The following abstract from the an
nual report of the medical director of
the Maine State Sanatorium Associa
ton for the year ending June, 1910. has
been given out from the office of the
secretary:
The total number of patients admit
ted during the year was PIT. Total
number discharged 157, remaining in
the Sanatorium 60. Result of treat
ment of the 1871 discharged show %
were incpient cases. One of these re-
NAMED less than five weeks, the re-
naming q showing the most wonder
full results from treatment. In the
moderately advanced and advanced
class we had 1875 patients of whom 26
remained less than five weeks. As of
the number got most excellent results
from treatment 90 We're improved. 9
remained unchanged and 20 were pro-
gressvc. Three died. 20 patients gained
between Is and 20 pounds in weight; ~
between 20 and 25 pounds; six between
* and 20 pounds seven between 81
and 40 pounds; one over As pounds
Average gain in weight of all the pa
tents. counting both those who lost
and gained. nine pounds. The aver
age length of residence for the incipi-
ent patients % weeks. moderately adj
vanced patients % weeks The num-
Der of Office calls made 2491: number
of visits made to bed patients 1899:
number of throat treatments 1882:
number Of tuberculin treatments 1852
The result of treatment in the early
cases show the advantage of getting
patients early. This is one of our
greatest difficulties at the sanatorlm.
If all patients could be gotten in the
early stages at least 90 per cent. could
be returned to their homes with many
years of useful life before them. No
. doubt some Of them will reaSpe but
the gain will he great and makes san
atcrium treatment economically justi-
fable
The medical director has during the
past year made every effort to spread
a wider knowledge of the Sanatorium
by giving lectures throughout the state
descriptive of the work the sanatorium
is doing and the need of early diagnosis
of the disease and especially to give
better knowledge of the prevention OF
tuberculosis.
We have also during the past year
published 4 little paper with which
sreading wider knowledge of the tu-
bercucsis cause Five hundred copies
of these are sent out each month and
are doing much good.
