After the jet douche for five seconds, following this hot-air bath, the pulse was 72; respiration, 20 and deep; temperature, 99° F.; (blood estimate, 5,200,000 red and 10,000 white corpuscles). Surely there is no medicinal agent which produces such changes when administered in ordinary medicinal doses, and none the effects of Fig. 9. which have been more clearly and scientifically demonstrated than the simple experiments made on healthy individuals with absolutely harmless water applications here clearly show. II. Effect Of Hydriatic Applications Upon The Composition Of The Blood. I. Changes in the Corpuscular Elements of the Blood.--The observations of Professor Winternitz * on this subject are of great interest. Dr. Winternitz investigated the number and relative proportions of red and white blood cells in the blood before and after cold applications, and found that there is a considerable change in their ratio after these procedures. This change consists in the fact that while a white cell is accompanied by from four hundred to eight hundred red cells before a cold application, after such treatment the number of white cells is increased from two to three times. These observations were made in healthy as well as in diseased subjects. These experiments are not conclusive in all directions. He states that this leucocytosis continues one-half hour after the bath. Its duration could not be ascertained with exactness, but in several cases it was observed two hours later. Winternitz regarded this as the only observation of this kind until he learned that Professor Eovighi had presented the results of similar experiments to the International Congress at...
