Synopsis

Excerpt from Traumatic Surgery

This book is written with the main idea of placing in one volume the information necessary to diagnose and treat all the usual and most of the unusual effects of accident and injury.

The profession at large has become reawakened to the problems of accident surgery. And. Incidentally, has come into a new relationship with the injured because of the operation of compensation and allied laws; likewise, the victims of accident, and civic, judicial, , and other agencies are exacting from the physician a higher grade of care and placing on him an added burden of responsibility.

The writer has long been of the opinion that cases of injury have not received the same care and attention accorded other surgical patients, and has often realized that a properly treated Pott's fracture or infection of the hand is a far greater manifestation of the surgical art than the successful removal of an interval appendix.

What follows is purposely didactic, and much of it relating to frac tures has hitherto been the subject of clinical lectures to successive groups of matriants at the post-graduate Medical School.

The text also aims to state the measures which the writer has found most practical in his own experience, and an effort has been made to unify and standardize the treatment of such common injuries as wounds, infections, burns. And the usual fractures. It will be noted that stress is placed on the routine use of but few antiseptics, the drainage of all wounds. The immediate and complete reduction of fractures, and non-reliance upon complicated splints or those that hide the part or are irremovable.
