Syllabus

Bachelor of
Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery (BHMS) is a five-year undergraduate course
that provides training in Homeopathy.

Given below is the Syllabus
for B.H.M.S. (Direct
Degree) Course according to
the HOMOEOPATHY (DEGREE COURSE) B.H.M.S. REGULATIONS, 1983 (As Amended up to
June 2005).

INTRODUCTION

The basic objective
of education and training in a Homoeopathic institution is to prepare a competent Homoeopathic Physician who is capable of functioning independently and effectively under
Rural and Urban setups.

In order to achieve
this, the following
syllabus and curriculum have been designed:-

A.
Sound
Foundation:-

To function
effectively as a Homoeopathic physician
a thorough grasp of medical
concepts is imperative. For this, the educational process shall be perceived as an integrated evolving process and not
merely as an acquisition of a large number of
disjointed facts.

A
student shall have to pass through a Training procedure that encompasses the above well, right from Ist BHMS to IV BHMS
and also during the internship period.

He shall undergo an education process wherein
learning of Facts and Concepts right from 1st
Year is in continuity, in an evolutionary
& progressive pattern. In 1st BHMS, students shall study the fundamental principles of
Homoeopathy and will also learn more of applied
anatomy than a multitude
of minor anatomical details.

In
IInd BHMS, a student shall be exposed to very vital concepts of susceptibility and symptomatology with Analysis-Evaluation and details of the Homoeopathic concepts, old logic of Homoeopathy. These will attain much
deeper significance (if care is taken
by teachers of pathology and Organon-Philosophy) when the current knowledge of INFLAMMATION, IMMUNITY, is
correlated well with concepts of susceptibility.

In IIIrd BHMS, there is an opportunity
to fortify the foundation at the best by correlating the Theory of Chronic
Diseases and the Pathophysiological facts on Gynecology, Surgery, and Medicine.
A student shall have to be taught the spectrums
of various diseases in correlation with the spectrum of miasmatic
manifestations. He will then be able to use a well-concluded EVALUATION ORDER OF Characteristics to derive an Operationally valid reportorial Totality.

The knowledge
gathered in this pattern will keep him constantly aware of his objectives
and his role as a Homoeopathic Physician. The integration will eliminate the state of confusion. The Therapeutics
Actions then will be right and complete, utilizing
the full repertories of the Medicinal and Non-medicinal measures, keeping him up-to-date about all fresh scientific developments and inculcating values of continuous Medical Education.

B.
Execution:-

Maximum
emphasis shall be placed on the applied aspects of all the subjects. Thus teachings
of Anatomy, Physiology, and Biochemistry will demand greater
emphasis on applied aspects of these
sciences. The teaching of Pathology will demand a sharp focus on general Pathology, while Regional Pathology will come up as
an application. It shall require
correlation with Medicine, Surgery, and Gynecology. All these need to be studied
from a Homoeopathic perspective, hence the emphasis on the applied aspect of Organon Philosophy & Homoeopathic
Therapeutics representing application to all
other subjects.

C.
Inter-Departmental Co-ordination:-

Essentially,
the entire approach becomes an integrated approach. All departments shall develop
a cohesive well defined program
that demands marked inter-departmental coordination.

It is therefore desirable
to have teaching programs wherein,
by rotation, each department
participates in the teaching coordinating well with the other faculties with constant updating and evaluation. The
coordination has to be in the way given in
the text under each subject inside these Regulations. This will ensure
fundamental and exceptional clarity.

D.
Deductive-Inductive Teaching:-

While teaching, there shall be balance in
designing deductive and inductive processes in
mind. There shall be less emphasis on didactic lectures. A major portion of the time of the
students shall be devoted to demonstrations, group discussions, seminars, and clinics.
Every attempt shall be made to encourage students to participate in all these
to develop their personality,
character, and expressions and to ensure their grasp of concepts rapidly.

E.
Patient-Oriented
Teachings:-

In
order to impart integrated medical education the PATIENT has to be in the
Centre right from day one of the IInd BHMS.

The importance of social factors in relation to
the problem of health and disease shall receive
proper emphasis throughout the course and to achieve this objective, the educational process
shall be community as well as hospital-based.

Based
on the above concepts the course of studies, as laid down in these Regulations, will help to fulfill these needs. While doing so, the need of the hour, past experience in learning
and teaching is taken into
consideration.

ORGANON OF MEDICINE
AND PRINCIPLES OF HOMOEOPATHIC PHILOSOPHY &PSYCHOLOGY FIRST
B.H.M.S

INTRODUCTION TO THE SCIENCE OF HOMOEOPATHY

Organon-Philosophy
is a vital subject that builds up the conceptual base for the Physician. It illustrates those principles which when
applied in practice enable the Physician to obtain results, that he can explain rationally and repeats in
practice with greater competence. The Focus of Education and Training should be to build up the
conceptual base.

