GENERAL GUIDANCE: THERAPEUTICS
Homoeopathy has a distinct approach to disease. Concept of individualization
and concept of chronic miasm makes it distinct.
It recognizes an ailing individual by Studying him as a whole rather than in
terms of sick parts. It emphasizes that study of man from the state of Health i.e.
DISPOSITION DIATHESIS DISEASE, taking into account all predisposing and pre-
cipitating factors i.e. FUNDAMENTAL CAUSE, MAINTAINING CAUSE &
EXCITING CAUSE. Hahnemann’s theory of chronic miasm provides us an
evolutionary understanding of the chronic disease: PSORA -SYCOSIS-SYPHlLIS &
acute manifestations of Chronic Disease, Evolution of the natural disease shall be
comprehended in the light of theory or chronic miasm. How our current knowledge of
Pathology and clinical medicine assist in defining this must be demonstrated. Study of
19
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) U n i qu e P u bl i cati on
therapeutics does not mean simply list of specifics. For the clinical condition, but
teaching of applied Materia Medica. Here we demonstrate how various drugs would
come up in Psoric, Sycotic, tubercular or syphilitic state of the Clinical conditions.
Thus emphasis would be in correlating pace of evolution of disease, peculiar,
respectively and cluster of characteristics.
Thus teaching of therapeutics of Hypertension would demand delineation of
various phases of hypertension taking into account what is happening to the STRUC-
TURE and what kind of forms are thrown off. Psoric phase would be characterized
by LABILE hypertension which shoots up under stress, especially with rise in sys-
tolic and manifesting flushes and emotional disturbances.
This would draw our attention to drugs like GELSEMIUM, GLONOINE,
FERRUM MET etc. This is the functional phase. Tubercular hypertension would be
characterized by fairly high systolic and diastolic B.P. oscillating wildly at higher
range, manifesting bleeding like epistaxis etc., with erratic mental state. This will draw
attention to PHOPHORUS LACHESIS etc. Syphilitic dimension would be character-
ized by immense destructive damage at target organs like heart, kidney and retina.
Thus teachings THERAPEUTICS would essentially demand an effective corre-
lation of :
i) Knowledge of clinical/Medicine/Surgery.
ii) Appreciation of Natural disease its evolution in the light of Theory of chronic
miasm. Thus correlation with Organon Philosophy.
iii) Applied Materia Medica and Repertory:
Comprehending drug picture from the evolutionary angle-Boger’s approach towards
Materia Medica and its application for the study of various clinical patterns of
Natural disease.
Correlation with MATERIA MEDICA and with REPERTORY.

IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) U n i qu e P u bl i cati on
Introduction :
Symbol : Na, Group : IA, Series : 3. Atomic number : 11,
Atomic weight : 23.
Origin and Word meaning :-
Davi isolated metal Sodium (Na) in 1807 by the electorlysis of fused caustic
soda. It occurs as common salt (sodium chloride) in seawater, as rock salt in mines.
Sodium carbonate, Borax, Cryolite, Sodium sulphate, etc. Natrum (Sodium) is a
silvery white crystalline alkali metal. It is kept under organic solvent like kerosene as
it reacts with oxygen and water. It gives yellow colour to Bunsen flame and produces
densely white acrid smoke.
Sodium is used in the manufacture of various salts like sadamide, sodium per-
oxide, sodium cyanide; in petroleum refining and pharmaceuticals; sodium vapour
discharge lamps; thermometric liquid coolant; heat transfer medium and extraction of
boron, silicon, aluminium, titanium, etc. Na, in major part, is an extra cellular con-
stituent in the body.
Normal values : Extra cellular 140 mEq/lit, intracellular 5 mEq/lit. sodium con-
centration in the whole blood is 160 mgm %, plasma 330 mgm %, serum 136-145
mEq/lit, muscles 60-160 mgm% and nerve tissue 300 mgm%.
Daily requirement :
Infant (up to 1 yr) : 115-350 mg
Children (1-11 yrs) : 325-700 mg.
Adult : 1100-3300 mg.
Causes :
Adrenal insufficiency :
a) Deficient secretion of mineralo-corticoids may lead to sodium depletion.
b) Increased gluco-corticoid secretion directly reduced filtration.
Patho-physiology : Physiologically and clinically sodium and water metabolism are
inter related.
a) Sodium content of the body depends on balance of dietary intake and its renal
excretion. Extra renal loss is gegligible.
b) Reabsorption occurs in loop of Henle and distal convoluted tubules of the neph-
ron. Sodium content of extra cellular fluid determines the extra cellular
volume, as it is totally responsible for its osmolality.
c) when the total body sodium content is decreased, it is known as
hypo-natremia, and when it is increased, the condition is known as hyper-natremia.
d) the renin, angiotensin and aldosterone system is a mojor regulator of
Sodium homoeostasis.
Sodium and water Metabolism :
I. Combined Na and Water depletion :
A) Extra renal losses :
i) Gastro-intestinal : Deficient salt intake, excessive water intake, vomiting, diar-
rhoea, gastro-intestinal suction, fistula, etc.
ii) Abdominal sequestration : Peritonitis, rapid reaccumulation after
paracentesis as in ascites, pleural effussion etc.
B) Renal Losses : Diuretics, osmotic diuresis, urea and mannitol diuresis,
diabetic glycosuria, diabetes insipidus, organic mercurial chlorothiozal treatment etc.
II) Hypo-Natremia :
367
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) U n i qu e P u bl i cati on
A) Above causes :
B) Associated with no oedema.
i) Acute and chronic renal failure.
ii) Temporary impairment of water diuresis (pain, drugs, emotions).
iii) Syndrome of inappropriate secretion of ADH (SIADH):Oat cell carcinoma
of lungs, other neoplams, tumors secreting ADH, oral hypoglycemic agent-Chlorpro-
pamide and talbutamide and antineplastic immuno suppressive agents like Vincris-
tine, Cyclophosphamide, psycho-activator drug like Carbamezapine (tegritole) and
Amitriptyline (Elavil).
iv) Severe polydispsia.
v) Essential sick cell syndrome : CCF, pulmonary TB, liver cirrhosis.
III) Hyper-Natraemia :
A) Extra renal water loss :
i) Skin (insensible losses, burns, and sweat).
ii) Lungs (insensible)
B) Renal water loss :-
i) Diabetes insipidus (pituitary, nephrogenic).
ii) Osmotic diuresis (glycosuria, urea diuresis).
C) Primary excess of Natrum (excessive salt administration without access to wa-
ter).
Clinical features :-
Hyponatremia :- Assessment criteria are skin turgor,urine output & blood pressure.
i) Decreased skin turger or slow rate of return of skin to its original position when
it is raised between examiner’s finger.
ii) Oral mucosa may be dry and axillary sweating decreased.
iiii) a) With greater degree of volume depletion :
1) Oliguria.
2) Patient of often lethargic, weak, confused.
3) Oedema occurs due to CCF, cirrhosis of liver & nephrotic syndrome.
4) Muscle weakness, cramps, confusion, apathy and anorexia.
iv) Lab. findings :
1) haematocrit and plasma protein increased.
2) Plasma Natrum decreased.
3) Increased serum creatinine and BUN.
Hyper Natremia :
i) Principle symptoms of hyper natremia are observed in CNS :
Confusion, altered mental state, increased neuro-muscular irritability such as twitch-
ing and seizures, obtundation (sensation or thinking faculty become blunt). stupor or
coma (symptoms are similar to hyperglycemia). Neurological
symptoms occur due to dehydration of brain cells.
ii) Hyper natremia causes vascular abnormalities such as venous sinus throm-
bosis and haemorrhage from vessels which rupture when brain shrinks; and causes
high mortality rate especially in children and elderly person.
Common symptoms of Natrum group :-

