Hi,
Yes,this is a relevant question.I think there
should be seperate classification number for all
Indian Systems of medicine,in which each items
can be classified under that number.Definitely,
mapping will not be helpful here.
BTB, do you know that the patent for Ayurveda is
going to Germany now,eventhough it is an Indian
originated system of medicine?

Dear all,
I wish to know if there is a separate classfication on Ayurveda.. DDC gives only one number and that is just not sufficient..or will it be sensible to create a new classification based on Allopathic class numbers after mapping the equivalents? although 100 percent mapping may not be possible.
Regards.
