Potential implications of a therapeutic polyherbal infusion in Ayurveda as an adjunct to multidisciplinary relaxing techniques in alcohol withdrawal syndrome—an exploratory randomized study protocol
To evaluate the efficacy of a therapeutic herbal infusion (Kharjuradi Mantha) as an adjunct to multidisciplinary relaxation techniques in individuals experiencing mild-to-moderate Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome (AWS).
Key Findings:
Alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) presents significant neuropsychological symptoms during early abstinence.
Current pharmacological management primarily relies on benzodiazepines, which may lead to dependence and hepatic stress.
Ayurvedic treatment focuses on addressing root causes and restoring balance in the body.
Interpretation:
Remove unsupported claims about potential benefits.
Limitations:
The study is limited to male inpatients, which may affect the generalizability of the findings.
The sample size of 38 may limit the statistical power of the results.
Conclusion:
Revise to avoid unsupported claims regarding symptom resolution.
Patients with preoperative vitamin D deficiency had higher postoperative pain scores and opioid use after mastectomy, including more than triple the odds of moderate to severe pain within 24 hours of surgery.
