We would again emphasize the value of careful nursing to conserve the patients’ strength. They should be kept warm, well covered, with plenty of fresh air. Water should be given regularly and abundantly. The diet should be light, one depending a good deal upon the severity of the case. We believe it is safer to limit the diet to fluids while the infection is still pronounced, but as soon as the crisis has passed one may increase the diet freely and fairly rapidly. Regular elimination from the bowel should be helped by the use of castor oil every other day, the dosage made to comply with the patient. We noticed much less abdominal distention in this form of pneumonia than one is accustomed to see in the ordinary lobar pneumonia. If distention were present, plain soap enemas with turpentine gave very satisfactory results. Turpentine stupes also are of considerable value. Rest at night is needed. When a hypnotic was necessary we gave morphine (gr. ⅙), and repeated if the desired results were not obtained. The day is coming when we are going to isolate our pneumonia cases. This was almost an impossibility during the stress of the past epidemic, but we know that temporary and fairly satisfactory methods can be applied. Many hospitals provided for a type of isolation. In a pneumonia ward sheets stretched between the beds keep the fine spray which a heavy cough always produces from spreading over the next two or three beds. This method is simple and can be easily carried out. We feel almost certain of having seen convalescent influenza cases develop pneumonia from the adjacent pneumonia patients. As much as is physically possible, the uncomplicated influenza and the pneumonia cases should be separated. Further, it is to be kept in mind that reinfection by another group of pneumococcus is quite possible, even in a ward containing only pneumonia patients. We did not observe any special effect of quinine, salol, salicylates after the pneumonia had developed and, therefore, these drugs were discontinued. Digitalis in the form of the tincture was at first made a routine measure, but toward the middle of the epidemic we stopped this routine usage and gave it only as it appeared to be indicated. Our impression was that the heart was not involved as it is in ordinary pneumonia. A slow, full pulse, as was so often the rule, did not seem to require digitalis. For more rapid action of the drug one of the hypodermic digitalis preparations or strophanthin was given. Caffein sodium benzoate or salicylate seemed to be of considerable value given hypodermically every two or three hours, the last dose at 4 P. M. Its action as a respiratory stimulant and also as a diuretic was what we desired to obtain. The drug was used fairly early in the pneumonia, and although it was never prescribed routinely we gave it frequently.
