WOUNDS OF HEAD NEED REST
Special Care Given to Injured Soldiers
Obviates Epilepsy and Insanity
Many Recover.
Experience in this war has
brought about a radical change in
the treatment of wounds of the head.
It is now realized that these are not
usually cases requiring immediate
surgery, unless there be extensive
hemorrhage, and these are practical
ly hopeless.
Special hospitals for head cases
have now been established. The
Journal of the American Medical
Association says the standard treat
ment consists of a “primary cleans
ing of the w7ound, the transmission
of the patient as soon as possible to
the hospital in which he will re
main until convalescent, the making
of Roentgengrams, the excision of
the scalp and bone wound, a careful
removal of foreign bodies, the cov
ering of the exposed brain, the
closure of the wound and prolonged
rest in bed.
T)r. G. H. Making reports to the
British Medical Journal that the
mortality of these cases is small, that
complications, such as epilepsy and
insanity, are rare and that many pa
tients with foreign bodies deeply
lodged in the brain recover.
