Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Objective correlations established between Ayurvedic pulse diagnostic parameters (measured via Nadi Tarangini) and biomedical sleep diagnostics, including polysomnography findings and subjective sleep scale scores, in subjects with primary insomnia.Timepoint: Baseline—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Classification patterns derived from Nadi Tarangini readings that distinguish between Ayurvedic clinical entities such as Nidranasha (complete loss of sleep) & Alpa Nidra (reduced sleep). Predominant doshic profiles (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) identified among primary insomnia subjects based on Nadi Tarangini assessments. Statistical correlations between specific doshic dominances & types of sleep disturbances (e.g., delayed sleep onset, fragmented sleep), supporting the development of personalized, dosha-based Ayurvedic treatment protocols for insomnia.
