Synopsis
Excerpt from A Report on Two Cases of a Peiar Form of Hand Infection, Due to an Organism Resembling the Koch-Weeks Bacillus
Thirty-six hours later a fullness and throbbing began in the end of the finger and at the end of another twenty-four hours a small, painful, intracutaneous vesicle appeared at the site of the knife wound. This was opened under antiseptic precautions and a frac tion of a drop of clear fluid liberated. The minute cavity was freely exposed and a saturated solution of acetate of aluminum was kept in contact with the opening and with the entire finger as well, for four days. NO relief was experienced. Upon changing the dress ings daily, a slight staining, equivalent to two or three drops of wound secretion, was noticeable. No redness or swelling appeared.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed analysis of two rare cases of finger infection caused by a type of bacteria similar to the type that causes pink eye. The cases occurred in 1903 and were meticulously documented by the author, a hospital surgeon. The patients involved were initially treated with various methods, including incision and drainage, but these treatments were largely unsuccessful. The author's detailed observations and experiments eventually led to the identification of the causative organism, which was found to be a small rod-shaped bacteria. The book provides a thorough examination of the clinical manifestations, bacteriological findings, and experimental studies related to this unique infection. It also discusses the broader context of acute finger infections and the challenges faced in their management during the early 20th century. The book's insights shed light on the complexities of bacterial infections and the importance of understanding their specific characteristics for effective treatment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780332294698_0