Homoeopathy should be introduced as a Complete Rational System of Medicine with its Holistic, Individualistic,
and Dynamistic approach to life, Health, Disease, Remedy, and cure.

In
order to achieve this, the study of logic, psychology, and the fundamentals of Homoeopathic Science
become quite important.

It
is imperative to have a clear grasp of Inductive-Deductive Logic, and its
application and to comprehend the
fundamentals of Homoeopathic Science. The homeopathic approach for the patients
is a Holistic approach. Science
demands the Homoeopathic Physician, to comprehend his
patient as a PERSON, his dispositional state of Mind (and Body), along with the disease process with its causes. Since
we lay great emphasis on knowing the mind, knowledge of psychology becomes imperative for a Homoeopathic Physician. This introduction to
Psychology will assist Homoeopathic students to build up their conceptual base in their
direction.

I.
Fundamental of Homoeopathic Science.

Preliminary lectures on the evolution of medicinal practice
by the ancients gave stress
to rationalistic and vitalistic thoughts.

A short history
of Hahnemann’s life and contributions.Brief life and
contributions of early pioneers after
Hahnemann.Brief study
of the early history of spread of homoeopathy & position of Homoeopathy in various countries.Hahnemann’s
Organon of Medicine from aphorism
1 to 70.Fundamental Principles of Homoeopathy.Health: Hahnemann’s and modern concept.Introductory lectures
on diseases, their classification, drug diseases, case taking and drug proving.

II.
Logic

The
term ‘Logic’ means ‘though’ ‘reason’ ‘Law’ and is used to denote the totality
of rules to which the process of
thought is subjected, a process that reflects the reality. It is also used to denote the science
of the rules of reasoning and the
forms in which it occurs.

As
discussed earlier, to comprehend ORGANON-PHILOSOPHY, it is essential to
acquaint with an understanding of
LOGIC in order to grasp inductive-deductive reasoning.

III.
Introduction to Psychology.

Definition of Psychology – as a Science and its differences from
other Sciences. Concept of Mind –
Contemporary schools of psychology with special reference to Behaviouristic and psychoanalytic approaches.The scientific study of behaviour, intelligence, cause–effect relation
– behaviouristic (Pavlov, Watson, Skinner) and dynamics of behaviour (Freud and Neo Freudians).Basic concepts
of sensation, perception, illusion, Hallucination, Delusion,
Image, Intelligence, aptitude, attention, thinking and memory.Emotion, motivation, personality, anxiety, conflict,
frustration, psychomatic manifestations and dreams.Developmental psychology – normal developments since birth to maturity (both
physical and psychological) and deviations – its
effects on later behaviour.

*The attempt should be made to make a student receptive
to various terms in the teachings of Materia Medica and Homoeopathic Philosophy.

II. B.H.M.S.

– IN THREE SECTIONS-

Section 1

Hahnemann’s
Organon of Medicine Aphorism: 1 to 145

The purpose
of Homoeopathic case taking is not merely the collection of symptoms but comprehending
the PERSON IN WIDER DIMENSIONS with the
correct appreciation of the factors
responsible for the genesis and maintenance of illness i.e. Fundamental
Cause, PREDISPOSING CAUSE,
MAINTAINING CAUSE & ONE SIDED DISEASES.

There should be compulsory case taking term for each student wherein
he learns to ‘build up PORTRAIT of the disease
by undertaking:-

Evolutionary study of the patient comprising of well-defined
characteristics.Studying individual in His life-span
and in relation to his family environment and work.Processing of the interview
and the entire case so as to grasp the principles of MANAGEMENT of these patients.

He
should be taught to classify various symptoms which he has elicited in his case-taking. He puts down his evaluation
of those characteristics. His capacity for analysis and synthesis should evolve. In the appendix, the Analytical
paper for symptom classification and Evaluation is attached. If practised properly, has the potential to improve the analytical faculty of the student.

Physicians,
Teaching Staff, R.M.O. and House Staff shall spend enough time with the students and interns and scrutiny of their written
cases, discuss the mode of interview and process the case.

There
should be standardization in imparting training in ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION. Each Institute shall
keep the standard guidelines of Case – taking.

GUIDELINES ANALYSIS –EVALUATION OF OBJECTIVES OF ANALYSIS EVALUATION OF SYMPTOMS

To individualize
the case so as to prepare an effective totality which allows us to arrive at the Similimum, prognosis the
case, and advise management and impose necessary restrictions on the mode of life and diet.To infer about
state susceptibility by appreciating the quality of characteristics state of susceptibility and diagnosis
of miasmatic state would allow physicians to formulate a comprehensive plan
of treatment.Order of evaluation
of the characteristics, of the case would become a stepping stone for the reportorial
totality.

