Brief note to accompany the Annual Statements of
the Mental Hospital, Nagpur, for the year 1927.
Lieut.–Colonel W. Tarr, I.M.S., was in charge through-
out the year except for the period from 15th March 1927
to 14th
June 1927, during which Mr. Narbada Prasad
Shrivastava, L.M.&S., M.B., B.S., Officiating Civil Surgeon,
Nagpur, held the charge.
STATEMENT NO. I.
Admissions.
2. 397 (313 males and 84 females) patients were under
treatment at the beginning of the year.
87 (76 males and 11 females) including
9 re-admissions (8 males and 1 female)
were admitted during the year making a total of 484
(389 males and 95 females).
The number of patients at
the close of the year was 409 (322 males and 87 females)
including 116 criminals against 397 and 116, respectively,
last year. Nagpur district as usual contributed the largest
number of admissions, i.e., 32 (29 males and 3 females),
Jubbulpore 17, Buldana 6, Amraoti 5, and the rest were from
other districts of the province and Central India. The number
of admissions on reception order on petitions under section 10
of Act IV of 1912, was 5 against 7 last year and two were
admitted as voluntary boarders.
The total accommodation provided was 438 (312
males and 126 females) and the largest number accommo-
dated on any one night was 424 (336 males and 88 females)
i.e., 24 in excess of the proper accommodation on the male
side. Overcrowding was mitigated to some extent by keeping
some sick patients in the hospital ward and permitting a
few to sleep in the verandahs at night.
Owing to over-
crowding the Local Government has issued orders restricting
admissions of non-dangerous male inmates into the Hospital.
The number of patients paying Rs. 30 and over at the close
of the year was 7 against 10 last year.
2
Discharges.
3. 56 patients were discharged against 64 last year,
33 as cured, 12 improved, 1 not improved
and 10 otherwise. Of those discharged
otherwise 9 (8 males and 1 female) were transferred to the
list of non-criminals and 1 transferred to the Mental Hospital,
Lahore.
Cases under observation.
4. One case remained under observation on 1st January
1927, 41 including 1 re-admission were
admitted during the year against 42 last
year. Of these 42, 27 were certified as insanes and
admitted, 3 were discharged by the Magistrate although
certified ; 8 were uncertified as they exhibited no symptoms
of lunacy ; 2 died and 2 remained at the close of the year.
Sickness and mortality.
5. The mortality during the year was 19 against 23
last year, giving a percentage of 4.62
against 5.79 last year. The principal
causes of deaths were :—pulmonary tuberculosis 1, tuberculo-
sis of the intestines 1, pneumonia 1, mitral regurgitation 1,
heart failure 1, secondary anaemia 2, general debility 2,
exhaustion due to acute mania 2, epilepsy 2, acute nephritis
2, anorexia 1, colitis 1, dysentery due to balantidium coli 1,
and septicaemia 1.
The period of stay of these cases in hospital was as
under:—
Between 15 and 20 years
...
Between 10 and 15 years
...
Between 5 and 10 years
...
Between 1 and 5 years
...
Between 6 and 12 months

Out of 7 deaths under one year, 4 patients were received
in a very bad state of health, 1 with indifferent health and 2 in
good health.
The death-rate per cent for 1927 in Mental Hospitals
in other provinces in India was 11.45 in the Punjab, 11.1 in
3
Bombay, 10.72 in Assam, 8.31 in the United Provinces, 7.24
in Madras, 5.51 in Burma, 4.62 in European Mental Hospital,
Ranchi and 3.12 in Indian Mental Hospital, Kanke Ranchi
(Bihar and Orissa).
Ankylostome infection.
6. Of new admissions 6.57 per cent were already infect-
ed against 12.5 last year. The usual
treatment (Manson's mixture) was carried
out at half yearly intervals. Of the 421 stools examined from
separate admissions ankylostomes were detected in 26 cases.
These were given combined treatment of chenopodium oil
and carbon tetrachloride, and the results were quite good.
Other helminths found were:—Ascaris lumbricoides 31,
Trichiurus trichiura 5, Oxyuris vermicularis 2, Toenia solium 1.
STATEMENT NO. II.
Criminal lunatics.
7. Admissions of criminal lunatics were 19 against 24
last year. 11 were admitted from Jails,
6 were unfit for trial and 2 were acquitted
on the ground of insanity. Discharges were 13 and deaths
6 against 15 and 4 respectively last year. The number
remaining at the close of the year was 116 (104 males and
12 females) against 116 (103 males and 13 females) last
year.

were 52 and 36 against 55 and 49 respectively last year.
Next comes melancholia with 17 admissions and 11 discharges,
Under errors of development the admissions were 9,
under insanity due to cannabis indica 1 and under dementia
praecox 2.

