PREFACE

A direct degree course is ultimately to be the pattern of uniform homoeopathic education in India, though for various reasons the diploma course and the graded degree course have to be continued for some time.

As the direct degree course is now being introduced wherever possible, a good number of dogree colleges dotted all over the country may soon be expected. As this course will thus in time set the standard of homoeopathic education and practice in India, it is of the utmost importance that the syllabus expected to fulfil this object should be designed accordingly.

An endeavour has therefore been made in the following syllabus to ensure that the requisite type of education is imparted by the degree colleges to their students.

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY

Study of Normal Mail in Preclinlcal Period

Human anatomy is the most difficult of all sciences to study. Man is a 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 corelatcd aspects and the physio-chemical processes are but an external expression of an inexplicable phenomenon which is life.

So anatomy and physiology should be taught with

the (following aims:

(i) to provide for the understanding of fhe mor- phological, physiological and psychological principles which determine and influence the organism of the living body as a functioning unit;

(ii) to correlate and interpret the structural organism and normal physiology of the human body and thus to provide the data on which to anticipate disturbances of functions;

(iii) to enable the student to recognise the anato- mical, physiological and psychological basis of the clinical signs and symptoms of disorders due to injury, discaaC and maldeveloprueat;

(iv) Similarly, to give the student to understand the factors involved in the development of pathological

38 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY [PART III—SEC.4]

processes and the possible complications which may arise therefrom;

(v) to £ive the student such knowledge of 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

(vi) for enabling the student to pick out strange, rare and uncommon symptoms from pathognqmornc symptoms for individualisation of patients and drugs for the purpose of applying the law of similars in homoeopathic practice.

ANATQMY

Instruction in anatomy should 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 memorise should be reduced to the minimum. Major emphasis should be laid on func- tional anatomy of the living subject rather than on the static structures of the cadaver, and on general anatomical positions and broad relations of the yicera, muscles, blood-vessclcs, nerves and lymphatics. Study of the cadaver is only a means to this end. Students should not be burdened with minute anato- mical 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 much saving of time can be effected, if considerable reduction of the amount of topographical details is made and the following points are taken into con- sideration.

1. Only .such details as have professional or general educational value for the medical student should be presented to him.

2. The purpose of dissection is not to create technically expert prosector but to give the student an understaflffing of the l>ody in relation to its function, and the dissection -should be designed to achieve this end; for example, ignoring of small and clinically unimportant blood vessles result* in such cleaner dis- section and a much clearer picture of the main structures and their natural relationships.

3. Much that is at present taught by dissection could be demonstrated as usefully through prepared dissected specimens.

4. Normal radiological anatomy may also form [part of prafl;J;al training. The structure of the body should be presented linking functional aspect.

5. 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 fan 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.

<• 6. 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 of presenting different sub- jects 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 scries of introductory lectures if be needed.

There should be joint seminars with the depart- ments of Physiology and Bio-Chemistry and should be organised once a month. There should be a close corelation in the teaching of gross Anatomy, Histo- logy, Embryology and Genetics. The teaching of areas and systems in Anatomy, Physiology including Bio-chemistry should be integrated as far as possible.

THEORETICAL

A complete course of human anatomy with general working knowledge of different anatomical parts J6t the body. Emphasis should be laid down on the general anatomical positions and broad relations of the viscera, muscles, blood vessel^ nerves and lympha- tics. Candidates should not be burdened with minute anatomical details of every description which has no clinical significance.

Candidates will be required to recognise anato- mical 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 yie manner of ossification of the long boned.

Emphasis will not be laid on minute details except in so far as is necessary to the understanding of or in their application to medicine and surgery. Candi- dates are expected to know the attachments of muscles sufficiently to understand their actions, but not the precise details of origin and insertion of every muscles. 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 :—

I. Gross Anatomy—to be dealt under the following

categories :—

(a) Introductory lectures with demonstrations.

' (b) Systematic scries.

The study to be covered by deductive lectures, lecture, demonstrations, surface and radiological ana- tomy, by dissection of the cadaver and study of

dissected specimen. Knowledge thus obtained toge- ther with corolation of Wets should be integrated into living anatomy. Details of topographical relation should be stressed for these parts which are of importance in general practice.

(i) Superior extremity, inferior extremity, head, neck, throax, abdomen and pelvis to be studied regionally and system by system (special reference to be made to develop- ment and its anomalies, regional, innerva- tion, functional groups of muscles in relation to joints or otherwise and Applied Ana- tomy).

(ii) Endorcrine organs—with special reference

to development and applied anatomy.

PHYSIOLOGY

The purpose of a course in physiology is to leach the lunctions, processes and inter-relationship of the diflerent organs and systems of the normal hunum organism as a necessary introduction to their distur- bance in disease and to equip the student with normal standards of reference for use while diagnosing and treating devictions from the normal. To a homoeopath the human organism is an integrated whole of body, life and mind; though life includes all the chernico- 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 should taught from the stand-point of description of vital phenomena and the chemico-physical processes under- lying 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, physiiogy and bio-chemistry should bring home the point to (he students that Ihc integrated approach is more meaningful. For example, gross and minute structure will be dealt with by the anatomist while the role of subcel- lular particles in metabolic processes and the method to assess them may be explained by the bio-chemist and towards the end the physiologist may dealt in an integrated manner with behaviour of the cell as a unit, co-ordinating the characteristic bio-chemical and structural components sub-servhig specific functions. Students should be encouraged to participate in the seminars and present the practical subjects in an integrated manner.

