Cholera MalignantCategory: PRESCRIPTIONS. Source: A Newly Discovered System Of Electrical Medication As in cholera morbus, keep the patient on his back, still as can be. Use A D current, full medium strength. In the early stage, or during the "rice-water" discharges, and down to the time of collapse, treat the abdomen and thorax with P. P., having N. P., long cord, on back of neck--not too near the head. After treating so a few moments--say four to six minutes--remove P. P. to the back, and pass it along close upon each side of the spinous processes from the lower lumbar up to about the middle of the dorsal vertebrae. Continue this about three or four minutes. If cramping accompany the vomiting and purging, carry the P. P. a part of the time to the muscles in spasm, leaving N. P. still at the back of neck, with long cord. Repeat the above processes as often as once an hour until symptoms improve. Then reduce their frequency as the case will admit of. In the state of collapse, place P. P., long cord, at the coccyx, and manipulate with N. P. over the entire trunk and arms; bestowing a larger share of treatment along up the spine than elsewhere. Then remove P. P., long cord, to feet, and work with N. P. all over the lower limbs and hips. Treat in this stage of the disease some six or eight minutes at a time, and repeat it as the case seems to demand--once in thirty minutes to once in two, four or six hours, until improvement or death shall ensue.
