Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Diseases of the Heart and Aorta The author of this volume has tried to place before the general practitioner a brief, simple, but practical, presentment of cardiac and aortic affections, chiefly from the standpoint of his personal experience. Unusual opportunities for seeing the clinical and pathological aspects of these diseases have furnished him with the material illustrating the relation of clinical signs to post mortem appearances. Over a hundred cases from his individual records are given at some length. But the book is not an encyclopædia. Little space is given to the Anatomy or Surgery of the Heart or Aorta, to Congenital Anomalies or Tumors, or to Parasites of the Heart. And there are obvious omissions of subjects that are sometimes treated at length in books on Heart Disease. For example, only brief mention is made of the Sphygmograph, because it is thought to mislead rather than help at the bed-side or in the consulting room. The practical value of the Sphygmanometer, however, is recognized. Nor do theories or methods of treatment that have little, or merely a historical value, receive: much notice. At the same time it is believed that the exceptional quantity and character of the data made use of, will give proper emphasis to the newer views expressed. From this point of view, the comparative values of diagnostic signs, and the relative frequency and gravity of valvular diseases are subjects that may enlist special interest. A good deal of space is given to modern methods of treatment. The volume is based on a series of articles that originally appeared in our Medical periodicals, but have been revised, while new chapters have been written. The majority of the cuts are original. With all its failings, for which the author must be responsible, it is hoped that the general practitioner will find it a useful addition to his store of handy-books, helping him to manage his heart cases more intelligently, and therefore with more satisfaction to himself and his patients.