STATEMENT NO. VIII.
Finance.
11. The total amount spent for the upkeep of the Mental
Hospital was Rs. 1,13,140-11-7 against
Rs. 1,06,774-3-1 last year. Out of this
Rs. 6,941-12-6 were spent by the Public
Works Department on annual repairs and additions and
alterations to the existing buildings. Excluding this amount
and other book adjustments
the expenditure was
Rs. 1,05,679-9-1 against Rs. 1,03,155-3-10 last year. The
increase is due to the additional supply of articles of food neces-
sitated by the increased number of admissions and purchase
of more vegetables and grass than that in the last year owing
to the failure of the garden produce and farm (grass reserve
area). Receipts from paying patients amounted to
Rs. 11,555-0-4 against Rs. 9,369-3-8 and the receipts from
other sources Rs. 2,464-15-3 against Rs. 5,233-14-6. The
average cost of diet and clothing of a lunatic was Rs. 101
against Rs. 101 last year.
STATEMENT No . IX.
Establishment.
12. The establishment remained
unchanged during the year under report.
5
STATEMENT NO. X.
Profit and Loss.
13. Profits during the year were Rs. 5,009-6-3 against
Rs. 11,169-4-6 last year. The increase
last year was due to the auction
of surplus cattle, etc., as stated in that
year's report. This year profit from the sale of flowers was
reduced and the crop of vegetables and grass was poor as
mentioned in paragraph 11 above.
First Aid Training.
14. A batch of five male attendants
was trained and passed in First Aid.
Amusements, etc.
15. Gramophone entertainments were given and sweets
distributed on Hindu, Christian and
Mohammedan festivals. In and out-door
games to those taking interest in them were allowed.
Rewards in the shape of sweets and other petty articles to
hard working and deserving patients were as usual given
during the year.
General remarks.
16. Administrative approval of the Local Government
to Stage I plans and estimate, the latter
amounting to Rs. 52,600 for the con-
struction of a ward for 20 non-paying patients and of 6 blocks
for paying patients with cook-rooms, etc., has been conveyed
in Medical Administration and Public Health Department
No. 5627-980-IX, dated the 22nd November 1927. In this
connection I consider that the spending of a few thousand
rupees more and locating these new paying wards on the
entrance side of the Hospital instead of behind would be
justified and with this end in view I shall examine the question
again.
The outstanding feature of the year is the insistent
demand for accommodation which cannot be met but which
has to some extent been mitigated by refusing admissions to
all non-violent cases. This problem cannot be shelved; one
way of solving it is by adding more wards ; this is being
done ; another is by decreasing the average stay of patients
in hospital, i.e., curing some of them quicker. Recent investi-
gations show that chronic focal sepsis is responsible not only
for such common ailments as rheumatism and gastric ulcer,
but is largely, sometimes solely, responsible for mental dis-
orders of the type most frequently met with viz., manic
depressive psychoneurosis and toxic insanity ; where this
problem has been dealt with vigorously the results have been
astonishing. In one large Mental Hospital in America the
6
number of discharges was doubled and the average stay in
hospital reduced from ten to three months. This focal sepsis
is in the teeth and tonsils in 70 to 80 per cent of cases.
I am submitting proposals separately to establish a dental
department and for the engagement of a throat specialist to
carry out treatment on the lines suggested. It seems that
money spent in this fashion must yield good results.
Staff.
17. Rao Bahadur K. G. Paonasker has gone on leave
pending retirement after many years'
association with the Hospital in which he
was keenly interested.
The rest of the staff has maintained its good record-
A blank audit speaks well for an institution of this description-
18. As Superintendent of the Mental Hospital Lieut.-
Colonel W. Tarr, I.M.S., carried out his duties with marked
zeal and efficiency.