CLASSIFICATION OF SYMPTOMS: Their scopes and limitations in
arriving as a totality.

Symptoms
should not be considered superficially at its face value. It should be analyzed
and evaluated by taking into account the following factors.

Through a grasp
of the underlying dynamics. (Psychological, Physiological, Pathological aspects).This would demand
thorough comprehension of the evolution of DISEASE, taking into account
FUNDAMENTAL, EXCITING & MAINTAINING CAUSES.Knowledge of socio-cultural background is quite imperative for correct analysis
and evaluation. Details
regarding SYMPTOMATOLOGY can be comprehended by referring to the
classical books in philosophy.

The
Department of Organon & Philosophy while training in Case Taking shall
coordinate with various other
departments where student is sent for pre-clinical and clinical training. This would ensure not only streamlining of the clinical
Centres but also cultivate Homoeopathic perspective when student is attending other
special clinics.

EVALUATION-EXAMINATION

Students’ performance shall be evaluated periodically. There shall
be periodical card tests and internal
(theory and practical) examinations in each academic year. The concerned teaching staff shall file
his general report on the conduct of internal
examinations and also on student’s
performance, which shall be
discussed in departmental and
interdepartmental meetings.Each student appearing for II and III BHMS shall maintain one
journal comprising of 20 cases (10
short and 10 long cases) with complete processing of the case material
for each examination, which shall be evaluated by the head of the department.There shall be provisions for the internal assessment of all these
examinations and journal work in
the Final II and III BHMS
examinations respectively.

III. BHMS

When a student
enters the third year, he has already grasped the basic Sciences of Anatomy, Physiology, and Pathology and has been
introduced to Clinical Medicine, Surgery, Gynaecology, and Obstetrics.

Organon
including Philosophy is the subject that builds up the conceptual base for the physician. It illustrates those principles
which when applied in practice enable physician to obtain results which he can explain rationally and repeats them
in practice with greater competence.
Focus of the Education & Training should be to build up this conceptual
base. This can be delivered
effectively if there is proper integration of various disciplines, various knowledge
throughout the subject of ORGANON-PHILOSOPHY.

(I)
HAHNEMANN’S THEORY
OF CHRONIC DISEASE

Proper
emphasis should be made on the way in which each miasmatic phase evolves and
the characteristic expressions which are thrown off at various level. This will bring out the characteristic
PATTERN of each miasm. A definite attempt should be made to understand the theory of CHRONIC MIASM in the light of
our knowledge of basic sciences of ANATOMY,
PHYSIOLOGY, PATHOLOGY & MEDICINE. This would demand CO-RELATION OF

HOMOEOPATHIC PHILOSOPHY with allied sciences.

Teachers should bring out clearly therapeutic implications of the THEORY OF CHRONIC
MIASM in practice. This will demand comprehension of the EVOLUTION OF
NATURAL DISEASE from a miasmatic angle.
This will require to be correlated with applied Materia Medica. Here you demonstrate how various drugs would come up in
Psoric, Sycotic and Syphilitic state of the clinical
diseases.

Thus ORGANON
& PHILOSOPHY will bring out effectively integration of Anatomy, Physiology Psychology, Pathology, Clinical
Medicine, Materia Medica and Therapeutics. This would demand greater interdepartmental coordination.

(II)
HAHNEMANN’S ORGANON
OF MEDICINE Vth & VIth EDITIONS

(including Aphorism 1 to 294).

Kent’s lectures,
Robert and Stuart’s close works in
Philosophy.POSOLOGY.DIET, ANCILLARY
MODE OF TREATMENT.INTRODUCTION OF REPERTORY.

Students
should maintain a journal of 20 cases wherein thoroughly worked out cases from
their clinic attendance would be there.

Cases should demonstrate the student’s
work on CASE TAKING – CASE ANALYSIS-
EVALUATION-DISEASE, DIAGNOSIS-MIASM-POSOLOGY-REMEDY SELECTION.

IV.
BHMS

Here
the focus is on applied aspect of Organon & Philosophy. Maximum emphasis
shall be given on practice-oriented teaching
of Organon and Philosophy.

This can be effectively achieved
by studying the various cases taken by students in OPD & IPD.

Case analysis,
evaluation and synthesis
takes into account
the application of the entire ORGANON from Aphorism 1 to 294 and all
principles of Philosophy as illustrated in I, II, III BHMS.

