Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Epidemic Cholera: Its Pathology and Treatment The abundance of the permanent, and especially of the more ephemeral literature on the subject of cholera at the present time, produced and brought into relief by the recent spread of the disease over a considerable portion of the Eastern Continent, and its threatened invasion of the Western, would seem to render further additions unnecessary: - and I should not trouble my professional brethren with even the briefest exposition of my views on the subject, if I had speculations and theories only to offer, or if I had not much confidence in the therapeutical principles, and the practical details of treatment which I propose to present. Having seen much of cholera in 1851, ´52 and ´54 in Chicago; and while acting as City Physician in 1852, (the year of its greatest prevalence among emigrants and others coining under municipal supervision,) having the privilege of observing the results of the disease when left to itself, as well as the modifications effected by a great variety of treatment: and having, furthermore, studied with all the interest, concentration and care of which I was capable during the whole three long seasons, directing the treatment in many hundreds of cases, I have been enabled to form some opinions on practical points which are held with much firmness, and therefore, submitted with less hesitancy and misgiving than otherwise would have been possible, upon a subject of such vast importance, and respecting which, among the most learned, there is so little that is fully settled, and so many opinions that are conflicting. In what is to follow I shall attempt nothing like a complete treatise on Cholera, or indulge in any extended reference to its literature; giving merely such views as may seem practically most important, and such as are mainly the results of my own experience and reflection; neither following any particular leading, or avoiding any path that may have been pursued by others.
