A PLEA FOR STANDARDIZED AND INTENSIVE TREATMENT OF THE NEUROSYPHILITIC AND PARETIC
Abstract
1. This paper is a plea to institute systematic and intensive treatment for the benefit of the neurosyphilitic or paretic, be the latter in the first or last stage.
2. That the method described is simple, devoid of practically all danger and has given very gratifying results, from the study of 237 cases of all ypes of neurosyphilitic conditions.
3. While the treatment is in no way superior to others it is at least worthy of trial, since it is quickly administered, and there are very few complications attendant upon its administration.
4. It is most desirable to recognize the disease in its earliest form so that intensive treatment may be instituted and the best results obtained.
5. The general practitioner may use this form of treatment in his office with the aid of Somneform anæsthesia.