More
emphasis to be given on case taking, case analysis, evolution, posology
miasmatic diagnosis, potency
selection and repetition of doses, second prescription, diet, regimen and other pressures with the principle of
management during OPD and IPD visits, so that the students can have the practical
knowledge of the treatment and management of the patient.

The following topics shall
be taught during
IV BHMS in depth:-

History of Medicine.History of Homoeopathy, its spread to different countries.Life and living environment.Concepts of health and factors modifying it.Concept of susceptibility and vital reaction.Concept of disease and totality of symptoms.Concepts of Drug, Medicine
and Remedy.Concept of Cure and Disease and Drug relationship.Scope and limitations of different modes of employing
medicines in disease
Antipathy, Allopathy and Homoeopathy.Various methods
of classification and evaluations of symptoms common and characteristic General and particular.Concepts of incurable
disease, suppression and palliation.Prophylactics.Scope and limitations of Homoeopathy.Remedy response, prognosis after administration of a remedy.Principles and criteria
for repetition and selection of potency.

Paper I – Topics from 1-15

Paper II- Topics from Kent’s lectures, Stuart Close and Roberts Philosophy, Case taking at beside.

APPENDIX

The purpose of Homoeopathic Case taking is not merely collecting the symptoms but comprehending the person in wider dimensions, with correct appreciation of the causes
for the illness.

The
adequacy in Case Taking and Physical examination should be judged from the
following angle:-

To carry out
successful individualization of the case and to conclude about state of the susceptibility.Finding out a simillimum with correct potency
and doses.Prescribing proper diet to the patient.Advising the management of the case.The pathology
and homoeopathic prognosis.

Anatomy and Physiology

Study of Normal Man in
Pre-clinical Period.

Human
economy is the most difficult of all sciences to study. Man is conscious
mentalised, living being and
functions as a whole. Human knowledge has become so vast that for precise comprehension of man as a whole
development of different branches of science like anatomy physiology and psychology was necessary.
But such a division is only an expedient; man
nevertheless remains
indivisible.

Consciousness,
life and its phenomena cannot be explained in terms of cell physiology or of quantum mechanics nor by physiological
concepts which in their turn are based on chemico- physical concepts.

Though
anatomy and physiology are hitherto being taught as entirely different
subjects, a water-tight barrier
should not be erected between them; structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) are but correlated aspects
and the physio-chemical processes are but an external expression of an inexplicable phenomenon which is
life.

So anatomy
and physiology shall
be taught with the
following aims:-

to provide
for the understanding of the morphological, physiological and psychological
principles which determine and influence the organism of the living
body as a functioning unit;to co-relate and
interpret the structural organism and normal physiology of the human body and thus to provide the data on
which to anticipate disturbance of functions;to enable the
student to recognize the anatomical
and physiological basis of the
clinical signs and symptoms of disorders due to injury, disease and mal development;similarly, to give the student to understand the factors involved
in the development of pathological processes and the possible
complications which may arise there from;to give the
student such knowledge on pre clinical subjects as will enable him ultimately to employ competently and rationally all the ordinary
methods of

examination and treatment (including surgery) that may involve such knowledge; and

for enabling the
student to pick out strange, rare and uncommon symptoms from pathognomonic symptoms for individualization of patients
and drugs for the purpose
of applying the law of similar
in Homoeopathic practice.

Anatomy

Instructions
in anatomy shall be so planned as to present a general working knowledge of the structure of the human body. The amount of
detail which he is required to memorize should
be reduced to the minimum. Major emphasis should be laid on functional
anatomy of the living subject rather
than on the static structures of the cadaver, and on general anatomical positions and broad relations of the
viscera, muscles, blood-vessels, nerves and lymphatic. Study of the cadaver is only a mean to this end. Students should
not be burdened with minute anatomical details which have no clinical
significance.

Though
dissection of the entire body is essential for the preparation of the student
for his clinical studies, the burden
of dissection can be reduced and such saving of time can be effected, it considerable reduction of the
amount of topographical details is made and the following points:-

Only such details as have professional of general educational value for the medical student should be presented to him.The purpose
of dissection is not to create technically expert prosecutors but to give the student an understanding of the
body in relation to its function, and the dissection
should be designed to achieve this end, for example, ignoring of small and clinically unimportant blood vessels
results in such clearer dissection and a much clearer
picture of the main structures and their natural relationships.Much that is at present taught by dissection could be demonstrated
as usefully through prepared dissected specimens.Normal radiological anatomy may also form part of practical
training. The structure
of the body should be presented linking functional
aspect.Actual dissection should be preceded
by a course of lectures on the general
structure of the organ or the system under discussion and then its
function. In this way anatomical and
physiological knowledge can be presented to students in an integrated form and the instruction of the whole course of anatomy and physiology made more interesting, lively and practical.A good part of
the theoretical lectures on anatomy can be transferred to tutorial classes
with demonstrations.

