Cloth over Boards. Condition: Very Good. No Dust Jacket. This book, "Bier's Hyperemic Treatment" by Willy Meyer and Victor Schmieden, delves into the medical practice of hyperemic treatment, a method developed by Professor August Bier. The core subject matter revolves around the therapeutic application of hyperemia, which involves increasing blood flow to a specific area of the body to promote healing. The book explores both active (arterial) and passive (venous) hyperemia, detailing their practical applications in surgery, medicine, and various specialties. --- The authors, Willy Meyer and Victor Schmieden, were significant figures in the medical field. Willy Meyer was a Professor of Surgery at the New York Post-Graduate Medical School and Hospital, and Victor Schmieden was an assistant to Professor Bier at the University of Berlin. Their collaboration on this manual highlights the international reach and importance of Bier's work. The book is dedicated to Professor August Bier himself, acknowledging his pioneering contributions to the field of medicine. --- August Bier (1861-1949) was a German surgeon renowned for his innovations, including being the first to perform spinal anesthesia and developing intravenous regional anesthesia, often referred to as a "Bier block." His hyperemic therapy was based on the idea that increased blood flow could diminish pain, reduce infection, prevent pus formation, and aid in healing by bringing more antimicrobial agents to the affected area and carrying away toxic products. This book, published in 1909, holds historical significance as a manual detailing a then-innovative medical treatment. For a collector, it represents an early and comprehensive account of a therapeutic approach developed by a highly influential surgeon, offering insight into early 20th-century medical practices and the dissemination of new medical knowledge.--- CONDITION: Overall, the book is in excellent condition. The beveled boards are lightly worn along edges and corners. Hinges tight. Binding sturdy. The text block and pages are crisp and clean. book.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces Biers hyperemic treatment, a remarkable therapeutic approach to combat disease that has gained increasing popularity due to its effectiveness and the absence of harmful side effects. Biers hyperemic treatment utilizes intentional venous hyperemia to combat various maladies, including infections, chronic diseases such as tuberculosis, and even certain tumors. The author explains that, by increasing the blood flow to an affected area, the body's own healing mechanisms are stimulated, enabling patients to overcome a wide range of health issues. The book emphasizes the importance of avoiding the use of ice in the management of pain and inflammation, as this practice actively suppresses the body's natural healing response. In addition, the author explains that Biers hyperemic treatment can often avoid the need for surgical intervention, especially in the case of abscesses and boils, and can also greatly reduce the size of necessary incisions. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the principles of Biers hyperemic treatment and offers valuable clinical insights that have revolutionized the field of medicine.
