Chloroform Tin:
Chloroform played a major role in Civil War surgery and the section of anesthesia in the Medical and Surgical History received critical acclaim for the complete and extraordinarily interesting survey of its use. In an analysis of 8900 wartime injuries involving wartime operations, chloroform was used in 6784 cases, ether in 1305, and a combination of the two in 811. |
