Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1911, Vol. 9 July 1, 1910, the preventive medicine annex of the Research Laboratory of the New York Board of Health took over the preparation, distribution and administration of antimeningitis serum from Rockefeller Institute. Jochmann, Kolle and Wassermann, the New York Board of Health and others had prepared the scrum some time before it was taken up by Rockefeller Institute, so the serum itself was not new, but the credit for introducing its intraspinal use in this country is Dr. Flexner´s. Under his direction, the Rockefeller Institute prepared it and distributed it to all who would supply careful records. This was of the greatest advantage in procuring a quick decision as to its great value. During part of the last big epidemic here (1904-05) the Health Department tried using it subcutaneously and found it to be of such doubtful value that its preparation was discontinued. Meningitis is a reportable disease in New York City. The plan of the department from the first has been to have the physician on each case, so soon as he is known by the report of the case, offered the services of a department consultant. We make our appointments with the attending physicians for the earliest moment possible and see cases nights and Sundays with them, because occasionally twelve hours´ delay will seem to be a possible cause of a fatal outcome. We go over the history, examine the case, and if it seems to us to warrant it, even though we may not consider it to be one of meningitis, we do a lumbar puncture. It takes tact and infinite patience to persuade some of the poor, ignorant, foreign parents to allow us to do it, but usually if properly approached, they finally give in.