A
few lectures or demonstrations on the clinical and applied anatomy should be
arranged in the later part of the
course. They should preferably be given by a clinician and should aim at demonstrating the anatomical basis of
physical signs and the value of anatomical knowledge to the clinician.

Seminars and group discussions to be arranged
periodically with a view or presenting different
subjects in an integrated manner.

Formal class room lectures to be
reduced but demonstrations and tutorials to be increased. There should be joint teaching-cum demonstration sessions with clinical
materials illustrating applied
aspect of Anatomy
in relation to clinical subjects.
This should be arranged once a fortnight and even form part of
series of introductory lectures if be needed.

There
should be joint seminars with the departments of Physiology and Bio-chemistry
and should be organized once a month.
There shall be a close correlation in the teaching of gross Anatomy,
Histology, Embryology and Genetics. The teaching of areas and systems in Anatomy, Physiology including Bio-chemistry shall be
integrated as far as possible.

THEORETICAL

A complete course of human anatomy with general working
knowledge of different
anatomical parts of the body. Emphasis
should be laid down on the general anatomical positions and broad relations
of the viscera, muscles, blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic,
Candidates should not be burdened with minute anatomical details of every description
which has no clinical significance.

Candidates
will be required to recognize anatomical specimen and to identify and answer questions on structures displayed in
recent dissections, to be familiar with the bones and their articulations including the vertebrae, the
skull and with the manner of classification of the long bones.

Emphasis will not be laid on minute details
except in so far as is necessary
to the understanding or in their application to medicine and surgery.
Candidates are expected to know the
attachments of muscles sufficiently to understand their action, but not be
precise- details of the origin and
insertion of every muscle. A knowledge of the minor details of the bones of the hand, foot, their
articulations and details of the small bones of the skull will not be required.

The curriculum of Anatomy should
be divided under
the following headings:-

Gross Anatomy-to be dealt under the following categories:-Introductory lectures
with demonstrations.Systematic series.

The study to be covered by deductive lectures,
lecture, demonstrations, surface
and radiological anatomy,
by dissection of the cadaver
and study of dissected specimen.
Knowledge thus obtained together with co-relation of facts should be
integrated into living anatomy.
Details of topographical relation should be stressed for these parts which are
of importance in general practice.

Superior extremity, inferior extremity, head, neck, thorax,
abdomen and pelvis to be studied regionally and system by system (special
reference to be made to development and its anomalies, regional, innervations, functional groups of muscles
in relation to joints of otherwise and Applied Anatomy).Endocrine organs
with special reference to development and
applied anatomy.Development anatomy –
General principles of development and
growth and the effect of hereditary and environment
factors to be given by lectures, charts, models and slides.Neuro-anatomy,

PHYSIOLOGY INCLUDING BIOCHEMISTRY

The purpose of a course in physiology is to teach the functions,
processes and inter-relationship of the different
organs and systems of the normal disturbance in disease and to equip the
student with normal standards of reference for use while diagnosing and treating deviations from the normal.
To a Homoeopath the human organism is an integrated whole of body
life and mind; and though life includes
all the chemico-physical processes it transcends them. There can be no symptoms
of disease without vital force
animating the human organism and it is primarily the vital force which is
deranged in disease. Physiology shall be taught from the stand point of description physical processes underlying them in health.

There
should be close co-operation between the various departments while teaching the
different systems. There should be
joint courses between the two
departments of anatomy and physiology
so that there is maximum
co-ordination in the teaching
of these subjects.

Seminars
should be arranged periodically and lecturers of anatomy, physiology and
bio-chemistry should bring home the point
to the students that the integrated approach is more meaningful.

HOMOEOPATHIC MATERIA
MEDICA

Homoeopathic
Materia Medica is differently constructed as compared to other Materia Medica. Homoeopathy considered that study of the action of drugs on individual parts or systems of the body or on animal or their isolated organs is
only a partial study of life processes under such action and that it does not lead us to a full appreciation
of the action of the medicinal agent; the drug agent as a whole is lost
sight of.Essential and
complete knowledge of the drug action as a whole can be supplied only by qualitative synoptic drug experiments on healthy persons and this alone can make it possible to view all the scattered data in relation to the
psychosomatic whole of a person and it is just such a person as a whole
to whom the knowledge of drug
action is to be applied.

The Homoeopathic Materia Medica consists
of a schematic arrangement of symptoms produced by each drug, incorporating no
theories for explanations about their interpretation or inter- relationship. Each drug should be studied
synthetically, analytically and comparatively, and this alone would enable a Homoeopathic student to
study each drug individually and as a whole and help him to be a good prescriber.

