FOR MEASLES PATIENTS
IFolloFwing the appearanre of sev
eral sases of measles in Anshorage
And elsewhere in the railroad belt,
Dr. J. H. Romig,( lhief of staff at the
•Government Hospital at that plale,
{prepared a bulletin for the guidance
<of parents and others in avoiding
■contacts during the danger period and
iin the care of those contracting the
■disease.
The circular follows:
First, measles are highly infectiohs
tto those who have not had them. Us
■dally cadght within a radius of fifteen
.feet from the patient. It is not re
trained long in the room, or in the
■clothing of the patient after they are
well.
After exposure, there is a period
of from nine to twenty days, usually
:about ten or twelve, until the disease
.-appears.
For a few days before the eruption
Appears the patient appears sleepy
.and tired, and has the sylptoms of a
■cold; eyes and nose running and some
■cough. This is probably the most in
fectious time. There then appears in
.the mouth small spots on the red
■deued surface of the cheeks and
■gums. In other words, the mouth be
anies sore. The temperature devel
ops, ranging from 100 to 104, and the
joatient seems quite sick. The erup
tion then appears upon the face, neck
■and chest, and in a few days extends

down to the feet. It is of a mottly 1
red. Patient should be kept warm at j
this time, for it is desired to have a
well broken out patient. The mouth
should be gargled with soda water, or
any good mouth wash. The eyes are
tended, and the room should be dark
ened. The bowels should be free,
but not purged. The diet should be
liquid.
In about three days, or such a mat
ter, the rash begins .to fade, and all
; symptoms get better. Later there is
J a little fine scaling of the dry skin.
It is important to keep the patient
in a warm room for about a week
after the rash is gone, and, in some
cases, longer. The .dangers are in
catching cold. They may develop
pneumonia, which would be danger
j ous. Further, the lungs are in a very
receptive condition to suberculosis,
fend exposure to that should be avoid-!
ed for some time. For the safey of
i the patient and to prevent exposure
to others, the isolation time is from
three t ofour weeks.
If the eyes are very sore they
should be washed several times a day
with boric acid solution, and the pa
tient should be kept in a room of
shaded light or wear darkened glasses
until the tenderness to light is gone.
The ears sometimes become in
■ volved and the hearing greatly im
paired. This is better prevented than
cured, and is accomplished by keeping
the throat clean by gargles. Salt or
soda water may be sniced up the nose,
if necessary, to clean it, but if ear
ache does occur, you will have to use
a hot-water bottle and keep the pa
tient warm.
