APPLIED ASPECT OF TRIVIDHA PRAMANA PARIKSHA IN CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS

According to Ayurveda, health is defined as a state of equilibrium of Dosha, Dhatu, and Mala, along with the proper functioning of Indriya (sense organs), Manas (mind), and Atma (soul). Maintaining this balance and restoring the disturbed Doshas are essential for the prevention and management of diseases. Ayurveda describes several diagnostic methods that helps physicians in identifying different disease conditions. A thorough examination of both the patient and the disease is essential for effective clinical practice. Among these methods, Trividha Pariksha is considered one of the fundamental diagnostic approaches in Ayurveda. Acharya Charaka described Trividha Pariksha in Trividha Roga vishesh Vigyaniya Adhyaya as Aptopadesha, Pratyaksha, and Anumana, while Acharya Vagbhata explained it as Darshana (inspection), Sparshana (palpation), and Prashna (interrogation) in Ayushkamiya Adhyaya. These diagnostic principles provide a systematic approach to understanding the disease and assessing the condition of the patient in clinical practice. In this article there is an effort to assess the Trividha Pramana Pariksha and Rogi Pariksha.
