer world, which comes with identifying ourselves with the body – Dehatma Bhava (देहात्मा भाव)(we think we are the body).
(d) Vijnamaya Kosha:-
It is the 4th layer of our reality which is development in human race greatly that differentiate man from animals.
We all have two minds. e.g., when the manomaya kosha said, ' It is a beautiful rose, I want to have it,' you started instructing your hand.
1. Introduction to yoga:- The word Yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root “Yuj” meaning to bind, join, attach, to direct and concentrate one's attention on, to use and apply. It also means union. It is the true union of our will with the will of God.
The system of yoga is so called because it teaches the means by which the j1vatma can be united to, or be in union with the Paramatma, and so secure liberation (moksha).
Yoga has also been described as wisdom in work or skill full living amongst activities, harmony and moderation.
The term “yoga” in the western world often denotes a modern form of Hatha yoga and a posture based physical fitness, stress relief and relaxation technique, consisting largely of asanas.
Yoga is particularly classified into 4 periods of innovation, practice and development:-
a)Pre – classical period.
b)Classical period.
c)Post – classical period.
d)Modern period.
According to classical and modern period, yoga are divided into 12 types:-
1.Hatha yoga. 2.Sivananda Yoga.
3.Vinyasa yoga. 4.Viniyoga.
5.Ashtanga yoga. 6.Kundalini Yoga.
7.Power yoga. 8.Yin Yoga.
9.Bikram Yoga.
10.Jivamukti Yoga.
11.Iyengar yoga.
12.Anusara Yoga.
Types of electrotherapeutic current (unit 6)
1. Types of electrotherapeutic current :- There are three types of current used in electrotherapeutic purpose:-
Direct current.
Alternating current.
Pulsed current/ pulsatile current.
2. Characteristic features of electrotherapeutic current:- Wave Form:-
The shape of the single pulse or cycle phases as they appear on the graph of current (voltage) versus time is called wave form.
Mainly two types of characteristics are used to describe pulsed and alternating current wave forms:-
Descriptive (qualitative) characteristics.
Quantitative Characteristics.
3. Current modulations:- Changes in current characteristics may be sequential, intermittent or variable in nature and are referred to as modulations.
Amplitude modulation:- Variations in peak amplitude of a series of pulses.
4. Burst Current:- A finite series of pulses, a finite interval of alternation current delivered at a specific frequency over a specific time interval.
Burst duration (with interruption).
Inter burst interval (without interruption).
Continuous mode (without interruption).

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

INPATIENT REHABILITATION PROGRAM
BENEFITS OF CR PROGRAM
3. It is the process of restoring patient with heart disease to
optimal functional status keeping in mind the
physiological, psychological, vocational requirements.
The goal is to maintain good cardiovascular function, and
is to maintain good quality of life.
The benefit of good rehabilitation program is that the 3
years survival rate is 95% with those in a program while it
is 64% in nonparticipation.
4. It involves the active participation of patients and family
members.
It is a sequence of medical and rehabilitation protocols
which merge with each other.
It is personalized based on patient’s age and habits.
The patient has to be rehabilitated back to his original
activity, as much as possible.
5. Medical management of diabetes and hypertension.
A dietician prescribes a customized diet; usually a low
protein and high fiber diet.
Patient education, cessation of smoking, medication to
reduce cholesterol and blood thinners.
Psychological components: Any patient who has
undergone a major surgery would naturally need
counseling by a psychologist regarding issues like quality
of life after surgery.
Avoiding risk factors like stress and obesity.
6. Coronary artery disease is one of the leading causes of
death worldwide; survivors of myocardial infarction and
patients with angina pectoris need a good rehabilitation
program.
Patients who undergo surgeries on the valves.
Patients needing percutaneous transluminal coronary
angioplasty(PTCA).
Patients with milder form of MI.
Patients who undergo coronary active bypass
grafting(CABG).
7. Severe MI.
Unstable angina.
Cardiac arrhythmias.
Systolic pressure >220mmHg and diastolic pressure
>110mmHg.
Impaired cognition.
Possible lack of compliance therapy.
9. To understand the exercise physiology one must know
a few terms: -
Total oxygen consumption(VO2 ).
Aerobic capacity.
Cardiac output = heart rate/stroke volume.
10. The rehabilitation program for patient after a cardiac event
like surgery divided into three phases: -
1. Phases one ( Inpatient phase)
2. Phases two ( Immediate out patient period)
3. Phase three ( Intermediate and maintenance periods)
11. Day of surgery: - In ICU the patient would be connected to
lines and monitors and ventilatory support. He would not be
fully consious because of the effects of anaesthesia. The
therapist visits three to four times during day and gives relaxed
diaphragmatic breathing and gentle toe and ankle movements.
Day 1: - As the patient is weaned off the ventilator, the
therapist gives assisted coughing in sitting and active exercises
to the upper limb within the pain free range, in addition to the
therapy given above. It must be remembered that the operated
site over the sterum can be painful. It can be repeated three to
four times a day depending on patient’s cooperation.
12. Day 2: - Patient’s intravenous lines are removed . Repetition
of the same exercises as previous day.
Day 3: - Patient shifted out of ICU and to ward if he is
declared stable by the attending physician. The previous
exercise are repeated and the patient is made to walk around
the bed under supervision. Sitting in chair with back support is
encouraged.
Day 4: - Shoulder movements are performed within the pain
free range. Walking distance is increased within the ward under
the supervision of physiotherapist.
Day 5 and Day 6: - Stair climbing up to five steps is started
under the supervision of physiotherapist.
Day 7: - The patient is asked to cover the longer distance, with
increase in stride length and cadence.
13. Day 8: - Patient is counseled in the cardiac rehabilitation
department by a team comprising of a psychologist,
physiotherapist, dietician, cardiologist, and a cardiothoracic
surgeon.
Day 9 and Day 10: - Home exercise program is taught and
patient is discharged after suture removal. Ideally by now the
patient should achieved a metabolic equivalent between two
and three for progression to the second phase of rehabilitation.
14. This is an outpatient program which means that the patient
has to be brought to the department following his
discharge until 3 months, thrice a week.
Activities or exercises of intensity (3-4 METs) are given
for 30 to 45 minutes checking vital signs periodically.
A gradual warm up session for 5-10 minutes is given,
followed by static cycling, treadmill walking, and group
therapy for up to half an hour.
Early ambulation is initiated starting in the room and then
corridors of the hospital, starting 1mph and gradually
increasing up to 2.5 mph as tolerated.
15.
16. A cool down program for 5 minutes is also given at the
end of this session, by which stage the patient is expected
to attain 5 METs.
ROM exercise can be gradually increased in intensity with
mild resistance or low weight.
17. A detailed home exercise program is taught which is
followed by the patient at home.
The rehabilitation program should monitor risk factor in
post myocardial infarction (MI) patients like hypertension,
increased serum cholesterol levels, obesity, and coronary
atherosclerosis. Other habits like smoking and excessive
drinking should be avoided.
Graded exercise stress test are given to diagnose,
prognosticate , and asses how the patient respond to
increased physical stress.
18. Improvement in exercise limits.
Reduction in symptoms of angina pectoris in patient, of
heart failure in patients with left ventricular systolic
dysfunction and improvement in clinical measures of
myocardial ischemia.
Improvement in blood lipid levels.
Improvement in psychosocial well being and stress
reduction.
Reduction in mortality.
