Seite 196 - If small doses appear to affect these sores but little, larger doses, as half a grain or a grain, should be given several times a day, or even every two hours. I need hardly say that to compass the results described the treatment must be continued several weeks, for it is...
Seite 194 - The sulphides appear to me to possess the property of preventing and arresting suppuration. Thus in inflammation threatening to end in suppuration they reduce the inflammation and avert the formation of pus.
Seite 54 - ... after the administration of mercurials. It would appear, then, that mercury, by increasing the elimination of bile, and lessening the amount of bile and of other products of disintegrated albumen circulating with it in the portal blood, is, after all, a true cholagogue, relieving a loaded liver far more effectually than if it acted merely by stimulating the liver to increased secretion...
Seite 62 - Such a proceeding has very properly been stigmatized as " nothing better than a piece of barbarous empiricism, which causes the infant much pain, and is useless or mischievous in a dozen instances for one in which it affords relief.
Seite 183 - On the morning following the day of her labor, the woman slips into a chair whilst her bed is making. This is repeated once or twice a day until the fourth or fifth day, when she, if so disposed, gets up and dresses herself. No patient quits her bed against her will, yet the force of example is so great that very few care to stay in bed when they see their companions up and about.
Seite 194 - ... a benign wound which quickly heals. The effects of these remedies are equally conspicuous in mammary abscesses, although in rare instances they appear temporarily to increase the pain — a remark which seems sometimes to hold good with respect to boils. But as a rule the pain is speedily mitigated. Singular to say, I have found these remedies of much less...
Seite 132 - Septioemia and pysemia have not ensued in any case in which submersion has been practised from the first day of the accident. Purulent infiltrations and consecutive abscesses have been infrequent, and always limited to the neighborhood of the parts injured, and of small extent. Traumatic fever, usually present after grave accidents, when other plans of treatment have been pursued, as early as the third or fourth day, has seldom been present when this plan has been adopted, and in no case has the...
Seite 254 - The effect on the cough and expectoration is also very marked, these both greatly decreasing in a few days, though the improvement in these "respects is rather slower than in the case of the breathing. Sometimes for the first few days the expectoration is rather increased. It speedily alters in character, so that it is expelled much more readily, and thus the cough becomes easier, even before the expectoration diminishes. Treated in this way the patient is soon enabled to lie down at night with his...
Seite 168 - A very fine curved needle has the two extremities of a very fine waxed silk ligature (or hair, as Celsus directs) passed through its eye. The needle, being firmly grasped by suitable forceps, is then passed through a narrow fold of skin at the very margin of the lid, close to one of the inverted eyelashes. The point of introduction should be external to the point of emergence of the eyelash, but as close to it as possible ; and the needle should be brought out after passing about A"
Seite 55 - ... some way influencing, the disintegration of albumen. The remarkable effect of mercury on constitutional syphilis probably admits of a similar explanation. But in whatever way it is to be explained, the clinical proofs of the efficacy of mercury in certain derangements of the liver are to my mind overwhelming. I say so the more advisedly, because I was taught to regard mercury as a remedy worse than useless, not only in hepatic diseases, but in syphilis ; it cannot, therefore, be said that the...
