A New Theory Of Chloroform Syncope Showing How The Anesthetic Ought To Be Administered (1890)

""A New Theory of Chloroform Syncope: Showing How the Anesthetic Ought to be Administered"" is a medical book written by Robert Kirk and originally published in 1890. The book presents a new theory on the administration of chloroform anesthesia, specifically focusing on the prevention of chloroform syncope, a potentially fatal condition that can occur during anesthesia. Kirk proposes a new method of administering chloroform that involves the use of a specially designed inhaler and careful monitoring of the patient's vital signs. He also discusses the history of chloroform anesthesia and the various methods that have been used to administer it in the past. The book is intended for medical professionals and students interested in anesthesia and the history of medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
