Treatment of Epistaxis
The writer endorses Naegeli's method of stopping nose-bleed. With the patient sitting in a chair and the physician standing behind him, the latter places his hands under the patient's lower jaw and occipt and pulls the head firmly upward. The effect is still further increased if the upward traction is accompanied by a maximum flexion of the head backwards. The epistaxis usually ceases in a minute or two.-Ritschl; Muench. Med. Woch.
