Prontosil in Obstetrics
نویسنده
چکیده
Hospital for cases of puerperal fever. The results ^ere encouraging, especially in cutting short the Pyrexial period. I later used it for the same purpose at Ham Green Hospital, and afterwards at the General Hospital. The improvement in the mortality rate ^ras not obvious, as the number of cases treated was too small for comparison with those treated before the introduction of Prontosil. The most marked improvement was in the localization of the septic process and the rapidity of the cure. These initial trials convinced me of the value of this new drug, and since then I have used it in every case of puerperal fever, and for prophylaxis in cases in which septic infection is present, or intra-uterine manipulation has been carried out. The dosage varies according to the virulence of the infection. In septicaemia 15 c.cm. of Prontosil soluble is given daily for seven days, and t^o tablets of Prontosil album three times a day.
