Not illustrated. 1912 Excerpt: ...the proper rest cure, and it is clearly evident that during the first few days after a gastric hemorrhage the secondary hemorrhage would be much more liable to occur if food is given than if withheld. However, I feel that we have learned much from the large number of cases which Professor Lenhartz, et al, have treated. The great objection to the rectal feeding is that sufficient calories cannot be given to nourish the patient, and the great irritation occasioned by this method. Seventeenth to twenty-fourth day. 7 A. M.--Two soft-boiled eggs, butter (1 gram), toasted bread (50 grams), 300 c.c. of milk. 10 A. M.--300 c.c. of milk, crackers (50 grams), butter (20 grams). 1 p. M.--Broiled lamb chop (50 grams), mashed potato (50 grams), toasted bread (50 grams), butter (10 grams), one cup of bouillon (200 c.c). 4 p. M.--Same as at 10 A. M. 6.30 P.

During the first two days, he is given the usual high nutrient enemata of beaten eggs and peptonized milk at long intervals, having previously taken care to irrigate the bowel with salt and water. During these two days the patient may be given bits of ice to dissolve in his mouth, and cold water to gargle his throat. Other liquids suitable for giving per rectum are the following: Rectal Enemata. Leube's: 300 c.c. of milk...