dent and learning. Needs support. Cannot be independent. Wants to receive what
cannot give. Miser. Wants 3.
He wants them because he cannot be alone. And because he needs people to
tell him how good he is. He stands on their good opinions. He does not have the
strength of character to build himself on his own opinion. His own opinion may not be
so good, so he drowns it by hearing other people. People fulfill a need for him and so
he is nice to them as long as it suits him.
But he can throw them away when that need is over. So he can drop a friends at
a moments notice. The same fellow whom he claimed to be his greater friend is
nowhere on the horizon a few days later.
Kali has a tremendous capacity to make and keep friends. And to make them
work for him, inspite of them recognizing his utterly selfish nature. Magnetism I call it,
since I cannot find any other explaination.
Rubric : Wants company, but treats them outrageously.
3. Emerging from this is his tremendous attachments.
Esp to self + selfishness.
Attachment alos to material objects, buys much clothes, perfumes. Keeps them
in tip-top condition.
Fastidious +++. Balance between needs and capacity=health.
When wants far exceed the capacity it brings in its wake, disease. The makes
him extremely hypersensitive to external stimuli, emotional and physical. He imagines
insults when none are meant. Thus, building up tremendous insecurity and anxiety.
4. Anxiety : Pt says “doctor I do not have fear like other people because I feel it in
my stomach. If a door slams, I feel it right here in the epigastrinum.
Kent says, weakness after sex. Sex that act of joy, of procreation, of energiz-
ing, of recreating, of fulfilment, which should fill one enough to do more work, that act
or even thinking of it (sexual excitement) fo Kali only produces.
5. Debility : We can see how deep rooted the debility is. He is on the way to
breakdown. Tremulousness shivers and trembles for a day or 2 after coition.
6. The Kali spineless : His back gives way and he gets paralyzing backaches.
7. Moralistic : We must understand that the Kali needs to have people.
8. The Hypersensitivity to external stimuli, emotional and physical. On negative
side, imagines insults when none intended. Builds up anxiety and insecurity. Positive
aspect of sensitivity : Clairvoyant, psychic and intuitive.
9. Manipulative.
4) MERCURIUS
1. INTRODUCTION
To begin with three interesting stories of Mercurius (Romans), “hydrargium” (Latin),
“liquid silver” (Aristotle), “Silver water” (Dioskorides), or “quicksilver” (Latin)?
The name of the first story is ‘ The lake of the mountain spirits.” Russian
scientist I.A Efremov has presented this story. There was a lake famous for “evil
spirits” as anybody who visited the lake in a sunny weather died. It was regarded by
the people living in the area that the lake was inhabited with evil spirits who hated all
visitors. Some scientists decided to find out the cause of death. When they reached
the lake high in the mountains, they were amazed to learn that the lake contained not
only water, but also native mercury. The “evil spirits” were nothing but mercury vapour;
in hot water they rose above the surface of small and large mercury pools surround-
ing the lake. The inhalation of mercury vapour resulted in respiratory collapse and
372

death.
The second story is funny one. At the beginning of a last century a scientist tried to
obtain gold from mercury by passing powerful electrical discharges through mercury
vapour. The scientist had put in much time and effort and finally the first traces of
gold appeared in mercury. The scientist’s joy knew no bounds. But lo! It was the
‘elusiveness’ of mercury. The scientist soon realized that the gold he found in mer-
cury had peeled off the rims of his own glasses. Touching his glasses with his hand
on which tiny droplets of mercury had settled, the scientist transferred gold in the
form of amalgam from his fingers to the mercury he was studying.
The third story is about Hahnemann’s son and hence more interesting. Friedrich
Hahnemann brought out many of the symptoms of Mercury proving. He was ex-
tremely restless and always on the move. He finally travelled to U.S.A. and then
disappeared without trace as if to depict the personality of Mercury.
These stories depict three grand characters of Mercury – destructiveness, elu-
siveness and restlessness. The potentized dynamic effects depict the same to
meet acute and chronic cases, to meet all miasms in its coverage.

