THE MEDICAL CONVENTION IN BoS.
ION.


The Convention adjourned sine die on Fri
day afternoon.
10 the session on Wednesday, Professor n.
R. Smih, of Baltimore, read long report from
the Committee on Surgery, most unequlvocaliy
defending tho use OF choroiorm. The report
says:
1t tas been administered TO million. of sub
jcels, and We have but fifteen cases Of authen-
ticalc1 cea b. supervenng from its use Alarm,
therefore, on the subject Is needless. Much
more cause is there for alarm, much more rea-
son TO apprencnd fatal termination, in takog
an ordinary rail road journey, than in Dhsing
chloioform, at tie hands of judicous and care
ul practitioner.
II is inadmissible to proceed with a surgical
operation, in dangerous cases, without The use
OF choroform, because safety and inmunity
from pain are secured. II should not be used
where there is disease of the heart; and in IN.
hala,ion care should be taken that atmospheric
air De mixed with the chloroform. Inhalation
should STOP The moment that insensbiliy IS at
tanned. Prof Simpson has published lis oPin
ion that one hundred lives have been preserved
by the use OF cniorotorm, where one has been
lost by it. He further says, that the mortality
where chloroform is used IS much less than IN
similar cases where it is dispensed with.
In careful hands, chloroform j. an invaluable
agent. The author of this report has admlLis-
tered it thirty four times to one patient, young
woman, TO the extent Of complete insensibllity,
without any unpleasant results: Professor Mott,
of New York, has performed operations which
he would not have attempted without the aid
of chloroforn.