Polychrests and
the most commonly indicated drugs for every day ailments should be taken up first so that in the clinical classes
or outdoor duties the students
become familiar with their applications. They should be thoroughly dealt with explaining all comparisons and relationship. Students should be conversant
with their sphere or action and
family relationship.

The less common and rare drugs should be taught in outline, emphasizing only their most salient features and symptoms. Rare drugs
should be dealt with later.

Tutorials must be
introduced so that students in small numbers can be in close touch with teachers and can be helped to study and
understand Materia Medica in relation to its application in the treatment
of the sick.While teaching
therapeutics an attempt should be made to recall the Materia Medica so that indications for drugs in a clinical
condition can directly flow out from the proving of the drugs concerned. The student should be
encouraged to apply the resources of the vast Materia Medica in any sickness and not limit himself to memorize
a few drugs for a particular disease. This Hahnemannian approach will not only help him in understanding the proper
perspective of symptoms as applied and their
curative value in sickness but will even lighten his burden as far as formal
examination are concerned. Otherwise
the present trend produces the allopathic approach to treatment of diseases and
it contradictory to the
teaching of Organon.

Application of Materia Medica
should be demonstrated from cases in the outdoor and hospital wards. Lectures
on comparative Materia
Medica and therapeutics as well as tutorials should
be as far as possible be integrated with lectures on clinical medicine in the
various departments.

For the teaching
of drugs the college should keep herbarium sheets and other specimens for demonstrations to the students. Lectures
should be made interesting and slides of plants and materials may be projected.

Introductory lectures:
Teaching of the Homoeopathic Materia
Medica should include:-Nature and scope of Homoeopathic Materia
Medica.Sources of Homoeopathic Materia
Medica.Different ways of studying
the Materia Medica.

The drugs are to be taught under the following heads:-Common name, natural,
order, habitat, part used, preparation.Sources of drug proving.Symptomatology of the drug emphasizing the characteristic symptoms
and modalities.Comparative study of drugs.Complimentary, inimical, antidotal and concomitant remedies.Therapeutic applications (applied Materia
Medica).

A study of 12 issue
remedies according to Schusler’s biochemic system of medicine.

FORENSIC MEDICINE AND TOXICOLOGY

The subject
is of practical importance to the students
of homoeopathic medicine
as homoeopathic physicians are to be employed by Government in areas
where they may have to handle medico-legal cases, and perform autopsies, apart from giving evidence in such
cases. The training in forensic medicine at present conducted is inadequate to meet
these needs.

The course consist of a series
of lectures and demonstrations including

1.
Legal Procedure:

Definition of medical Jurisprudence. Courts, and their
Jurisdiction.

2.
Medical ethics:

Law
relating to medical registration and Medical relation between practitioners and
the State. The Homoeopathy Central Council
Act, 1973 and the Code of Ethics under it, the practitioners and the patients,
Malpractices covering professional secrecy, the practitioner and the various legislations (Acts) Provincial
and Union such as Workman’s compensation Act,
Public Health Act, Injuries Act, Child Marriage
Registration Act, Brostal
Schools Act, Medical
Termination of Pregnancy
Act. Lunacy Act, Indian Evidence
Act etc.

3.
Forensic Medicine:

Examination
and identification of person living and dead: parts, bones, stains, etc.
health, Medicolegal: putrefaction,
mummification, saponification, forms of death, causes, agencies, onset etc. Assaults,
wounds, injuries and death by violence. Asphyxial
death, blood examination, blood stains, seminal
stains: burns, scalds,
lighting stroke etc. Starvation, pregnancy, delivery, abortion,
Infanticide, sexual Crimes, Insanity in relation to the State life and accident
insurance.

Toxicology

A
separate course of lectures dealing poisoning in general, the symptoms and
treatments of various poisons,
post-mortem appearance and test should be given, study of the following poisons:-

Mineral Acid, corrosive, sublimate, arsenic and its compound alcohol,
opium and its alkaloids,
carbolic acid, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide. Kerosene oil, cannabis indica, cocaine, Belladonna, strychnine and nux
vomica, aconite, oleander, snake poisoning, prussic acid, lead.

4.
Medico legal post-mortem:

Recording post-mortem appearance, forwarding materials
to chemical examiner:
Interpretation of laboratory and chemical examiner’s findings. Students
who are attending a course of lecture
in forensic medicine should avail themselves of all possible opportunities of attending medico-legal post-mortems
conducted by the professors of forensic medicine. It is expected that each
student should attend at least 10 post-mortems.

5.