2. CHARACTERISTICS :-
Congestive. Catarrhal. Exudative. Ulcerative. Suppurative. Destructive
Glandular. Scrofulous. Scorbutic. Anemic. Rheumatic. Offensive
Sensitive. Tremulous. Dropsical . Agile. Chaotic. Debilitated. Syphilitic
1. Congestive: Merc is basically inflammatory group of remedies. Every inflamma-
373
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
tion begins with congestion and Merc has it forcefully in its pathogenesis. This
congestiveness has to be differentiated from Aco, Bell or Ferr-ph. These three drugs
have congestion in their first stage of inflammation. Merc presents a furtherance of
activity where suppuration has supervened. An abscess in Merc is of spreading
congestion-more red, more painful, more throbbing, and with adjacent lymphaden-
opathy.
2. Catarrhal: Merc causes inflammation of mucous membranes resulting in profuse,
thin, slimy, acrid, burning, foul or thick greenish-yellow discharges. Merc covers
simple to malignant catarrhs in its pathogenesis.
3. Exudative: Exuding the ichorous fluid, pus etc. through affected lesions like boils,
abscesses, carbuncles, sinuses, fistulae etc. is the characteristic of Merc. The exu-
dation is usually offensive in nature.
4. Ulcerative: Merc has ulcerations; of the mucous membranes, esp. of mouth and
throat. The syphilitic miasmatic dimension is responsible for recurrent and non-
healing ulcerations; ulcers based on deep pathologies, or metabolic basis. Syphilitic
phagadenic ulcers.
5. Suppurative: Inflammation in Merc doesn’t stop at the level of congestion. Inflam-
matory action is intensely acute and violent and rapidly tends to septic disorganiza-
tion. It is as if little resistance is offered by the system. Defective mesenchymal
system and phagocytosis turns the condition into suppuration. Merc has tendency to
pus formation and the pus is thin, green, putrid; streaked with blood. Suppuration in
glands, ulcers or even internal vital organs like lungs (e.g. empyema) or kidneys
(e.g. peri-nephric abscess or pyelonephritis) comes within the range of Merc.
6. Destructive: Merc transforms healthy cells into decrepit, inflamed and necrotic
wrecks. Merc is destructive both at body and mind levels. Its lesions resemble those
of syphilis. Merc’s action is similar to that of the toxins of infectious diseases. Inflam-
mations of malignant types, and prostration. Appropriate Merc salt can be thought of
in cases where perforation threatens.
7. Glandular: Merc has increased glandular activity, esp. of salivary and mucous
glands. Lymphatic system is esp. affected with all the membranes and glands. Merc
has concomitant lymphadenopathy with skin lesions like boil, abscess, ulcer etc.
Syphilitic miasm is responsible for even malignant glandular affections and fevers.
Based on scrofulous diathesis, it also covers tubercular glandular affections. Chronic
suppurating glands; cold abscesses are dealt with Merc.
8. Scrofulous: Tuberculous disease of lymphatic nodes and of bone, with slowly
suppurating abscesses. Merc decomposes the blood, producing a profound anemia.
It thus affects the nutrition and prepares a ground for scrofulous affections. Syphi-
litic activity further leads to cachexia.
9. Scorbutic: Merc has spongy and bleeding gums. When the general condition is
impaired and metabolism affected because of malnutrition, scorbusis may get devel-
oped. Scorbusis may be a precursor of metabolic diseases like DM.
10. Anaemic: Merc through decomposition of blood, and through bone-narrow de-
pression causes profound or aplastic anemia. Hemorrhages, metabolic disorders,
hepatic and renal toxicity cause anemia. Hence Merc constitution is emaciated, pale
with dark ring around eyes.
11. Rheumatic: Rheumatic diathesis is one of the features of Merc group. It has
both acute and chronic dimensions. Mercs are sensitive to both heat and cold -
human barometers and they come down with acute joint swellings and pains conse-
quent to weather changes. ‘Redness’ indicates Merc.
12. Offensive: Merc is filthy, mentally as well as physically. All discharges smell
374
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
horribly; the decomposition, the debris, the slough, the suppuration; smell emanates
from the body. Mercs are, hence, recognized to an observant physician.
13. Sensitive: Mercs are very sensitive to weather changes, hence termed as ‘hu-
man barometer’. The inflamed part is very sensitive and depicts all characters of
inflammation. The reactivity pattern is exhibited well. Sensitivity attracts environmen-
tal stimuli; hence modalities or sensory stimuli / inputs are usually available. Sensitiv-
ity is also present at mind level.
14. Tremulous: ‘Trembling’ is a marked characteristic of Merc. Paralysis agitans –
Parkinsonism -come under pathogenetic action of Merc. Syphilitic expressions with
a lot of pathologies at nerves, spinal cord, and brain resulting in inco-ordination are
responsible for tremulousness.
15. Dropsical: Dropsy due to anemia, hepatic, renal or cardiac affections are cov-
ered by Merc. Edematous swellings in the affected parts characterize Merc.
16. Agile: Merc is basically an‘active’ group. We get rapid development of symptoms
leading to destruction. When active disease processes are present, Merc group is
indicated. It is less indicated for remnants or for exhaustion stage. That work is
allotted to other groups like Carbon etc. Usually full-blown acute or chronic diseases
are found in Merc group because of increased sensitivity and susceptibility.
17. Chaotic: The aberrant immune response as expressed in autoimmune disorders
give the character of chaos. Under severe infection, the system becomes prey and
behaves in an eccentric way. Tubercular miasma actively dominates the scene. The
agile character allows the system to go into chaos.
18. Debilitated: The sway of disease processes under tubercular and syphilitic
miasmatic activities depletes the energy. The system can’t continue for long and
succumbs. Anemia, malnourishments add to the state of debility. Discharges pro-
duced do not ameliorate and further deplete the energy.
19. Syphilitic: Merc and syphilis are knot together since antiquity. Merc has in its
pathogenesis all stages of syphilis-primary, secondary and tertiary. Low states and
phagadenic condition from syphilitic poison. Destructive effects on nerves. It covers
both acute and chronic phases. Discharges which system develops as defense do
not help and syphilitic march is continued.
3. ANALOGICAL RELATIONSHIP
1] A poor conductor of heat but a fair conductor of electricity.
2] Atom shows the unstable quick reaction; changes its physical state quickly and
possesses extraordinary mobility.
3] Low melting and boiling point; reacts to changes of temperature and atmospheric
pressure.
4] Mercury has affinity for the liquid sphere and left to itself it assumes the form of
any liquid, the drop, which at the slightest instance, due to lack of adhesion and
liability of inner coherence separates into innumerable droplets, restlessly moving
about in every direction.
5] Solubility of mercury is directly proportional to availability of NaCl; NaCl
enhances Mercury solubility.
6] Mercury is heaviest of all known liquids, weighing 13.6 times as an equal volume
of water (1litre bottle of Hg weighs more than a bucket of water).
7] Its power of cohesion is extremely great but its adhension to its surroundings is
poor. Neither grasped like a solid and doesn’t stick like liquid and retains its own
shape.
8] Takes up and dissolves all metals such as gold, silver, tin etc. with the exceptions of
iron in solutions called amalgams.
375
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
9] A bizarre substance; cold and elusive, always restless; but when still, it is better
than a mirror to see into.
10] Due to its solubility in lipids, Mercury has a tendency to concentrate in nervous
tissue and particularly the brain which is extremely sensitive to mercury.
11] Mercury switches are used in automatic control and measuring instruments as
they ensure instantaneous opening and closing of electrical circuits.
12] Hg dissolves metals as water dissolves salt.
Interpretation in MM
1] Present erratic pattern of disease process. Established pathologies run rapidly.
2] Unstable mind and body, imaginations run riot. Exaggeration of complaints. Wants
to travel.
3] Human Barometer. Increased susceptibility and sensitivity. Changeability.
Vacillating.
4] Unstable at maintaining relations. Restless. Can go to any extreme under emo-
tional dominance.
5] Both Mercury and Natrum salts are related to ‘liquid state’ and hence catarrhal.
Mercury is furtherance of Natrum presenting suppuration and thick discharges.
Merc compliments Natrum and is an acute of it. Mentally Nat anger may go into
Merc rage.
6] Heavy to deal with both from personality and disease point of view. Presents deep
acting, syphilitic pathogenesis. Discharges are thick and suppurating.
7] A leader who coheses the mass but can’t maintain close I.P.R. (Inter-personal
Relationship) of harmony owing to elusive, detached and chameleon attributes.
8] Odd, clumsy, restless and difficult to unfold; full- blown disease portrait helps
click the remedy.
9] Presents “Mercurial erethism”- profound and characteristic disturbance of
nervous system and mind.
10] Instantaneous, quick to act. A trifle can provoke out of proportion response.
When open; aggressive, dictatorial; when closed; timid, shy, easily embarrassed.
11] Mercury almost dissolves the personality of others with its dictatorship, divide
and rule policy.
4. Development of Mercurius personality :-
One requires a special eye to spot Merc constitutionally. The use of Merc salts
more for acutes; more for pathological states has definitely overshadowed the per-
sonality structure of Merc. But it is possible to evolve the portrait out of messed-up
components. Mercs are full with diversity. Ultimately they are powerful, deep - acting
constitutional anti-syphilitic and hence replete with negative and perverted traits.
Born oversensitive. There is a definite pattern of sharp consciousness. The child
exhibits a ‘ reactive’ pattern. An active child. Beneath this activity lies restlessness.
The child is fidgety, constantly moving; never lies still and sleep of the child is only
solace to the parents. Even during sleep, he is restless and tossing. A problem child.
Intellectual, cunning, mischievous and capricious. Wants the things in his own way.
Obstinate. A tantrumy child. Ready to hit others. Aggressive. Offensive. Can’t tolerate
contradiction and may react with rage. Hits mother, shouts loudly, screams and
drives everyone crazy. Mother expresses the child as a ‘devil’ one, born to give
troubles. The child can’t be controlled, has absurd demands and if unfulfilled absurd
behavior. One often gets feeling as if the child is amoral and has no emotional
attachment.
Merc child has an attractive face. There is a definite tinge of cunningness expressed
in the eyes. With manipulation and blackmailing, the child tries to achieve his de-
376
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
mands. He will use all the techniques like sweet tongue, no communication and finally
violence to get his way. The child is very impatient and hurried. He wants his de-
mands to be fulfilled just now and he hates late response in a sulky way. The child
learns well that aggressiveness and dictatorship are the dependable means, the weap-
ons to become a warrior. He uses these weapons while playing with inmates. He
quarrels with friends, often takes the role of a leader and oppresses others. Child-
hood delinquency. Som e Merc children are born with criminal tendencies. The par-
ents often seek the help of a psychiatrist.
A precocious child, born under syphilitic miasmatic activity. Born with deformities
like ASD, VSD, Spina bifida etc. Family history of major illnesses like Ca, Stroke,
IHD, TB, Epilepsy, Psychosis, AIDS, Syphilis, Gonorrhea etc. This stock makes the
child vulnerable, the susceptibility tampered with to attract noxious stimuli. The mes-
enchymal system, the reticulo - endothelial system, the defective phagocytosis tell
upon the economy. The child is especially prone to strepto / staphylococcal, bacte-
rial, E-coli, parasitic, amoebic and viral infections. These get reflected at respiratory,
GIT, genito-urinary and skin level. Inflammatory response with or without infection
characterized by congestion- exudation- suppuration- fibrosis- necrosis- granuloma
may be observed as per the intensity of process. With illness, the child becomes
more cranky, more ill - humored and peevish.
Mercs are also indicated for Autism, mentally retarded children, and cerebral palsy
and also for puny children. Merc childhood passes more through sickness; diar-
rheas and dysenteric stools are common as also recurrent throat infections esp.
tonsillitis. Frequent use of the antibiotics alters already fragile flora to thrive the
organisms.
The child carries forward the traits and in the adolescence phase we get typi-
cally boyish ones (Mercs are indicated more for males due to masculine element).
The youths appear more immature, detached and as if in their own world. They are
sensitive but unpredictable. They are always hurried, restless and almost running.
While watching TV, they will go on changing the channels so frequently that the very
purpose of watching TV is lost. They become bored easily and they must be kept
busy. They will go on playing video games or with mobile sets constantly pressing
buttons. Their speech is hurried and one has to carefully listen to what they say.
There is a penchant for violent movies and rap / pop music. They enjoy dancing with
loud music. They may go in pub with the group or alone. Dancing, however, is
clumsier and orderly rhythmic Tarn dance they are unable to perform. Early sex
awakening leads Merc to indulge in sex. Mercs are sensual and they are more
guided by ‘id’ than ‘super-ego’. Hence they enter into danger zone to contract sexu-
ally transmitted diseases like syphilis, gonorrhea, AIDS, granuloma inguinale, lym-
phogranuloma venereum etc. Homosexuality is a feature of Merc.
What worries parents is youth’s neutrality. He doesn’t maintain close, amicable rela-
tions neither at home nor at school. In addition, being non-routinist, they pick up new
fashions, new cloths, new cassettes, new influences, new friends and these new
things soon become old. Being capricious, their demands are diverse and unending.
Some Merc youths are excited and lively. Being intellectual, they are able to influ-
ence others, being cunning they are able to manipulate others and being destructive
they are able to harass others. They are quick and hence some intellectual Mercs
grasp the subject readily. They do their study work fast and they do not like to repeat
the work. Mercs do not like to sit in one place for a long time and in a boring class,
they become very restless. They attend the school/college infrequently and yet they
get good marks. They are intuitive and recall in the nick of the time the precise words
377
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
and sentences. However, tempting forces distract mature youths and their journey
then marches towards non-idealistic path.
Merc youths do not like the advice of elders and they can’t tolerate contradiction.
They take everything contrary and go to extreme. They prefer to remain alone and
outside home and get addicted to wine, women, and drugs. Many Mercs become
robbers and murderers. They start spending time in jail from an early life. The jour-
ney towards perversion begins in early life and now they need monitoring, counsel-
ling and treatment.
We have seen the sharp consciousness of Merc child with aggressiveness and
self-centeredness. In the adolescence, picking up captivating influences and getting
carried away by them. Changeability is a marked fixed character and he has no
fixed personality of his own. All this projects Merc’s fluid state. To describe life of
Merc the better expression will be ‘fluid consciousness’. This personality is not
fragile like Sil. One may get an apparent opinion that they are strong people. Given
their intellect and cunningness they are able to manage themselves; they come out of
difficult periods but through resorting to low means. Mercs are ambitious and in
order to fulfill their aspirations, they know well how to deal with people. They know the
weakness of people and keep them in their memory box to utilize later at proper time.
This behavior resembles Lach. But Lach is passionate and has no fluid personality.
Mercs oscillate between extreme poles and the powerful, influencing force pulls them.
This force could be moral or amoral. It is the influence that matters. It is like pulsating
with wind. But it is not like Puls. Puls has no say of her own because of absence of
self-righteousness. Puls clings to others for her emotional dependence. Mercs are
independent, fixed though for the time being. It is like fixity with changeability. They
do not exhibit lack of confidence. It is a state of ‘always on the move’, shifting from
one issue to another.
The changeability and attraction for new makes Merc mistrustful, unfaithful. Merc
comes in the life of a woman and goes, without being loyal to her feelings. It is the
opportunism and Mercs are clever in exploiting the opportunities. Their trades are
also with many wrongdoings. Mercs flourish their trades through political-criminal
nexus and may kill the persons who come in their way. It is not that he has lust of
power but it is more fascination, thrill and strangely it is not associated with emotion-
alism.
Many Mercs enjoy literature. They have fascination for words and they enjoy writing,
making poems or be comedians. They are also quick readers. Detective, sensual
and violence literature are the favorites. Stories of dictators attract them. Intellectual
Mercs have a good amount of information on various subjects. During discussion,
they forcefully put their arguments. Being sharp and quick, their comprehension is
good and opinions correct. Merc mind is fast and they do not like indolent talk. This
is about a rational Merc. But an irrational Merc is more ambiguous and silly too. This
perverted perception often goes contrary.
Mercs are domineering types and they enjoy dictatorship. They have experienced
oppression during their childhood and they are not the fellows who will quietly tolerate
the injustice. Some Mercs are detached since childhood – parents are divorced or
father is alcoholic and not paying attention to family, mother is away attending the
parties or there is criminal set-up in the family and Mercs have received the learning
to be so. Poor family ties and unaffable family set-up have kept Mercs detached and
they have not experienced the real joy of family as a unit. Hence they are unable to
understand the feelings of others. They use the domination quickly if the quarrel
occurs and they do not like long arguments in a quarrel. They will end up the issue by
378
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
giving the result in the form of non-compromising statement or a hit. They may resort
to lying and no conscience will bite them. They will speak lie without being affected
emotionally. They will remain silent and deceive others.
Mercs enjoy travelling, hotelling and hi-fi life. To enjoy such a life, one requires a
fluid state and Mercs have it. The modern mantra of life is ‘use and throw’ and
Mercs imbibe it fully. They may go on travel with any one, alienating their families.
They just enjoy, abuse their bodies, satisfy needs and move…
This ‘use and throw’ attitude of Merc makes the life of wife miserable. Is it the Merc
instinct transmitted through generation where women are regarded as sensual sub-
jects of lust? Merc look upon his wife through his gratification and he is not con-
cerned with the feeling of wife. This strains the relations. Merc uses this as an
excuse for outgoing. He contracts STD and gives it to wife. Low value system coupled
with detachment ruin the family life. Many Mercs consume alcohol at home and go
on abusing wife and children hours together. Merc. can not balance himself between
his inner desires and outward life. He can’t understand the reality of life, as he wants
to live the life in his own way.
Abusing body over a long period pay-off ! The body has withstood the agile life
for long. The life has been lived as a wild animal in the jungle of men. An anarchist
life, a chaotic life, a life governed more by animal instincts. The delusion is persistent
‘ money is not enough’. They have been squanderers. The detached behavior
followed ever since a long time, now indeed alienates them. They are now neglected,
repudiated. They were offensive bodily and mentally and now they emanate a dis-
gusting smell. Their breath, sweat, saliva, the whole body gives out a bad odor. (It is
said that spiritual masters or sadhus emanate a sweet odor). Their previous charm
has vanished. Teeth crumbled, eyes lusterless, hands and the body tremors, stam-
mering speech, salivation dribbling, the skin has wrinkled, the vital organs are crying,
grievancing, rebelling against the chronic suppressions and injustice. Mercs have
acted in life, now life compels to act as rebound. Now the life is a dictator. Mercs
have regarded themselves as heroes but now turning as zeroes. Incidentally it must
be noted that Mercury was regarded as the semen of Lord Shiva.
‘Despair’ is the best expression to present the mental state. Life is not to be dealt with
frivolously is the lesson but Mercs, though aged are not able to take the role of
learners. Life has been only lived hedonistically. Loathing with suicidal disposition
and insane behavior characterize Merc’s old age. They remain as dotards, rogues,
and scoundrels and pass away in agony. Mercs are born syphilitic and die also in a
syphilitic way. Hats off syphilis! It will never disappear from the earth!! And Merc will
never go into oblivion from the armamentarium of homoeopathy in view of its great
potentiality!!!.

