Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis In 1890 Behring enunciated the doctrine of the antitoxic substances which develop in the animal or ganism from the bacterial toxins, and this led to the introduction of the antitoxin of diphtheria into gen eral medical practice. In spite of occasional adverse criticism and an occasional death due directly to the remedy, it has proved its value in the treatment of diphtheria beyond a doubt, and thousands of lives are yearly saved that would otherwise undoubtedly have been lost.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pneumothorax Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis The treatment of pulmonary tubercle by collapse and compression of the diseased lung, through the medium of an artificial or induced pneumothorax, is a procedure which has certainly reached the stage where a convenient textbook should be welcomed. When the writer, some years since, first began to practise this treatment, he found himself greatly hampered by the difficulty of solving the various problems that confronted him through reference to a very voluminous, but scattered and highly polyglot literature. These difficulties have become no less of recent years: a convenient text-book has not arrived, and the writer has, consequently, been tempted to assemble together these results of his own and others' experience in the hope that they may smooth the way for those who wish to study this treatment. The problems of pneumothorax treatment are many and complex, as might, indeed, be expected in a method of comparatively recent introduction, and one which involves so momentous a disturbance of the normal physical relationship of the chest organs. To some of these problems no final answer can be given at the present time, and the reader will have to content himself with an outline of recent views together with some indication of their trend.

This book was released on 2016-12-25 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diagnosis and Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis He has described his new method of elastic tube percussion and endeavored to point out its advantages and limitations. He has also described more fully than can be usually found in works of this character the effect of advanced tuberculosis on the heart, also the contractions and compensatory emphysemas which occur on the part of the lung, in order to carry on the functions of respiration where one or both of these organs are seriously damaged. Tuberculosis is a disease caused by a specific micro-organism and like all such diseases it is cured by the establishment of immunity. This fact has been kept uppermost in mind in discussing the treatment of the disease. The author has endeavored to discuss clearly and impartially those measures which are of greatest value in bringing about improvement or cure. He has endeavored to define the possibilities of each measure and to Show its limitations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Its Modern and Specialized Treatment; With a Brief Account of the Methods of Study and Treatment at the Henry Phipps Institute of Philadelphia In the following pages I have not attempted to write an encyclopazdic consideration of the treat ment of tuberculosis, but to present the subject as practically and brie y as is consistent with accuracy and thoroughness. The aim has been to make the book, not a treatise on hygiene and therapeutics, but a useful guide for those who have tuberculous patients under their care and are in search of practical counsel in the details of their management. With this end in view the funda mentals of treatment (in general, so illy under stood and applied) are discussed in much detail.

Download or read book Early Pulmonary Tuberculosis written by John Bromham Hawes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-04 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Diagnosis, Prognosis and Treatment Tamas are plenty of large authoritative books about tuberculosis. There are plenty of small books which are not authoritative. Dr. Hawes has written a book which is small and yet authoritative. Therein lies its unique merit. Many of the points on which he expresses himself so frankly and tersely are hotly controverted points and he has not formed his Opinion without giving due consid eration to what is to be said upon all sides. In the end I think he has arrived at a set of beliefs expressing the best knowledge of the time. His wide and varied experi ence in the clinical management of tuberculous patients at the Massachusetts General Hospital is balanced by a ripe acquaintance with the social and institutional side of the tuberculosis problem. His position as secretary to the commission in charge of the four tuberculosis sanatoria maintained by the State of Massachusetts brings him into close touch with all of the problems relating to the sanatorium care of tuberculous patients. At the same time, he sees these institutions from without and from the standpoint of an active general practitioner. I feel sure that the book will be of use to many physicians.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rational Treatment Pulmonary Tuberculosis T o the physician the terms pulmonary tuberculosis and pulmonary phthisis are synonymous, tuberculosis being the cause of phthisis. Among the laity, however, a shade of difference. In the meanings of these two expressions is still recognized. The phthisical subject or consumptive is one whose tuberculous condition is plainly apparent even to the uninitiated, while the tuberculous subject is a patient who is as yet phthisical only to the medical man. As the lay man is accustomed to believing in the existence of phthisis only when the disease is apparent to every one, he will not always allow himself to be convinced of the gravity of the case when a physician diagnosticates pulmonary disease in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulmonary Tuberculosis Recent research has also shown that infection with tubercle bacilli endows an organism with a certain degree of resistance, or even im munity, against further and renewed exogenic infection with the same virus. Experimental investigations have proved that it is impossible to reinfect a tuberculous animal with tubercle bacilli. Many clinical phenomena, which have hitherto baffled those who studied the disease, such as the rarity of conjugal phthisis, or of tuberculous disease in those living and working among phthisical patients, and of soldiers in the armies. Are now explained by this immunity of the tuberculous against reinfection with tubercle bacilli. Phthisis is at present considered a manifestation of immunity. Prophylaxis of infection has been shifted to the child, while that of phthisis involves more than prevention of infection. In the discussion of the clinical aspects of phthisis an attempt has been made to elaborate on the constitutional symptoms, which are still the sheet-anchor of the physician who is charged with deciding whether a patient is ill and in need of treatment. Bacteriology and serology are excellent helps in showing whether the patient has been infected with tubercle bacilli; skiagraphy reveals airless areas of lung tissue; but they do not give conclusive proof that the patient is sick and in need of prolonged and costly treatment. We also know that unity of causation is not always an indication of unity of resulting clinical phenomena in tuberculosis: The clinical picture of tuberculosis in infants is different from that in children; in adults some, irrespective of the treatment applied, show a marked tendency to sclerosis or fibrosis of the lesion; in others caseation and destruction of lung tissue go on progressively; in still others there is a sluggish course, marked by periods of illness alternating with periods of comparative comfort. For these reasons several types of the disease, or syndromes, have been described, each of which has not only a different clinical course, but also a different outlook as to recovery, and the treatment differs markedly in each form of the disease.

This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of Climate to the Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis Tuberculous patients are sometimes puzzled by con icting medical advice on the subject of climate in its relations to the treatment of their disease. It is not surprising that diverse opinions prevail. From very early times the cure of tuberculosis has been associated, more or less, with certain places, and, as Klebs says: At one time or another, almost any combination of known atmospheric conditions was considered to constitute a climate which had protective or cura tive qualities for consumptives. The reason for this is found, of course, in the fact that pulmonary tuberculosis is a chronic disease, depending for arrest upon a large number of factors, many of which are independent of atmospheric conditions and common to all climates. Another thing which has added to the confusion of ideas on the subject has been the search for immune zones, regions where tuber culosis is rare or absent, the inference being implied that such places offer climatic conditions useful in treating the disease. No region, however, has long continued free from tuberculosis after being reached by modern civilization. Remote districts became infected rapidly as soon as the disease was introduced. Thinly populated areas, what ever their geographical position, become tubercularized wherever cities are built and confining trades established. Latham states that tuberculosis is rife amongst the watchmakers of the high Alps. The death rate from tuberculosis among our native Indians is not appreciably less in those tribes which have always lived in the arid Southwest and other favorable climates. Neither the salts in sea air, the ozone of forests, nor the rarefied atmosphere of mountains are remedial in themselves; they simply typify an outdoor life. Physi eiaus are practically agreed that there is no specific climate for tuberculosis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
