Even in Apoplexy, in attacks of which it is still customary to take blood, in the greater number of cases--such as come on very suddenly, where the insensibility is complete, or where the patient is recovering on the advent of the doctor, cases depending on ruptured tissue--it has come to be allowed that to bleed is to enact a farce not very dissimilar to locking the stable door when the mare has been stolen, for-the mischief is over and done. The only cases in which leeching seems at all necessary, are some cases of inflammation of the lungs, womb, and the lung and intestine coverings; and these cases are only to be rightly determined by a medical man who brings all his knowledge to bear: therefore never bleed on any consideration without special medical advice. Leeches are usually kept in water, and when they have to be used, under advice, should be carefully wiped dry, with as little handling as possible, before being applied to the part. If they decline to bite, a little cream should be smeared over the skin. They are usually most conveniently put on in a wine-glass. After they have fallen off, gently sponge the skin and apply a poultice of bread or linseed.

Download or read book Selected Health Conditions and Likelihood of Improvement with Treatment written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2020-07-12 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Security Administration (SSA) administers two programs that provide disability benefits: the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. SSDI provides disability benefits to people (under the full retirement age) who are no longer able to work because of a disabling medical condition. SSI provides income assistance for disabled, blind, and aged people who have limited income and resources regardless of their prior participation in the labor force. Both programs share a common disability determination process administered by SSA and state agencies as well as a common definition of disability for adults: "the inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months." Disabled workers might receive either SSDI benefits or SSI payments, or both, depending on their recent work history and current income and assets. Disabled workers might also receive benefits from other public programs such as workers' compensation, which insures against work-related illness or injuries occurring on the job, but those other programs have their own definitions and eligibility criteria. Selected Health Conditions and Likelihood of Improvement with Treatment identifies and defines the professionally accepted, standard measurements of outcomes improvement for medical conditions. This report also identifies specific, long-lasting medical conditions for adults in the categories of mental health disorders, cancers, and musculoskeletal disorders. Specifically, these conditions are disabling for a length of time, but typically don't result in permanently disabling limitations; are responsive to treatment; and after a specific length of time of treatment, improve to the point at which the conditions are no longer disabling.
