Wounds Of the Heart.

In wounds Of the heart itself the es-
cape Of blood is never in large quaint
ty. and the lethal consequences are
due to the fact that the escape Of blood
from within it's cavity Of cavities into
the surrounding sac Of the pericardium
mechanically interrupts the alternate
contraction and expansion by which
it's pumping action is maintained. Ac-
cordingly the results Of the wound OF
the heart are usually identical with
