Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Course of Lectures on Medicine to Nurses In these lectures I have sought in some degree to supply this want, avoiding as far as possible the use of technical expressions. My plan has been to start with a short account of the anatomy and physiology of the affected organ, explaining briefly the changes produced in it by the disease; then to describe such symptoms as can be observed by a nurse, pointing out those features in the case which bear upon the patient's chances of recovery; and finally, to give reasons for the various steps in the treatment and nursing. One cannot explain symptoms without some reference to pathology, nor can the latter be understood without the assistance of anatomy and physiology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Clinical Lectures on the Principles and Practice of Medicine IN consequence of the rapid exhaustion of a second edition of this work, I have been called upon to prepare a new one much sooner than I could have anticipated. The whole of it, not withstanding, has been most carefully revised, and the volume extended by the addition of fifty pages, with twenty-one new cases and thirty-four new wood-cuts. I have endeavoured throughout, by reference to indisputable facts, to demonstrate the correctness_ of the principles which have guided my prac tice, and have, i therefore, authenticated every case with the name of its reporter in the hospital books. I have availed myself of numerous illustrations engraved on wood, having long been persuaded that mere description 'of morbid appearances, and especially of those that are made visible by means of the microscope, communicates only feeble or imper feet ideas to others. Of these illustrations, such as are borrowed have the names of their authors appended; such as have no name attached are original.

Medically considered, the chief interest of this research is the remarkable fact that neither Davey nor any of his medical associates or their successors discovered the anesthetic power of nitrous oxide. It was exhibited in probably thousands of cases. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Principles and Practice of Medicine written by John Elliotson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Medicine: Founded on the Most Extensive Experience in Public Hospitals and Private Practice; And Developed in a Course of Lectures Delivered at University College, London The predisposing causes of the disease are, in the first place, a peculiar constitution, and disposition to it. There are some people who, in whatever way they may be exposed to the general causes of inflammation, continually get a sore throat. Whenever they are exposed to the vicissitudes of temperature, coldness, and moisture, they are sure to have inflammation of the throat; and this will run in families, so as to be constitutional. It certainly is predisposed to by mercury. When persons have been much under the influence of mercury, they are very liable (as I formerly mentioned, when speak ing of inflammation in general) to take cold from the vicissitudes of temperature; and the throat is certainly particularly liable to inflammation from this cause. The youthful period of life appears more liable to tonsillitis than old age; for we see far more cases of inflammatory sore-throat in the young, than in the old. Perhaps, among the predisposing causes, I might mention the season of the year - spring. Cases of this description certainly occur (from cold and wet) more frequently in the spring, than at any other period of the year. The exciting causes of the disease are, especially, cold and wet - whether applied to the body at large, or to the feet only. Cold applied in any way, is sufficient to produce the disease. With regard to the treatment, it is rarely necessary to take blood from the arm; but leeches around the throat, are particularly useful. I do not know that it is necessary to apply them internally to the fauces. I think that, applied externally, they answer every purpose they can; and that a free application of leeches, is far superior to blistering. As a general rule, in the treatment of inflammation, we must be upon our guard never to let blistering take the place of the removal of blood. If the inflammation be at all severe, you only harass a patient (in any disease whatever) by blistering, if there be a necessity to take away blood; and, in this disease, blistering is a very painful remedy. A blister produces great anguish, when applied to the throat; and does not, by any means, answer so good a purpose as leeches - the frequent application of leeches externally, under the lower jaw, followed by poultices. The application of poultices not only tends' to encourage the bleeding, but is a constant fomentation - a mode of relaxing the parts, and causing perspira tion there. If the patient be too weak for you to apply leeches, a blister then will be proper; or, if you have applied leeches as much as you think advisable, and still it is requisite to do more before the disease can be controlled, then blisters may be used with advantage. It must be remembered, however, that when a patient can bear leeches, you will find them the most useful.

This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Lectures of the Course to the Preparatory Medical Class, Columbia, S. C The body of man is modified by the impressions of the emotional and intellectual element of his constitution, so as to render his organism far more complex and interesting than that of other animals, and yet there is enough in common with them to elicit our most pro found consideration. It is not simply a combination of parts under the in uence of the ordinary relations of the physical world, but there is a mysterious element of life associated with the elements of the body, which qualifies and enhances every function. While it is uo part of my plan to attempt any elucidation of the connection of mind and matter or soul and body, it devolves upon me to note some of the changes which result from this relation constituting the physico vital phenomena of the organization of man. In my use of words there is no reference to the dogmatism of former days; but with the sole View of expressing simply, the thing intended, it will be my object to use terms which will be readily comprehended, and avail myself of technicalities only when they are essential to convey acor rect idea of the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Medical Nursing: Delivered in the Royal Infirmary, Glasgow Five years ago the Managers of the Glasgow Royal Infirmary resolved that a course of Systematic Lectures on Nursing should be added to the practical training, that, for many years previously, the nurse probationers of the hospital had in turn undergone. It was arranged that I should undertake the medical section of the work; and since then I have given, once a year or oftener, a course of lectures on Medical Nursing. Now that other duties prevent me continuing these lectures, I have thought that in this form they may continue to be of some service, and to a greater number. They are here presented exactly as they were delivered during the present autumn, with the exception of the last, which formed the concluding lecture of a previous course.
