DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The American Journal of Obstetrics and Diseases of Women and Children, Vol. 51: January-June, 1905 NO special introducing forceps 0r syringe are necessary, al though some have been described. I use, however, nearly always a forceps with a pelvic curve and fenestrated blades for the greater ease in the introduction, yet a sponge holder will do. The syringe employed is an ordinary Davidson's. The glass varieties are very apt to break. The metal ones get out Of order and can not be boiled. Of course, the asepsis must be perfect in every detail. It is well to insert the largest size bag possible at the outset and to remember in filling the balloon with the fluid to inflate slowly with Slight traction on the tube so that the head, if presenting, will be displaced as little as possible. The patient is left to nature's efforts after the introduction Of the balloon unless there is need of hurry when traction can be made at regular intervals on the tube, increasing thereby the strength Of the pains and accelerating the dilatation of the cervix. It is only necessary to insert successive bags in cases where great haste Is demanded and where the pains are few and far between or stop altogether after the first bag is expelled. Results - AS before stated, in a previous article, the writer re ported the first series Oi cases in which the balloons were used in the service at the Sloane Maternity Hospital. These were 72 in number out Of deliveries for the two years up to September 1, 1899. The cases selected had sure indications for interfering, and were those in which other methods had been tried and had failed. In all advantages were Obtained and the field of useful ness of the balloons was more definitely determined. This second series I want to report so as to further emphasize the utility of the bags and the great amount Of dependence we place upon them, especially in private practice. These cases also are not selected but I publish all in which bal loons were employed, the first set occurring in the first 200 cases of my private practice; the second set Occurring in the four years ending September 1, 1903, in deliveries, subsequent to those before reported, from the service of the Sloane Maternity Hospital.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The American Journal of Obstetrics and Diseases of Women and Children, Vol. 56: July-December, 1907 There are some of you who may remember the ridicule or skepticism that greeted the announcement of these measures; there are many more of you who remember how the pestilence gathered its terrors to itself and fled away in a night - and it has never returned. On December 21, less than three months later, Garrigues, in re porting the result of his work, was able to say: The effect of the treatment has been wonderful. As if by magic all trouble disappeared. Ninety-seven women have been delivered since its introduction and not only has none Of them died, but there has scarcely been any disease among them - only three had any rise of temperature. The pavilions are scarcely recognizable. Where we used to have offensive odors, feverish, prostrated, or despair ing patients, overworked nurses, and despondent doctors, the air is pure, the patients look well, their temperatures are normal, the nurses are cheerful, and the doctors happy. Could there be a greater triumph than this? Was ever greater lesson taught more quietly? What battle of the greatest general of the world's red fields was ever fraught with consequences more momentous?

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The American Journal of Obstetrics and Diseases of Women and Children, Vol. 77: January-June, 1918 ON February I 5, 1897, over twenty years ago, I began my connec tion with the Sloane Hospital for Women, then the Sloane Maternity Hospital. At that time women had no advice during their pregnan cies, little skill in the management of their labors, and practically no care during their puerperium. Some of the medical students saw a few cases delivered during their medical-school days, while all were totally unfit to practice obstetrics after their graduation. Of course, there were a few competent physicians to deliver women, but the rank and file were an ignorant lot, while such a man as a surgical obstetrician did not exist. The development of such men was in progress but along lines quite different from the modern ideas Of to-day. The instrument relied upon then to terminate dystocia was the forceps. Another Operation frequently employed to help one out of a difficulty was a version. Physicians had to be skilful at both of these operations for a successful outcome, because in the hands Of bunglers a tremendous amount of harm could be done.