CENTERS OF ACTION
Argentum group of medicines has six special centers of action:
1. Mucous membranes: - Up on the mucous membrane of the stomach and duode-
num, the main action of the Argentum is to produce atony with great flatulence; but
when given in large doses, it causes vomiting, purging and violent gastro intestinal
inflammation. It causes Inflammation of the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose,
mouth, pharynx, larynx, urethra and vagina.
2. Cartilaginous system: - Especially that of the ears, nose, false ribs, tarsal
cartilages, tendons and ligaments of joints producing destructive inflammation.
3. Glandular system: - Induration and fatty degeneration of glandular system.
4. Blood: - Here it produces defective oxidation, destruction of the red corpuscles,
anaemia and depressed temperature.
5. Skin: - Nodular and vesicular inflammation.
6. Cerebro-spinal system: - Silver has a special action upon the cerebrospinal
system, as shown by the titanic convulsions, paralysis, and insensibility that ensue
from large doses.
SYMPTOMS OF POISONING:
Acute symptoms of poisoning are severe gastro intestinal symptoms, spasms, loss of
consciousness, loss of sensitivity over the body and involvement of cardiac activity,
widening of the pupils, which do not react to light. In animals after injection of silver
compounds paralysis of the central nervous system and soon after death is o b -
served.
EMPIRICAL USES:
Silver was employed by the Arabian physicians against dropsy, but can also pro-
duce a fatal dropsy.
Silver nitrate has been used for several years as a dye for the hair.
The 200th or 1000th potency in watery solution as a topical application in ophthalmia
neonatorum has relieved when the crude silver nitrate failed.

