Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Relative Efficiency of the Various Methods of Administering Saline Purgatives
In conclusion,then, it may be stated that a te-examination of the effect of intravenous and subcutaneous injection of sodium citrate, sodium sulphate, and barium choride has shown that these salts markedly increase the amount of feces eliminated, and also, when given in larger doses, markedly increase the fluid ity of the feces. These results confirm in every respect the con elusions of maccallum. The reasons why Auer, and Meltzer and Auer have been unable to confirm this result seem to bez (1) they used only the milder purgatives mentioned by maccallum. And (2) in using these they did not keep adequate controls and thus failed to notice the increase in the amount of feces which they were probably getting.

On the Relative Efficiency of the Various Methods of Administering Saline
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the effectiveness of different methods of administering saline purgatives such as sodium citrate and sulphate, and barium chloride, and how these methods can impact purgation. It was previously unclear whether the subcutaneous or intravenous administration of these salts could cause purgation. The author conducted experiments on rabbits to determine which methods were most effective in producing purgation, and found that all three salts increased the amount of feces eliminated when administered subcutaneously or intravenously. Larger doses of the salts also increased the fluidity of the feces. The findings suggest that the mechanism for purgation is located in the intestinal walls and is stimulated by saline purgatives regardless of how they are introduced into the body. This book contributes to our understanding of the physiological mechanisms involved in purgation and the effects of different methods of administering purgative salts. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282999360_0
