Treatment of Surgical Cases by Ho,

Treatment of Surgical Cases by Hot
Water.
From the New York Herald.
The great utility which NJ Reclus a
Paris surgeon, has shown that hot water
applications have on many surgical and
even medical cases is described in the Her.
ads European edition as really surprising.
Hot water baths are particularly useful in
the treatment of sprains, where the sprain-
ed joint is put In bandage and massage is
employed. The bandage should be elastic.
1t should not be so tightly applied as to
cause the patient discomfort, but should be
made to fit snugly about the joint. But it
should be removed twice a day, night ard
morning, and then the hot water brought to
bear. in the following way:
The sprained joint is put in a bath, of
which the temperature is gradually raised
from As to 80, 80, and even So degrees Cent
OBI degrees Fairy. Under the influence of
the heat the pain stops almost immedia sely,
and after an immersion of ten or twelve
minutes the joint Is more timber and the
movements easier.
But the most important use of hot water
made by NJ Reclus is in cases of crushed
limbs, in which ne does not resort to ampu-
tation, but subjects the injured limb to a
spray OF water at a tenlpera ture of about
14O degrees Fahr. This method has several
advantages-especially those ''of being less
fatal than the treatment by immediate oper-
alton, and of preserving for the patient. if
not the whole limb, at any rate a much
greater length than would have remained
after an an;putation.
NJ. Reclus also finds that hot water has
an excellent effect on sluggish wounds, and
in sore throats and tonsiitis when sarelins
with it at a temperature of 13D degrees
Fair. is kept up every hour until the in