toms. Hering noticed that certain characteristic symptoms are associated with the
indications of miasmic intercurrents and nosodes. Just as the homoeopath who works
with families of remedies recognizes the symptoms of the plant, mineral and animal
remedies, Hering recognized the characteristics of the nosode family picture. These
characteristics includes indications of the miasms concomitant to lack of vital reac-
tion to well chosen remedies; constant changing of symptoms after administering
remedies; fragmented pictures of several constitutional remedies and one-sided mi-
asmic pathology with few characteristic symptoms.
Such individuals often have a sense of being tainted, guilty, dirty or feel like life
is a burden, they never feel comfortable or satisfied in any environment, they have
discolored complexions and a look of suffering in the face when relaxed, and they
are prone to self-destructive impulses, cravings and habits. A differential analysis of
the rest of the mental and general symptoms will immediately uncover which chronic
miasm and therapeutic nosode is at the root of the picture.
Making a comparative study of the plant, mineral, animal and nosode group
symptoms is very helpful. The symptoms of the nosode group are indications to
study the case from the miasmic point of view. From a study of the totality of the
available symptoms one can uncover which miasm is active or which nosode the vital
force is calling to one’s attention. At such a time an intercurrent may be useful in
removing obstructions to the cure or bringing out a clearer picture. All miasmic
intercurrents should be complemented by constitutional remedies at the appropriate
time to complete the cure.
One’s attention may be called to the use of a nosode when the patient no longer
progresses under the influence of a constitutional remedy because well chosen rem-
edies do not act, hold or only change the symptoms. Another important indication for
the nosodes is a 'never well since syndrome' when it can be traced to a chronic
miasm such as suppressed gonorrhea or a suppressed skin disorder, etc. A miasmic
block in the case can also produce one-sided states with a lack of symptoms yet the
general history or indication of the miasms is in the background.
The nosode group characteristics are a signal to investigate the chronic mi-
asms and map their signs and symptoms as well as looking closely for the symptoms
of the major nosodes and anti-miasmic remedies. Normally one will find objective
signs and subjective symptoms that will individualize the remedy if it is indicated.
Over the years the use of nosodes as chronic intercurrents has proved of assistance
to constitutional treatment if used correctly.
I would advise students of Homoeopathy to study the use of chronic remedies
deeply and integrate intercurrent remedies carefully into practice when needed to
assist the cure. The isopathic concept seems so easy (using the same against the
same) that many star-struck beginners think they have found a short-cut way to do
Homoeopathy. They do not have enough experience in the more traditional approach
to Homoeopathy to understand those special moments when intercurrents are comple-
mentary to constitutional treatment. Others are prone to falling into old allopathic
thinking combined with new homeopathic remedies. This leads to the abuse of idem
in potency and can cause the disruption of the constitutional state. In the name of
treating layers, removing drugs and blockages, some practitioners give too many
remedies by idem while ignoring the totality of the symptoms of the patient.
Nine Ways to Administer the Nosodes :-
1. The first indication for the nosodes is when the mentals, physical generals and
particular symptoms are characteristic of the proving of the remedy. This makes the
nosode a CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDY. An example of this would be the use of
393
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
Syphilinum in a person who fears the night because of the suffering it brings, fears
going insane, despairs of recovery, has delusions that they are dirty, tainted, or
impure causing them to compulsively wash their hands, etc. The symptoms confirm
both the miasmic diagnosis and the simillimum. In such cases the derangement of
the vital force occurs in such a manner that it takes the symptoms of the nosode. In
some cases this state may or may not be directly linkable to the corresponding
miasma. Others are born with this tendency due to the inherited miasms.
2. when WELL CHOSEN REMEDIES DO NOT ACT, HOLD, OR JUST CHANGE THE
SYMPTOMS. This is usually caused by the chronic miasms such as psora, sycosis,
pseudopsora, and syphilis. This is one of the reasons why it is important to know
what miasms are in the background of a constitutional syndrome. Otherwise the
prescriber may think they are choosing the wrong remedies and further confuse the
situation by picking more and more new ones. An example of this usage of a nosode
is Psorinum's keynotes: Lack of reaction; when well-chosen remedies fail to act,
especially in those who are extremely sensitive to cold, suffer from profuse sweating,
filthy smell, dirty looking skin, and tend to be very pessimistic about their recovery,
etc. Another example of this rubric is Tuberculinum's keynote: When symptoms are
constantly changing and well-selected remedies do not improve, especially in those
who have light complexion, narrow chest, lax fiber, low recuperative powers and
constantly catch cold. There may also be fear of cats, dogs, and animals in general,
a desire to travel, and a deep discontented state with a tendency to curse, swear,
and a desire to break things, etc.
3. when there is a LACK OF SYMPTOMS. There are times when there are very few
symptoms by which to prescribe. These are often one-sided cases where a strong
inherited or acquired miasm has repressed the ability of the constitution to show
symptoms. Other than the signs related to the pathology of one or another of the
miasms, the symptoms in these cases are not very characteristic of any chronic
remedies. This may be a chronic state caused by a miasmic dyscrasia. Vide the
discussion of Tuberculinum in Kent's Lectures: "It seems from looking over the record
of many cures that this remedy has been given many times for just that state on a
paucity of symptoms, and if the records can be believed, it has many times balanced
up to the constitution in that anemic state, where the inheritance has been phthisis. It
is not the best indication for Tuberc., but where the symptoms agree in addition to
that inheritance, then you may have indication for the remedy.". There are two things
that may happen after the ingestion of a nosode for such a condition. First of all, the
symptoms may improve and bring the constitution toward the state of health. Second,
the symptoms of the patient may become more plentiful as the suspended layers
within the constitution become more active. The new state allows the homoeopathic
practitioner to prescribe a chronic remedy based on the newly arising syndrome and
advance the case forward.
4. when a person has not recovered from a miasmic infection, and its suppression.
This state is called "THE NEVER WELL SINCE SYNDROME" (NWS). An example of
this condition is the use of Medorrhinum in a person who has a history of sycosis
from which they have never recovered. Perhaps a new layer of disease has been
added to their constitution by a suppressed gonorrhea that changed both their physi-
cal health and personality. They no longer manifest the symptoms of a constitutional
remedy because the acquired miasm has become the active layer and suppressed
their natural temperament. Once they may have been of sharp intellect, clear memory,
and of a calm nature, but all that has changed for the worse. Now they have become
very hurried as if time passes too slowly, they can't follow the thread of a conversa-
394
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
tion because they are losing their memory, and they've become fearful of the dark,
superstitious, and suffer from delusions that someone or something is always behind
them. This last symptom is very indicative of the paranoid suspicious state of sycosis
as it represents a subconscious fear that something is going on "behind their back"
and is about to "get them".
The never-well-since syndrome can also be applied to acute miasms. There are
times when a person has never fully recovered from an acute illness or miasm. The
unresolved acute state still has an effect on the vital force as it has formed a layer
within the constitution. If this imbalance is strong it will become the dominant layer
and repress the older weaker symptoms. This is often caused by acute miasms like
influenza, diphtheria, measles, mononucleosis, and whooping cough from which the
patient never really recovered. Of course, a proper chronic remedy may remove the
effects of an unresolved acute miasm, but when it does not, a nosode of the offend-
ing miasm will often cure. Nosodes for these acute miasms are available from
homoeopathic pharmacies under names like Influenzinum, Diphtherinum, Morbillinum,
Pertussin, etc.
5. WHEN PARTIAL PICTURES OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES MANIFEST
YET NO ONE REMEDY COMPLETELY FITS THE CASE. Such cases seem to be
fragmented and disorganized, but in actuality, this pattern is characteristic of the
miasms and nosode group. An investigation of the miasms behind the fragmented
picture may reveal the symptoms of the nosode family. Differential analysis will quickly
show which miasm is involved and what nosode may remove the state. Such an
intercurrent often improves the state of health and regularizes the natural symptoms
pattern. After the nosode has done all it can do the symptoms will point more clearly
toward a constitutional or anti-miasmic remedy. In this way a nosode can bring order
out of chaos and clarity out of confusion.
6. WHEN A MIASMIC LAYER OBSTRUCTS THE PROGRESS OF A CONSTITU-
TIONAL REMEDY that was improving the patient. This use of a nosode is called a
miasmic intercurrent. Suppose one has a patient whose symptoms point to an inher-
ited pseudopsoric miasm and the case works out to fit Pulsatilla perfectly. This is all
coherent because Pulsatilla is a strongly anti-tuberculin medicine as well as the
individual's constitutional remedy. After several months of solid improvement the pa-
tient begins to relapse with the same symptoms, and to one's great surprise, the
Pulsatilla no longer works. Although there is no change of symptoms calling for a new
remedy, the old remedy has become completely ineffective. If the underlying symp-
tomatology shows the tubercular miasm, the homoeopath can try to unlock the blocked
case with a tubercular nosode, such as Tuberculinum. In the above example the
tubercular nosode sets the stage for the reintroduction of the Pulsatilla by re-sensitiz-
ing the vital force.
Two things may happen after the introduction of the miasmic intercurrent. The nosode
may move the case forward by removing the active symptoms. When this happens it
is best to stay with the nosode as long as the improvement lasts. If this improvement
ceases the remaining symptoms may be treated with the former chronic remedy. If
the patient does not show any improvement on the nosode after a sufficient amount
of time, the former chronic remedy should be re-introduced. Under these conditions
the previous remedy often acts just as dramatically as it did the first time it was given.
This effect has been witnessed by many experienced homoeopaths over and over
again. Although the miasmic intercurrent may not radically improve the case by
itself, it can cause the patient to become re-sensitized to their original constitutional
remedy. There are times when this technique is extremely useful.

The twelve inorganic salts found in the ashes of the body- all essential to the
proper growth & development of the every cell, tissue, organ & part of the body.
They are the,
1. Phosphates of lime, Calcarea Phosphorica.
2. Phosphates of iron, Ferrum Phosphoricum.
3. Phosphates of potash, Kali phosphoricum
4. Phosphates of soda, Natrum Phosphoricum
5. Phosphates of magnesia, Magnesis Phosphorica
5. Chlorides of potash, Kali Muriaticum
6. Chlorides of soda, Natrum Muriaticum
7. Sulphates of lime, Calcarea Sulphurica
8. Sulphates of soda, Natrum Sulphurica
10. Sulphates of potash, Kali sulphuricum
11. Flouride of potash, Calcarea flourica
12. Pure silica, Silicea
They are the tissue builders, therefore, & both the structure & vitality of the
body depend upon their proper quantity & distribution in every cells wherever needed.
A loss of the power of union with organic matter of any of the inorganic salts of
a tissue produces an altered or abnormal condition, which is termed disease. Pro-
fessor Virchow, the greatest authority on cellular diseases & cancer-cells, clearly
states that the definition of all the disease resolves itself into this:” An altered or
changed state of cell.” To overcome this condition, Dr. Schuessler supplies the same
cell-salts, finely triturated, in fresh, active form. This fresh cell-salt then unites with
organic matter & the cell is restored to normal condition.
Professor Liebig says:” It happens that a tissue in disease reaches such a
degree of density, becomes so clogged, that the salt solutions of the blood enter to
feed & nourish; but, if for therapeutic purposes a solution of the cell-salt be so
triturated, & given so diluted that all its molecules are set free, it is presumable that no
hindrance will be in the way of these molecules to enter the abnormally condensed
part of tissue.”
The body is made of cells. Different kinds of cells build up the different tissues &
organs of the body. The difference in the cells is largely determined by the kind of
inorganic salts which enter into their composition. If we burn the body, or any tissue
of it, we obtain the ashes. These are the inorganic constituents of the body, the salts
of iron, magnesia, lime, potassium, sodium, silica etc.
Chemical affinity here palsies a particular part, each salt, by virtue of that law
existing between organic & inorganic substances, finding its way into its particular
tissue where it is wanted. Under this law, nature cures; hence it becomes necessary
to administer these salts to the minute quantities. Thus refined , they can be taken up
by the cells so changed that they are no longer able to absorb the ordinary molecules
of salt out of the plasma. Hence it is follows that the ordinary preparations of cell-salts
given as medicines are too bulky; & Dr. Schuessler has formulated a Trituration of
the twelve constituents of the body in such form that they can pass through the
minute passages in the capillaries, & are readily assimilated by the cells of the blood
401