PRACTICE OF MEDICINE

Homoeopathy
has a distinct approach to the concept of Disease. It recognizes an ailing individual by studying him as a whole
rather than in terms of sick parts. It emphasizes the study of the Man from his
State of Health, till it travels to state of presenting illness, incorporating all major events and contributing factors in the
process.

The
individualization study as above needs following background so that the
striking aspects which are
characteristic to the individual become clear, In
contrast to the common picture of the respective Health disturbances:

Primary
correlation of the Health disturbances with basics of Anatomy – Physiology- Biochemistry.Knowledge of common evolution
of study about its causation, manifestations, maintenance
and prognosis details.Knowledge about
factors which will worsen and improve the disturbance, including various medicines and non-medical measures
and respective possible response elucidation by application of measures.

The study
obviously emphasizes more on:

Comprehension of Applied part.Sound clinical training
at bedside to be able to apply the learning
accurately.

These can lead towards
developing a Homoeopathic Physician who will not be deficient at the
practical Science of Medicine. He should be trained in a manner in which he is
not locked up in Rare syndromes
as Theoretical Exercise.
Exercises but as a sound clinician with adequate
discrimination, sharp observation and conceptual clarity. He will then be able
to mould an effective appreciation of the patients
picture utilizing his knowledge of Medicine.

To
evolve the above, following distribution of Theory and Practical Training in suggested
so that there is gradual but clear and firm comprehension.

Course of Study – 3 years

i.e.
in II (Second) BHMS in III (Third)
BHMS and in IV (Fourth)

Examination
to be conducted at the end of the IV (Fourth) BHMS. Also in the side of the topics are suggested co-ordinations (with
other department) which will improve the caliber of imparting training in Medicine. The distribution is made
keeping in mind about other subjects in II, III and IV BHMS and the respective state of learning
of student.

GENERAL GUIDANCE:
THERAPEUTICS

Homoeopathy
has a distinct approach to disease. Concept of individualization and concept of chronic
miasm makes it distinct.

It
recognizes an ailing individual by studying him as a whole rather than in terms
of sick parts. It emphasizes that study of man from the state of Health i.e. DISPOSITION DIATHESIS DISEASE,
taking into account all predisposing and precipitating factors i.e. FUNDAMENTAL CAUSE,
MAINTAINING CAUSE & EXCITING CAUSE.

Hahnemann’s
theory of chronic miasm provides us an evolutionary understanding of the
chronic disease:
PSORA-SYCOSIS-SYPHILIS & acute manifestations of Chronic Disease, Evolution
of the natural disease shall be
comprehended in the light of theory or chronic miasm. How our current
knowledge of Pathology
and clinical medicine
assist in defining
this must be demonstrated.

Study
of therapeutics does not mean simply list of specifics. For the clinical
condition, but teaching of applied
Materia Medica. Here we demonstrate how various drugs would come up in psoric, sycotic, tubercular or syphilitic
state of the clinical conditions. Thus emphasis would be in correlating pace of evolution of disease, peculiar, respectively and cluster of characteristics.

Thus
teaching of therapeutics of Hypertension would demand delineation of various
phases of hypertension taking into
account what is happening to the STRUCTURE and what kind of forms are thrown off. Psoric phase would be
characterized by LABILE hypertension which shoots up under stress especially with rise in systolic and manifesting flushes
and emotional disturbances.

This
would draw our attention to drugs like GELSEMIUM, GLONINE, FERRUM MET etc. This is the functional phase. Tubercular hypertension would be
characterized by fairly high systolic and diastolic B.P. oscillating wildly at
higher range, manifesting bleeding like epistaxis etc. with erratic
mental state. This will draw attention to PHOSPHORUS, LACHESIS etc.

Syphilitic
dimension would be characterized by immense destructive damage at target organs
like heart, kidney and retina.

Thus teachings of THERAPEUTICS would essentially demand an effective correlation of:

Knowledge of clinical/medicine/SurgeryAppreciation of Natural disease its evolution
in the light of Theory
of chronic miasm. Thus correlation with Organon
Philosophy.Applied Materia
Medica and Repertory:

Comprehending drug picture from the evolutionary angle- Boger’s approach
towards Materia Medica
and its application for the study of various
clinical patterns of Natural
disease.

PAPER III: Homoeopathic Therapeutic

SURGERY

Homoeopathy as a Science need clear application on part of the physician
to decide about the best
course actions required to
restore the sick to health.

Knowledge about surgical Disorders
is required to be grasped will so that the Homoeopathic Physician is able to:-

Diagnose common surgical cases.Institute homoeopathic medical treatment wherever
possible.Organise Pre and Post-operative Homoeopathic medicinal care as total/partial responsibility.

And

Organize a complete Homoeopathic care for restoring
the susceptibility of the patient
to normally.

