Principles or guides for a better selection or classification of consumptives amenable to high altitude treatment - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A. Edgar Tussey's work offers practical, early guidance for identifying and classifying people with "consumption" (tuberculosis) who may benefit from treatment at high altitude. Rather than treating all patients as the same, he focuses on selection-arguing that outcomes depend heavily on matching the right sufferers to the right environment. Tussey lays out criteria intended to help clinicians distinguish those likely to respond to altitude therapy from those who are less suitable, aiming to improve results and avoid wasted or harmful interventions. Throughout, the book emphasizes careful observation, orderly classification, and clinical judgment as the foundation for making better treatment decisions in the context of sanatorium high-altitude care. Principles or guides for a better selection or classification of consumptives amenable to high altitude treatment is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1896.