& tissues.
Each one of the twelve inorganic substances of which the human body is built
up, has its own sphere of function & curative action, by this reason of the part it
occupies in the cells and the part these have to perform in maintaining and restoring
health.
The maintenance of a stable metabolism within the cell is due to the presence of
these salts in the proper ratio in the fluid, which surrounds the cell.
Biochemic remedies are administered in minimal doses corresponding in minute-
ness to the cellular salts in the tissues.
Preparation of these biochemic mineral salts which is achieved by triturat-
ing with lactose.

faithfully registered all the disease elements and symptoms they are capable of de-
veloping as artificial disease-producers, them only have we a true materia medica—
a collection of real, pure, reliable modes of action of simple medicinal substances, a
volume of the book of nature, wherein is recorded a considerable array of the pecu-
liar changes of the health and symptoms ascertained to belong to each of the power-
ful medicines, as they were revealed to the attention of the observer, in which the
likeness of the (homoeopathic) disease elements of many natural diseases to be
hereafter cured by them are present."
3. The homoeopathic materia medica is a treasurehouse of remedies. It is our
armoury for fighting disease. Each weapon in this armamentarium is a highly so-
phisticated one. If it is used with skill and proficiency it can eradicate all possible
diseases of human race. If handled improperly, it can bring on irreparable mischief
to our sacred mission. It is, therefore, incumbent upon us to acquire a thorough
knowledge of the remedies of the materia medica. The only way to acquire that
knowledge is to read and reread the materia medica thoroughly and practise it faith-
fully according to the principles laid down in the Organon of Medicine.
SOURCES OF HOMOEOPATHIC MATERIA MEDICA:-
(O-05,09,10)(M-05,06,07,10)
The plants used in rituals and worships were used as medicinalfollowed
after the study of their other virtues. Most of these plants have proved their useful-
ness as medicinal substances.
Example :- Attention to Leptandra virginica (St. VEronica’s flower) was drawn be-
cause of its distant resemblance to Christ’s face.
1. Plant experimentation :- By doing provings on plants, we can study botanical
chages including its morphology and histology. From this study get some idea of the
pathological changes on human produced by the drug. Thuja has been proved on
plants.
2. Clinical experience :- These are the drug effect which were observed on the
sick and have not been obtained proving of a drug on healthy human being.
3. Biochemistry :- It gives information about the biochemical actions of sub-
stances. The knowledge derived from biochemical study about the curative power of
a drug deals with the sphere of action of drugs on one or two systems and organs.
4. Chemistry :- It is the science dealing with the intimate constitution of sub-
stances, the elements and their mutual reactions and the phenomena resulting from
the formation and decomposition of compounds. The rules of chemistry has been
applied in the treatment of human disease.
5. Doctrine of signature :- Father of this doctrine was no ordinary person but
Paracelsus (1443-1541).
6. Healthy proving :- This is the most rational source of acquiring knowledge
about the drug-effects. Albert von Haller was the first person who practised drug
proving on healthy human being. Then Hahnemann came the drug proving in reality.
It has given the most exhaustive and complete knowledge about each drug which has
been completely proved.

show clearly the symptomatic trend of the patient which must be diagnostic of both
the disease and the remedy. Thus Materia Medica reveals what the repertory fails to
complete.
DIFFERENT WAYS OF STUDYING THE MATERIA MEDICA :-
(M-11)
Picture type :-
Picture study provides a larger field of flexibility both for drug pathogenesis and
symptoms syndrome of sick individuals.
The representation of the drug picture is discusses in such a way from where a
physician can easily forms the true and only conceivable portrait of the diseased
individual.
Dr. Kent’s writings are the best examples of picture presentation.
Therapeutic study :-
Here the drug symptoms are studied under the healing of different diseases. As
for example, under the chapter “Fever” various drugs are discussed.
Anatomical study :-
In this type of study, it is very difficult to pick up the valuable symptoms and their
intrinsic worth. It is because the real unexpected deviations are lost sight of due to its
fragmental study. Here drug is studied organwise, like mind, head, nose, ear, abdo-
men and extremities.
This method was followed by Dr. C.F.S. Hahnemann & Dr. Richard Hughes .
Physiological Study :-
In this type, the drug is studied in the healing as to how it acts in the system. In
this type the holestic approach is lost.
This method was followed by Dr. William Burt.
Key-note study :-
The characteristic symptoms of each drug is presented in this type of study.
This has been done in order to make the study of Materia Medica short, synthetic
and comprehensive.
This method was followed by Dr. H.C. Allen and Dr. W.J. Guernsey.
Combined study :-
This type of study, accepted by student, physician and homoeolover also. This
is the true and complete materia medica because a drug is represented from the
various angle at a time with holestic miasmatic approach and repertory.

Geophagy and Trepanning were probably practiced by prehistoric peoples
Geophagy refers to eating soil-like or earthy substances, such as chalk and clay.
Animals and humans have done this for hundreds of thousands of years. In Western
and industrialized societies geophagy is related to pica, an eating disorder.
Prehistoric humans probably had their first medicinal experiences through eat-
ing earths and clays. They may have copied animals, observing how some clays,
when ingested, may have had healing qualities. Some clays are useful for treating
wounds. Several aboriginal peoples worldwide use clay externally and internally for
the treatment of cuts and wounds.
Trepanning - drilling a hole into the human skull for the treatment of health
problems. There is evidence that since Neolithic times, humans have been boring
holes into people's heads in an attempt to cure diseases or free the victim of demons
and evil spirits.

According to cave paintings, anthropologists believe that they were used in an
attempt to cure people of mental disorders, migraines and epileptic seizures, frac-
tured skulls.
The extracted bone may have been kept by the patient as a good-luck charm.
Medicine men, also known as witch-doctors or shamans existed in some prehistoric
communities. They were in charge of their tribe's health and gathered plant based
medications, mainly herbs and roots, carried out rudimentary surgical procedures,
casting spells and charms.

Ancient Egyptian doctors knew that the body had a pulse, and that it was asso-
ciated with the function of the heart. They had a very basic knowledge of a cardiac
system, but overlooked the phenomenon of blood circulating around the body - either
because they missed it, or thought it did not matter, they were unable to distinguish
blood vessels, nerves, or tendons.
High standard of living gave them free time, which they could use for observing
things and thinking about them. Medical research involves patience and observation.
The Channel Theory - It came by observing farmers who dug out irrigations
channels for their crops. They believed that as in irrigation, channels provided the
body with routes for good health. If the channels became blocked, they would use
laxatives to unblock them.
They thought the heart was the center of 46 channels - types of tubes.Our
veins, arteries, and even our intestines are types of tubes to certain. The Gods were
the creators and controllers of life, the Egyptians thought. They believed conception
was done by the god Thoth, while Bes, another god, decided whether childbirth went
smoothly. Blockages in the human "channels" were thought to be the result of the evil
doings of Wehedu, an evil spirit.
The channel theory allowed medicine to move from entirely spiritual cures for
diseases and disorders, towards practical ones. Many medical historians say this
change was a major turning point, a breakthrough in the history of medicine.
They advised people to wash and shave their bodies as measures to prevent infec-
tions. They told people to eat carefully, and to avoid unclean animals and raw fish.
Some of their practices were bizarre and most likely did more harm than good.
Several medical prescriptions contained animal dung, which might have useful molds
and fermentation substances, but were also infested with bacteria and must have
caused many serious infections.
Ancient Egyptian medicine was highly advanced for its time.
Egyptian doctors were sought after by kings and queens from faraway lands
because they were considered as the best in the world.
Archeologists have found Papyri (thick paper-like material produced from the
pith of the papyrus plant) where Egyptians had documented a vast amount of medi-
cal knowledge. They found that they had fairly good knowledge about bone structure,
and were aware of some of the functions of the brain and liver.
The Ebers Papyrus are medical documents which are thought to have been written
around 1500 BC, likely include materials dating back to 3400 BC. It is a 20-meter
long scroll, which covers the equivalent of approximately 100 pages. The Ebers
Papyrus, along with the Edwin Smith Papyrus, are the oldest preserved medical
documents in existence.

