Steps to Repertorisation |

Methods & Technoques of RepertorisationFor using a repertory effectively and to derive maximum benefit, one must thoroughly acquaint himself with it . Hence the need for its constant handling and frequent use. Every repertory follows its own philosophy and construction suitable for different types of cases. Methods have been evolved as per the given philosophy underlying each repertory. Hence a case must be handled keeping in mind, first and foremost, the particular philosophy and the construction of each repertory, and not just its method. It is commonly found that many practitioners use just one repertory for working out all cases. Such a practice is not all too desirable. Every case has its own dimension which decides the selection of repertory, and every repertory has its own methods of repertorisation. Dr. B.K.Sarkar in his book Lectures in Homoeopathy ( 1956 ) has described the following methods of working out the cases : 1) Hahnemann and Boenninghausen’s method = where complete symptoms are available. 2) Kent’s method = Where Generals ( mental and physical ) and particulars are available. 3) Third method = Where mental symptoms are lacking. Here one starts with physical generals; next mental symptoms and then particulars. 4) Fourth Method = Where Generals are lacking. Selection of a striking, peculiar as a key symptom, and then medicines are differentiated with the help of other symptoms. 5) Fifth Method = Where the case presents only common symptoms or pathology. Here physician makes use of every means at his command , including
(6) Sixth Method = Technical nosological terms are selected as main headings. The methods described above have their own advantages and disadvantages. |
