This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ...5 contains two dozen small cotton swabs in i--2000 bichloride solution. No. 6 contains four clean towels (from the dozen provided by the patient) thoroughly saturated with the bichloride solution. No. 7 is to be used for receiving the placenta, and should be wrapped in a wet bichloride towel. In addition, two clean cups or tumblers are obtained and half filled with boric acid solution.

Ergot. Iodine. Acetic Acid. Chloroform. (Plate VII.) The stoppers of all these bottles should invariably be loosened, so that there may be no delay in case one is needed. The chloroform bottle should be provided with a dropper cork, and the chloroform inhaler should be placed beside it. The Douche Bag (Fountain Syringe) is to be flushed out with bichloride solution (1-1000), filled with hot lysol solution (two per cent.), and suspended from a convenient nail z o m s 8 or from the chandelier, about three feet above the level of the bed.
