Book Description
Excerpt from The North-Western Medical and Surgical Journal, 1855, Vol. 4 But in all the more important and lasting cases of symptomatic fever, the structures involved in inflammation are such that die turbance of one or more functions of importance neeesshrily salts co-incidently with the beginning of the local disease. And such is the intimate relation and dependence of one important function on all the others, that no sudden disturbance of one can take place without inducing more or less change in all. Thus disease, occupying any considerable part of the cutaneous surface, suspends the elimination from the skin, causing, on the one hand, rapid accumulation of perspirable matter in the blood; thereby exerting a universal irritant influence; and on the other, eqnally' rapid accumulation of heat from the diminished insensible evapo ration, by which, in health, the caloric on the surface of the body is constantly being rendered latent, and conveyed away. F rom these two alterations - the retention of irritating matter in the circulating fluids, and the accumulation of caloric, general febrile symptoms are very quickly developed. Again, inflammation of any portion of the respiratory apparatus suficient to materially impede respiration quickly alters the interchange of oxygen and carbonic acid through the lungs, thereby altering the quality of the blood, and, through it, the functions and properties of the system. If we bear in mind the fact, that every change in the capillary circulation is accompanied by a change of function, we shall see that the first step in the inflammatory process, namely, determina tion of blood to, and its accumulation in the inflamed part, almost necessarily involves more or less alteration in the capillary cir culation generally, and consequent] y must induce at once some general disturbance.
