CALCUTTA MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS.
There is but slight variation in the percentage of deaths among patients
so classified, and the figures of the table speak for themselves. Referring
again to the large mortality at the Howrah and Campbell Hospitals, it will
be seen that, while the death-rate of the Campbell Hospital among men, women,
and children remained about the same during the last three years, there has on
the whole been greater success in 1892 in the treatment of house-patients at
Howrah.
8. The diseases from which in-patients suffered and the resulting mortality
is given in the following table for each institution separately, but in statement
II in the appendix is shown the diseases of both in-door and out-door
patients.

NOTE.—There was one death in 1891 and another in 1892 in this hospital from enteric fever, but the disease did not originate at this station. The patients
were transferred from other hospitals.
25. With the exception of the Campbell Hospital, the admissions for
remittent fever are about the same as in previous years. At all the institutions
there were 1,215 cases, against 1,188 in 1891.
26. Cerebro-spinal fever was seen at the Medical College Hospital only, at
which there were 3 admissions with fatal results in each case.

36. Dental Surgery .—This department is personally superintended by
Mr. Woods, who is also Lecturer in Dental Surgery at the Medical College.
The total number of patients relieved was 2,362, against 2,275 in 1891. The

The figures represent the large amount of relief given, and often in case of
acute suffering.

will afford him better facilities for teaching.
38. Eden Hospital.—The figures representing the relief afforded by this
institution are included with those of the Medical College Hospital, but it is
desirable to show separately the work done in it.

There were no deaths among patients grouped under the head "Other
classes" in 1892. There is seen to have been a decline in the number of Euro-
peans and natives admitted into this institution, attributed by Dr. Joubert
to the opening of the out-door department, in which some cases were treated
who would otherwise have been admitted as in-patients. Mothers with
sick children would gladly avoid detention in hospital in all cases in which
advice and medicine could safely be obtained in the out-door department.
The death-rate is found to be higher both among Europeans and natives,
and is said to have been due to the larger number of patients received in 1892
in a hopeless condition.
39. Confinements. —There were 501 women delivered in 1892, against 542

The deaths were 26 in 1892 against 21 in 1891, and as usual they chiefly
occurred among natives, who do not seek relief till all their own methods of
treatment have been tried in vain. We can only hope for improvement in this
respect as the success of our western system of treatment is more generally
appreciated by the people. The causes of death among European and Eurasian
lying-in women were as follows:
—
1 from chronic inflammation of kidneys.
1 „ eclampsia—convulsions—on the 6th day after labour.
1 „ pelvic cellulitis—ordinarily known as puerperal fever—on the 14th day after
delivery.
1 „ phthisis—ten days after confinement.
Among native patients the causes were as follows:
—
12 from septicæmia—blood poisoning,
1 „ deformity of pelvis,
1 „ apoplexy,
1 „ heart disease,
1 „ malarial fever,
and 6 were moribund on admission.
40. Septicæmia. —There were 31 cases seen in the year, and death resulted
in 21 of them. The corresponding figures of 1891 were 24 and 18 respectively.
Nine originated in the hospital, and 22 were found to be suffering from it on
admission. Some of the patients were, it is needless to record, in an exceedingly
dirty and neglected condition on admission, with high temperature and great
prostration. The tendency to fever in child-birth is much more marked in this
country, and among the native poor there is the added danger of previous
malarial poisoning, rendering the body less able to bear the shock of parturition.
41. It is not surprising, therefore, that septicæmia should occur at this
hospital with its usual fatality. But as its presence is a source of danger to