The conceptual clarity and Database needed
for above is possible only by an effective co- ordination of the care of the patients.

The study shall include training
on :

Knowledge of causation, manifestation, maintenance and prognosis
of Health Disorders related to Surgery with stress on miasmatic evolution.Bedside clinical
procedures.Correlation of applied aspects,
with factors which can modify
the course of illness, including medicinal and non-medicinal
measures.

The
above can assist a Homoeopathic Physician who will be a Rational Physician not
one locked up in whirlpools of rare
conditions but one who can apply all the basics for an ailing individual.

It will also facilitate him for individualization of the patient,
necessary for final
Homoeopathic management.

The study will start in II (Second) BHMS and complete in III
(Third) BHMS. Examination will be
conducted in III (Third)
BHMS.

Following is a plan to achieve the above, it takes into account about the II (Second)
and III (Third) year BHMS syllabus and respective stage of development.

Some points are made co-ordinating with other departments (for a better training in Surgery, ultimately).

That the SURGERY as a subject
will include:-

COMMUNITY MEDICINE

(including Health Education and Family Medicine)

Instructions
in this course should be given in the Fourth year of medical studies by
lectures, demonstrations and field
studies. This subject is of utmost importance, and throughout the period of medical studies the attention of
the student should be directed to the importance of preventive medicine and the measures
for the promotion of positive health.

His function
is not limited merely to prescribing homoeopathic medicines for curative
purposes but he has a wider role to play, in the community. He has to be
well conversant with the national
health problems both or rural as well as urban areas, so that he can be
assigned responsibilities to play as
effective role not only in the filed of curative but also of preventive and social
medicine including family
planning.

REPERTORY IV BHMS

Repertorization
is not the end but means to arrive to the simillimum together with Materia Medica based on sound principles of Philosophy. Homoeopathic Materia Medica is an encyclopedia of Symptoms. No mind can
memorize all the symptoms or all the drugs with their characteristic gradation. The repertory is an index and
catalogue of the symptoms of the Materia
Medica, nearly arranged in a practical form and also indicating the relative
gradation of drugs, and it greatly
facilitates quick selection of indicated remedy. It is impossible to practice Homoeopathy without the aid of repertories.

Each repertory
has been compiled
on distinct philosophical base, which determines its structure. In order to exploit full advantage of each repertory
it is important to grasp thoroughly its conceptual base and construction. This will help student to learn scope, limitations and adaptability of the repertory.

Case taking:

Difficulties of taking a chronic
case. Recording of cases and usefulness of record keeping. Totality
of symptoms, prescribing symptoms: uncommon peculiar
and characteristic symptoms. Analysis of the case uncommon
and common symptoms.
Gradation and evaluation of Symptoms. Importance of Mental symptoms. Kind and sources
of general symptoms. Concomitant symptoms.

Teaching of repertorisation should not merely be reduced to rubric hunting
exercises. Patient is not
a bundle of rubrics.

Logic of Repertory, is delivered from Organon of Medicine as such Repertory
should not be taught in isolation. Due emphasis should be made to:-

Learning the language of repertory i.e. meaning of rubrics in correlation with Materia Medica
and clinical experiences.Correlation of Repertory with Therapeutics
and Materia Medica.History and development of repertories till date.Types of repertories.Explanation of terminologies used in various
repertories.Boenninghausen’s
therapeutic pocket book and Boger Boenninghausen’s repertory.Kent’s repertory.Introduction to card repertory.Specific regional
repertories ALLEN’S FEVER, BELL’S DIARHOEA
with their comparison.Brief introduction to puritan group of
repertory as Knerr, Gentry,
Robert in respect
of their Clinic
use.Introduction to Computer Repertorization.

PRACTICAL

Students shall repertories:-

10 acute cases
on Kent.5 chronic
cases on Kent.5 chronic
cases on Boenninghausen.5 chronic
cases on Bogar-Boeinninghausen.5 cases to be cross
checked on computer.

Career Options

A Homeopathic practitioner can get employment as a medical
officer or doctor with government and private homeopathic centers. Graduates of Homeopathy can also start their own practice. Employment opportunities are
also available in Health centers as professionals or supervisors.

Further, one
can pursue a career in academics after completing post-graduation. Research
& development is another field as a career option to pursue Homeopathy post-doctoral and postgraduate scholars. In addition to this pharmaceutical
industry manufacturing Homeopathic products is open for Homeopathic graduates and post-graduates as a career option.

Interested Homeopathic professionals can also opt for the hospitality industry as health and
wellness experts. Herbal drug cultivation and trade is another prominent area to
explore as huge demand of Homeopathoic drugs is there across the globe. One can
also go for hospital administration and other administrative services after his
graduation.