Georg Moritz Ebers (1837-1898), a German novelist and Egyptologist,
discovered this medical papyrus at Thebes (Luxor) in 1873-74. It is now in the Li-
brary of the University of Leipzig, Germany.
The Ebers Papyrus was has over 700 remedies and magical formulae, as well
as scores of incantations aimed at repelling demons which cause disease. However,

Hippocrates was the first to describe and properly document several diseases
and disorders. Hippocrates was first to make a detailed description of clubbing of
the fingers, a hallmark sign of chronic suppurative lung disease, cyanotic heart
disease, and lung cancer.The Hippocratic Face - is a description of a face just
before death. It is a prognostic description, made by Hippocrates:
facial appearance may be described as-- nose sharp, the eyes sunken, the
temples fallen in, the ears cold and drawn in and their lobes distorted, the skin of the
face hard, stretched and dry, the colour of the face pale or dusky , if there is no
improvement, it’s sign of death.
Hippocrates and his school were the first to use the following terms for illnesses
and patients' conditions: Acute, Chronic, Endemic, Epidemic, Convalescence, Cri-
sis, Exacerbation, Paroxysm, Peak, Relapse, Resolution,etc.
How Aristotle and Plato influenced medical practice and research
Two famous Greek philosophers, Aristotle (384 BC - 322 BC) and Plato (424/423 BC
- 348/347 BC) came to the conclusion that the human body had no use in the
afterlife.
This new way of thinking spread and influenced Greek doctors, who at Alexan-
dria, Egypt, started dissecting dead bodies and studying them. Sometimes even
bodies of live criminals were cut open. It was through this kind of research that the
surgeon Herophilus (335-280 BC) came to the conclusion that it was not the heart
that controlled the movement of limbs, but the brain.
Erasistratus (304 BC - 250 BC) found out that blood moves through the veins.
Aristotle's and Plato's philosophies, writings and speeches made the Greeks to
find out about the inside of the human body in a systematic way.
Thucydides (circa 460 BC - circa 395 BC), a Greek historian, often called the
"Father of Scientific History".He added that epilepsy had a scientific explanation.
Thycydides wrote, 'History of the Peloponnesian War'in which he tried to de-
scribe plague scientifically.
At that time, everybody thought that natural matter was made of four basic
elements - earth, water, air and fire. It was not long that this theory gave them the
idea that the human body consisted of the four humors, and that keeping those
humors in balance was essential for good health. This theory survived for nearly
2,000 years (up to 1700 AD).
The four humors in the human body were:Blood,Phlegm,Yellow bile,Black bile.
According to Hippocrates in “The Constitution of Man", these four humors make
up a human body through them he feels illness or enjoys health. When all the humors
are properly balanced and mingled, he feels the most perfect health. Illness occurs
when one of the humors is in excess, or is reduced in amount, or is entirely missing
from the body."
Greek states war gave doctors vast experience in practical first aid and be-
came skilled experts.
Greek doctors were good at setting broken bones and fixing dislocated ones.
They could even cure a slipped disc.
In ancient Egypt, the Greeks had no anesthetics so impossible to perform sur-

known as Unani medicine. The UCLA and Yale Universities in the USA still teach
some of the principles described in this work as part of the history of medicine
curriculum.
It contains some of the most illuminating thoughts pertaining to distinction of
mediastinitis from pleurisy; contagious nature of phthisis; distribution of diseases by
water and soil; careful description of skin troubles; of sexual diseases and perver-
sions; of nervous ailments."
The Canon mentions how new medicines should be tested.The active ingredient
must be pure.
The drug must be used on just one simple disease, not a cluster of diseases.
Test the medication on two contrary types of diseases. Sometimes the essential
qualities of a drug may treat one disease effectively, while curing another by acci-
dent.
A medication's quality must match the severity of the disease.
The whole process must be timed carefully, so that the drug's action is clearly
noted.The medication's efficacy must be consistent, with similar results after experi-
menting with many patients.
Testing must be done on humans, not animals.
Ibn Sina's views on psychology and mental illness were more practical and
scientific.
Medieval Islam's contribution to human anatomy and physiology
Ibn al-Nafi, an Arab physician born in Damascus in 1213, is thought to be the first
person ever to describe the pulmonary circulation of blood. Medical historians be-
lieve he probably did his research on animals.
According to Galen, blood reached from left ventricle in the heart to the right
ventricle through invisible passages in the septum. Al-Nafi believed this was wrong.
According to Al-Nafi
"The blood from the right chamber of the heart must arrive at the left chamber
but there is no direct pathway between them. The blood from the right chamber must
flow through the vena arteriosa (pulmonary artery) to the lungs, spread through its
substances, be mingled there with air, pass through the arteria venosa (pulmonary
vein) to reach the left chamber of the heart and there form the vital spirit.
Ibn al-Haytham (Al-hazen in Latin) (965-c. 1040), an Iraqi Muslim scientist,
explained scientifically that the eye is an optical instrument. He described the anatomy
of the eye and later formed theories on image formation. Al-haytham's Book of
Optics became widely read throughout Europe until the 17th century.
Ahmad ibn Abi al-Ash'ath, an Iraqi doctor, described how a full stomach dilates
and then contracts after experimenting on live lions. al-Ash'ath preceded William
Beaumont by nearly 900 years in carrying out experiments in gastric physiology.
Abd al-Latif al-Baghdadi (1162-1231), a famous Iraqi physician said that( Galen
was wrong to say that the lower jaw consists of two parts) the lower jaw (mandible)
consists of just one bone. He wrote"Book of Instruction and Admonition on the Things
Seen end Events Recorded in the Land of Egypt".
Sadly, Al-Badhdadi's observation was ignored.

European history which started at the time of the fall of the Western Roman Empire,
until the birth of the Renaissance period and the Age of Discovery. The Middle Ages
is divided into three periods - the Early, High and Late Middle Ages. The Early Middle
Ages are also known as the Dark Ages. Many historians, especially Renaissance
scholars, viewed the Middle Ages as a period of stagnation.
The Renaissance period (1400s to 1700s). followed the Middle Ages.
Around 500 AD, Barbarians invaded much of Western Europe. Scientific theo-
ries or ideas rarely had the chance to travel, because communication between
fiefdoms(small territories) was poor and perilous. In many places, monks were the
only people who knew how to read and write. Greek and Roman medical records and
literature disappeared. Fortunately, Muslim cities in the Middle East had translated
most of them and kept them in their centers of learning.
Life was dominated by the Catholic Church Politics, lifestyles, beliefs and thoughts
were dominated by the Roman Catholic Church. People were Christians and be-
lieved in the Christian God.
Towards the end of the tenth century, around 1066, things began to change.
The University of Oxford (1167), the University of Paris (1110)was born. As the
monarchs became owners of more territory, their wealth grew, and their courts be-
came centers of culture. Towns began to form, and with them many public health
problems. Trade grew rapidly after 1100.
When the Mongols destroyed Baghdad, fleeing scholars managed to take docu-
ments and books with them to the west.
Medical stagnation in the Middle Ages in Europe--
Much medical knowledge from the Roman and Greek civilizations was lost,
consequently the quality of medical practitioners was poor. The Catholic Church did
not allow corpses to be dissected; people were encouraged to pray and fear the
consequences of not doing as they were told, or thinking differently from Church
teachings.
Friction developed between the Church and medical practitioners who used
incantations as well as Greek, Roman and Islamic methods. Throughout the great
civilizations that had preceded the Middle Ages, spells and incantations had per-
sisted, and were used together with herbal and other remedies. The Church insisted
that these magical rituals be replaced with Christian prayers and devotions.
Research, development, and observation gave way to an authoritarian system
which undermined scientific thinking. There was no money for public health sys-
tems. Fiefdoms were at war with each other most of the time.
The authoritarian Church made people believe blindly in what Galen had written.
The Church also encouraged people to turn to their saints when seeking treatment
and cures for diseases and ailments.
Many people ended up thinking that illness was a punishment from God, and
saw no point in trying to find cures. They were taught that repentance for their sins
might save them. The practice of penance was born, as well as pilgrimages as a way
of finding a cure for illnesses.
Some devout Christian felt that to practice medicine was not a profession a
608

faithful person and is move against God.They believed God sent illnesses and cures
depending on his will.
Interpretation of Church teachings varied enormously throughout Western Eu-
rope. Some monks, such as the Benedictines, did care for the sick and saw this as a
Christian duty, and devoted their lives to that.
Some Christians did come into contact with eminent doctors. During the Cru-
sades, many Christians travelled to the Middle East, and learnt about scientific medi-
cine.
During the 12th century, many medical books and documents were translated
from Arabic. Islamic scholars had translated most of the Greek and Roman texts.
Avicenna's The Canon of Medicine, which included details on Greek, Indian
and Muslim medicine was translated and became essential reading throughout Western
European centers of learning for several centuries. Several other major texts which
originated from Hippocrates, Galen, and others were also translated.
Medieval medicine and the theory of Humors
Humorism was a theory put forward by the ancient Egyptians, and then formally
reviewed and adopted by Greeks scholars and physicians; it was then taken up by
Roman, Medieval Islamic and European doctors, and prevailed right up until the 19th
century. The theory, which lasted two thousand years, is now discredited.
Believers in humorism said that human health is driven by four different bodily
fluids - humors - which influence our health. They have to be in perfect balance. This
theory is said to have come from Hippocrates and scholars from his school. A humor
was also known as a cambium (plural: cambia/cambiums).
The four humors were (with their links to seasons, organs, temper, and elemen.
1) Black bile
Linked to (temper) melancholy, (organ) the spleen, (nature) cold dry, and (ele-
ment) earth
2) Yellow bile
Linked to (temper) phlegmatic, (organ) the lungs, (nature) cold wet, and (ele-
ment( water
3) Phlegm
Linked to (temper) sanguine, (organ) the head, (nature) warm wet, and (ele-
ment) air
4) Blood
Linked to (temper) choleric, (organ) gallbladder, (nature) warm dry, and (ele-
ment) fire.
All diseases and disorders are caused by too much or not enough of one of
these humors. An imbalance of humors could be caused by inhaling or absorbing
vapors. Medical establishments believed that levels of these humors would fluctuate
in the body, depending on what we ate, drank, inhaled, and what we had been doing.
Humor imbalances not would only cause physical problems, but changes in the
person's personality as well.
Lung problems were caused by too much phlegm in the body - the body's
natural reaction was to cough it up. Restoring the right balance required blood-letting

