Modern Treatment Of Pneumonia

The Medical Record referring TO some
important facts recently brought for
ward by DIR. Henry Hartshorne, reopens
fine question whether the modern treat
ment Of pneussania is a failure. In the
Peunsylyania Hospital from 1915 to
1877. when vencsection prevailed in the
treatment of pneumonia, only one in
sixteen patients died from the disease.
From 1854 to 1886 the proportion af
death was much greater ID SO. In
the United States Army between 1910
and 1874, when bleeding was a part Of
the treatment, the mortality was only
4 i'm lis, Hhiie between 1856 and 1853
after veneseetiou was abandoned. the
mortality from pneumonia increased to
i i'm a.67. The Record considers the an
ti-pyreetie method OF treating pnenu-
monja .aistinctIy pe,lieioas,s but APP
a,arenIy indorses Dr. HartsAorae's rec
onn,endation for d return to a Euoae-
rate needing in the early stage of the
