The ten ''vyapat adhmana, parikatika, parisraava, hrdayopasarana, anga graham, jeevaadaana, vibhramsha, sthambha, upadrava'' and ''klama'' are explained in a systematic manner. Each ''vyapat'' represent a cluster of signs and symptoms. However, every context begins with explaining the possible causative factors for the happening. On analyzing the various causes told for ''vyapat'', we can see the ''doshic'' status, the general quality of the ''sharira'' and the ''koshtha'', the status of ''agni'', the physiological state of the individual-all plays an important role. The treatments mentioned are also grouped. The physician may not see all the signs and symptoms for each as told in the text, but can infer from some of the presentation. It becomes the responsibility of the intelligent physician to select the appropriate ''karma'' for the treatment of the complication presented. The presentation of ''vyapat'' itself reveals the clinical skill of Charak to observe the minute presentation in the body. Each complication is self-explanatory as mentioned in the text. However, in the present day practice, how much a modern day [[Ayurveda]] physician encounters these complications is an issue to be discussed about. Whether the lack of quality of the ''shodhana'' performed, change in practical standards, problem at all four levels of the ''chatushpada'' could be the cause.(Verse 58-90)

The chapter ends by reinforcing the idea of a knowledgeable physician who knows, where, when, how to apply ''shodhana'' therapy accurately and thus avoid complications.
