Synopsis

Excerpt from Essentials of Obstetrics: Arranged in the Form of Questions and Answers, Prepared Especially for Students of Medicine This manual is to assist the student in mastering the essentials of the science and art of obstetrics. As a work of this kind must of necessity be limited in its character, the author has relied upon his experience as a teacher for the selection of such matter as, in his judgment, will prove of most value. He has endeavored to present in a clear and concise manner the views of the present day, and the standard works of Parvin, Goodell, Lusk, Playfair, Hirst's American System of Obstetrics, Winckel's Diseases of Women, Hart and Barbour, Thomas, Emmet, and Charpentier's Cyclopedia of Obstetrics and Gynecology have been consulted. The chapter on obstetric auscultation and palpation has been fully discussed and embodies the didactic and bedside instructions of Prof. Parvin. In the preparation of the chapter on Cesarean section the writer is indebted to an article written by Dr. Gustav Zinke, the illustration showing the deep and superficial uterine sutures being taken from the same source. He is also indebted to his friend Dr. Henry H. Sherk for several of the illustrations, and to his former student Dr. James C. Bloomfield for the preparation of the index.