While teaching therapeutics an attempt should be made to recall the materia medica so that indica- tions for drugs in ,a clinical condition can directly flow out from the provings of the drugs concerned. The student should be encouraged to apply the re- sources of the vast materia medica in any sickness and not limit himself to memorise a few drugs for a particular disease. This Hahnemannian approach will not only help him in understanding the proper pers- pective of symptoms as applied and their curative value in sickness but will even lighten his burden as far as formal examinations are concerned. Otherwise the present trend produces the allopathic approach to treatment of diseases and it contradictory to the teaching of organon,

HOMOEOPATHIC MATERIA MEDICA

Lectures on comparative materia medica and therapeutics as well as tutorials should be as far as possible integrated with lectures on clinical medicine in the various departments.

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

8.CA) Introductory lectures : Tenehing of the Homoeopathic materia medica is differenfly cons- tructed as compared to. other material medicas. Homoeopathy, considers that study of the action of drugs on individual parts or systems of the body or on animals 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.

ORGANON AND PRINCIPLES OF HOMOEO-

PATHIC PHILOSOPHY

I. 11. & III B.H.M.S. EXAMINATIONS

Hahnemann's Organon of medicine is the high water mark of medical philosophy. It is an original contribution in the field of medicine- in a codified form. A study of Organon as well as of the history of homoeopathy and its founder's life story will show that homoeopathy is a product of application of the inductive logical* method of reasoning to the solution of one of The greatest problems of humanity namely the treatment and cure of the sick. A thorough

182 GI/83—7

nquaintp.ncc with the- fundamental principles of logic, both' "dejl-uctive mid "inductive- is therefore essential. The Organon should accordingly be taught in such manner as to make clear to the students the implica- tions of the logical principle by which homoeopathy was worked out and build up and with which a homoeopathic physician has to conduct his daily work with case and facility in treating every concrete individual case.

The practical portions should be thoroughly under- stood and remembered for guidance in pratical work ;is a physician.

PATHOLOGY BACTERIOLOGY AND PARA-

SI TOLOGY

The teaching of pathology and bacteriology has to be done very cautiously and judiciously, while allopathy associates the pathology of tissues and micro-orga- nisms with disease conditions and considers bacteria as conditioned causes of diseases, homoeopathy re- gards disease as purely a dynamic disturbance of the vital force expressed as altered sensations and functions which lrviy or may not ultimate in gross tissue changes. The tissue changes are not therefore an essential part of the disease perse and are not accordingly in homoeo- pathy the object of treatment by medication.

2. Since the discoveries of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch the medical world has come to believe in the simple dogma "kill the germs and cure, the disease". But subsequent experience has revealed that there is nn elusive factor called 'susceptibility' of the patient which is behind infection and actual outbreak of disease. As homoeopathy is mainly concerned with reactions of the human organism M different morbid factors, rnicrobial or otherwise, the role of bacteria or viruses in the production of disease is therefore in homoeopathy quite secondary,

3. Knowldege of bacteriology is nevertheles.i neces- sary for a complete homoeopathic physician; but it is for purposes other than therapeutics such as for diagnosis, prognosis, prevention of" disease and general management. Similarly knowldege of pathology is necessary for disease determination, prognosis, for dis- crimination between symptoms of the patient and symptoms of the disease and for adjusting the dose and potency of indicate homoeopathic remedy.

4. Only^ broad basic training in pathology, free from specialist bias, should however iv imparted to students. Teachers of pathology should never lose sjght of the fact that they are training medical practi- tioners, especially homoeopathic practitioners, and not technicians and specialists in pathology. The living patient, and not the corps, should be the central theme in the teaching of this subject.

5. The purpose of the instruction in pathology is to enable the student to cordate' subjective symptoms with the objective ones to interpret clinical symptoms and their inter-relationship of the basis of mideiying pathology.

SURGERY INCLUDING HOMOEOPATHIC THERAPEUTICS

Where medicine fails surgery begins. Affection of ej-fernal parts requiring, mechanical tkili propeily belong to surgery; but frequently whsn the injury is to extensive or violent as to evoke dynam>c reaction in the organism, dynamic treatment with remedies is necessary.

Surgery removes the end products of disease ; but pro and post operative treatment is essential U correct the basic dyscrasia and prevent sequelae or compli- cations.

A large number of conditions being . amenable to internal medication in homoeopathy, the scop; of the latter is much ¥/ider and that of surgery is to that extent limited. But as a supplement to medicine, surgery has definite place in homoeopathy and shoifK be taught accordingly.

MEDICINE INCLUDING HOMOEOPATHIC THERAl-HUTTCS

Homoeopathy has a distinct approach to disease. It recognises diseases neither by its prominent symp- toms nor by those of uny organ or part of the body. It treats the patient as u whole and the totality of the symptoms exhibited by him represents his disease. Merely the name of the condition from which he suffers most is thus of no significance to a homoeopath.

The basic principles of homoeopathy that it treats the patient aud not his disease should be constantly impressed in the minds of the students, and it is only when this approach is firmly inculcate I in them that they will be true homoeopaths.

Medicine is essentially a practical science and can be more learnt at the bed-side than in a class room. Care should therefore be taken to impart an intensive clinical training to the students during the later part of their study in the college.

A. A course of systematic instructions in the

HOMOEOPATHIC REPERTORY

Homoeopathic materia medica is an r;iicvclopcui;i of .symptoms. No mind can mcmoiiso all the symp- toms, ol all the drug together with their characteristic gradation. The repertory is an indf¹¹, a catalogue of the symptoms of the materia medico, neatly arranged in a practical form, and also indi'-Mtirni thi. relative gradation of drugs, and it greatly fueiliiates quick selection of the indicated remedy. It is impossible to practice homoeopathy without the aid of repertories and the beit repertory is the fullest. Homoeopathic materia medica and repertory are thus like twins.

It is possible to obtain the needed correspondence between drucs and disease conditions in a variety of ways and degrees and there are therefore diflfcrenl types of repertories, each with its own distinctive advantages in finding the similimum.
