Book Description
Excerpt from Wounds of the Thorax in War I was asked by the Editor of this series to write a short practical account of wounds of the thorax received in war for those who have begun the art of repairing wounds inflicted by their 'brethren'. At the present time, it is obviously useless and undesirable to attempt to introduce statistical results or other statements marking out special cases. I have therefore endeavoured to make the account the result of my own personal experience as well as of those with whom I have been brought into personal contact; and I must leave the statistics of these inquiries to be dealt with in full by others when the time has come to collate from many different sources the general results of injuries in the Great War, and these will no doubt show wide differences in various theatres. I desire to express my thanks to the Director-General of the Naval Medical Service for his permission to publish this short account. Also to Colonel Sir G. H. Makins for much help received from his writings and for his kind permission to make use of some of his illustrations, and to Professor Robinson for the same friendly courtesy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Wounds in War: The Mechanism of Their, Production and Their Treatment Probably no branch of surgery has undergone more important changes, in consequence of the teachings of Lister and of Pasteur, than that of gunshot wounds. As antiseptic methods have, in certain cases, rendered possible the performance of operations on regions of the body hitherto untouched by the civil surgeon, and as they have, in others, enabled him to avoid interference, and war ranted him in substituting conservative treatment for the more radical measures of earlier times, so they have, in the treatment of the wounded in war, enabled the military surgeon to save lives and limbs, the latter of which, at all events, would, in the days of Larrey and Guthrie, have been sacrificed without hesitation.

Wounds of the Abdomen (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 336
Book Description
Excerpt from Wounds of the Abdomen The infinite variety of injuries which any war presents to the surgeon gives to military surgery a special interest and importance. The special interest and importance, in a surgical sense, Of the great European War lies not so much in the fact that examples of every form of gross lesion of organs and limbs have been seen, for if we read the Older writers we find little in the modems that is new in this respect, but is to be found in the enormous mass of clinical material which has been presented to us and in the production of evidence sufficient to eliminate sources of error in determining important conclusions. For the first time also in any campaign the labours of the surgeon and the physician have had the aid of the bacteriologist, the pathologist, the physiologist, and indeed of every form of scientific assistance, in the solution of their respective problems. The clinician entered upon the great war armed with all the resources which the advances of fifty years had made available. If the surgical problems of modern war can be said not to differ sensibly from the campaigns of the past, the form in which they have been presented is certainly as different as are the methods of their solution. The achievements in the field of discovery of the chemist, the physicist, and the biologist have given the military surgeon an advantage in diagnosis and treatment which was denied to his predecessors, and we are able to measure the effects of these advantages when we come to appraise the results which have been attained. But although we may admit the general truth of these statements it would be wrong to assume that modern scientific knowledge was, on the outbreak of the war.

Excerpt from The Treatment of War Wounds The huge numbers in the contending armies cause sudden flooding of the hospitals, especially those near the front, with enormous numbers of the wounded after each drive or assault. Thus a hospital with 300 or 400 beds may suddenly be overwhelmed by 1000 or more cases. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Early Treatment of War Wounds It was perhaps inevitable that advances should at first be somewhat slow. During the last year or two affairs appear to have progressed more rapidly and satisfactorily, and great improvements have been made in many directions. The early treatment of wounds, the prevention and treatment of shock and collapse, the operative procedures in all types of injury, and many other problems, have received close attention with the result that the advance in these and many other matters has been very marked. Thousands of limbs and lives are now saved which. At the commencement of the war, would have been regarded as irretrievably lost.

Book Description
Excerpt from Bipp Treatment of War Wounds The best manner of accomplishing these ends seemed to be by limiting the informa tion offered to what I knew, and by rejecting any other matter, however interesting it might be. The book is an account of our method of Wound Treatment, and it is so simple that a clever surgeon is unnecessary for the achieve ment of the best results, though a careful one is essential.
