Pagina 59 - ... of typhoid fever, for instance, bears to typhoid fever ; ( 5 ) that, by the destruction of this matter on its issue from the body, by means of proper chemicals or otherwise — seconded by good sanitary conditions — there is reason to hope that we may eventually, and possibly at no very distant time, rid ourselves entirely of this fatal scourge.
Pagina 149 - ... Here the antiseptic principle had effected the restoration of a joint, which, on any other known system of treatment, must have been excised. Ordinary contused wounds are, of course, amenable to the same treatment as compound fractures, which are a complicated variety of them. I will content myself with mentioning a single instance of this class of cases. In April last, a volunteer was discharging a rifle when it burst, and blew back the thumb with its metacarpal bone, so that it could be bent...
Pagina 59 - That the tuberculous matter itself is (or includes) the specific morbific matter of the disease, and constitutes the material by which phthisis is propagated from one person to another, and disseminated through society. 4. That the deposits of this matter are, therefore, of the nature of an eruption, and bear the same relation to the disease, phthisis, as the 'yellow matter' of typhoid fever, for instance, bears to typhoid fever.
Pagina 226 - MD, Professor of Obstetrics and the Diseases of Women and Children in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, etc., etc., with two hundred and twenty-five Illustrations.
Pagina 59 - When the South Sea Islands were first discovered phthisis did not exist there. Since the aborigines have come into intimate contact with Europeans, the disease has not only made its appearance among them, but has become so wide-spread as to threaten their extermination. The contrast between original entire immunity and present extreme fatality is very striking, and can only be rationally explained by the importation of a new and specific morbific germ. Try every other supposition, and the facts are...
Pagina 100 - Committee deduce from their investigations are — 1. That as a general rule only clear neutral solutions of drugs should be injected, for such solutions rarely produce local irritation. 2. That whether drugs be injected under the skin, or administered by the mouth or rectum, their chief physiological and therapeutical effects are the same in kind, though varying in degree, but — 3.
Pagina 148 - The material which I have employed, is carbolic or phenic acid, a volatile organic compound which appears to exercise a peculiarly destructive influence upon low forms of life, and hence is the most powerful antiseptic with which we are at present acquainted. The first class of cases to which I applied it, was that of compound fractures in which the effects of decomposition in the injured part, were especially striking and pernicious. The results have been such as to establish conclusively the great...
Pagina 148 - ... overlaps the sound skin for a very considerable distance, and this was inadmissible by the method described above, on account of the extensive sloughing of the surface of the cutis which it would involve. This difficulty has, however, been overcome by employing a paste composed of common whiting (carbonate of lime), mixed with a solution of one part of carbolic acid in four parts of boiled linseed oil so as to form a firm putty. This application contains the acid in too dilute a form to excoriate...
Pagina 248 - ... Three days afterward she was again affected in the same way, the flow ceasing spontaneously. About a week after this, she was taken during the night with a flow, which was so profuse as to result in partial syncope when she endeavored to walk across the room. I saw her early the next morning, found her flowing slightly, and, upon vaginal examination, succeeded in touching the edge of the placenta through the os, which was dilated to the size of a ten-cent piece.
Pagina 149 - ... without a drop of matter, so that if it had been a clean cut, it would have been regarded as a good example of primary union. The small granulating surface soon healed, and at present a linear cicatrix alone tells of the injury he has sustained, while his thumb has all its movements and his hand a fine grasp.