Paracelsus wrote about the treatment and prevention strategies for metalwork-
ers, as well as detailing their occupational hazards.
Leonardo Da Vinci's drawings of the heart and its blood vessels
Leonardo Da Vinci (1452 - 1519), from Italy, considered by many to have been a
genius. Da Vinci was a polymath - somebody who was expert in several different
fields. Da Vinci was a painter, sculptor, scientist, engineer, mathematician, musi-
cian, anatomist, inventor, cartographer, botanist, geologist and writer.
Anatomy - Da Vinci rapidly became an expert in topographic anatomy, and
drew several studies of tendons, muscles, bones, and other features of the human
body. The Hospital of Santa Maria Nuova, Florence, allowed him to dissect human
corpses, as did some other hospitals in Milan and Rome. He worked with doctor
Marcantonio della Torre and drew over 200 pages of illustrations with notes about the
human anatomy.
The papers were bequeathed to Francesco Melzi on condition that he published
them. Melzi found this to be a monumental task, firstly because there were so many
of them, and also because Da Vinci's writings were "idiosyncratic". The papers were
finally published in France in 1632.
Da Vinci not only drew body parts in great detail, he also studied the mechani-
cal functions of bones and how the muscles made them move - he is said to have
been one of the first researchers of biomechanics.
Ambroise Paré (1510 - 1590), from France, viewed by many as one of the
fathers of modern forensic pathology and surgery. He was the Royal Surgeon for
four French Kings. Paré was incredibly skilled in surgical techniques, and a re-
nowned expert in battlefield medicine, particularly the effective treatment of wounds.
Several surgical instruments were invented by Paré.
Famous quote of Pare’:
"Je le pansai, Dieu le guérit"
I bandaged him and God healed him.
Paré once treated a group of wounded patients in two ways - cauterization and
with boiled elderberry oil. However, he ran out of oil and treated the rest of the
second group with turpentine, oil of roses, and egg yolk. When he saw his patients
the following day, he noticed that the ones treated with turpentine had recovered,
while those who had been administered the boiling oil were still in severe pain. He
immediately realized how effective turpentine was in treating wounds and aban-
doned cauterization from that moment onwards.
Paré also revived the Greek method of ligature of the arteries during amputa-
tion, instead of cauterization. This method significantly improved survival rates. This
was seen as a considerable breakthrough in surgical practice, despite it being a
serious source of infection. He believed that phantom pains, sometimes experienced
by amputees, were to do with something occurring in the brain, and not something
mysterious within the amputated limb.
Pandemics and epidemics thrived during the Renaissance-

world. While this was good for wealth and many people's standards of living, it also

exposed them to pathogens from faraway lands. The Black Death, often referred to
as The Plague, started off in Asia, and made its way westward, hitting Western and
Mediterranean Europe in 1348. Medical historians believe Italian merchants brought
it to Europe when they fled the fighting in Crimea.
The Great Plague of London killed over 100,000 people, an example of plague
recurrence in Europe.
The Black Death - Over a period of six years about one-third of Europe's popu-
lation perished; approximately 25 million people. In city suburbs the plague is thought
to have killed over two-thirds of residents. Historians say the Mongols catapulted
dead bodies over Kaffa's walls (in the Crimea); the aim being to infect enemy sol-
diers. This is probably the first example of biological warfare. Many believe that this
action started off the spread of infection into Europe.
The plague did not just come and go away for ever. It kept coming back and
caused devastation in several areas right up to the 17th century.
Infections and the New World - deadly influenza, measles and smallpox were
not viruses that circulated in the Americas before the Spanish explorers came. Native
Americans had no immunity against such diseases.
When Christopher and his men arrived in the Caribbean in 1492, the area
became ridden with deadly epidemics. Within 20 years, the population of Hispaniola,
an island, dropped from 250,000 to less than 6,000 due to smallpox infections; within
five decades the indigenous population of the island was estimated to have fallen to
500.
The smallpox virus then made its way to the mainland, where it decimated the
Aztec population. Millions of people died from infections in South and Central America
during the first hundred years after Columbus' arrival. Historians say that over half of
Mexico's indigenous population had died by 1650.
Personal hygiene - during the Renaissance, bathing remained popular. It was
not until after this period that Europeans viewed water as a carrier of disease and the
Catholic Church started wondering about the immorality of public bathing. The Church
eventually banned public bathing in an attempt to stem the spread of syphilis.
Diagnosis and treatment of diseases during the Renaissance
Methods of diagnosis during the early Renaissance period were not very differ-
ent from what occurred during the Middle Ages. Physicians had no idea how to cure
infectious disease. When faced with the plague or syphilis they did not really know
what to do.
Ineffective desperate attempts at treating diseases also included superstitious
rites and magic. Even the King, Charles II, was asked to help out by touching sick
people in an attempt to cure them of scrofula. Scrofula was most likely a type of
tuberculosis.
Quinine was discovered in the New World and was used to treat malaria.
First example of Vaccination.
Edward Anthony Jenner (1749-1823) was an English doctor and scientists. He
is known as the pioneer of vaccinations, having created the smallpox vaccine. Medi-
cal historians call him the "Father of Immunology". His works are believed to have

would carry out a thorough physical exam of the patient. Many of their treatments
were also influenced by Greek practices. Roman diagnosis and treatment of patients
consisted of a combination of Greek medicine and some local practices.
Some Roman doctors were impressive in their claims. Galen said that by follow-
ing Greek practice he never misdiagnosed or made a wrong prognosis. Progress in
diagnosis, treatment and prognosis in Ancient Rome was slow and patchy.
Herbal medicines :
Fennel - was widely used for people with nervous disorders.
Unwashed wool - was used for sores.
Elecampane (horse heal) was given to patients with digestive problems.
Egg yolk - was given to patients with dysentery
Sage - said to have had more religious value, believed that the gods could heal them.
Garlic - doctors said garlic was good for the heart
Boiled liver - was administered to patients with sore eyes
Fenugreek - often administered to patients with lung diseases, especially pneumonia
Silphium - was used as a form of contraceptive, as well as for fever, cough, indiges-
tion, sore throat, aches and pains, warts. Nobody is sure what Silphium was; histori-
ans believe it is an extinct plant of the genus Ferula, possibly a variety of giant
fennel.
Willow - used as an antiseptic
Pedanius Dioscorides (circa 40-90 AD), was a Greek botanist, pharmacologist and
physician who practiced in Rome when Nero was ruler. He became a famous Ro-
man Army doctor. Dioscorides wrote a 5-volume encyclopedia - De Materia Medica
- which listed over 600 herbal cures. It also had a pharmacopeia. De Materia Medica
was used extensively by doctors for the following 1,500 years.
Galen said that opposites would often cure patients. For a cold he would give
the patient hot pepper. If a patient had a fever, he advised doctors to use cucumber.
The Romans believed in public health
Public health is all about maintaining the whole community in good health, and
today involves preventing the spread of disease, vaccination programs, promoting
healthy lifestyles and good eating habits, building hospitals, providing clean water for
people to drink and wash themselves, etc. The Romans were strong believers in
public health. They knew that hygiene was vital to prevent the spread of diseases.
They promoted facilities for personal hygiene in a big way by building public
baths, toilets and sewage systems. Although their focus was on maintaining a moti-
vated and healthy army, their citizens also benefited.
Public baths - there were nine public baths in Rome alone. Each one had pools
of varying temperatures. Some of them had gyms and massage rooms. Government
inspectors enforced high hygiene standards vigorously.
Hospitals - hospitals started in Ancient Rome. The first ones were built to treat
soldiers and veterans.
The Romans were aware of the link between swamps and mosquitoes and the
diseases they could transmit to humans.

MODERN MEDICINE
Introduction- Economic activity grew rapidly during the 18th Century in West-
ern Europe and the America.During the 19th century economic and industrial growth
was enormous; it was also a period of scientific discovery and invention.
Old ideas of infectious disease epidemiology made way to virology and bacte-
riology. Microbiology a science started with Antonie Philips van Leeuwenhoek (1632
- 1723), who first observed microorganisms with a microscope.
Enormous developments were made in identifying and preventing illnesses.
However, one problem still persisted, and that was treating and curing infectious
diseases.
During the 19th century the world changed dramatically.Various work-related
diseases, such as "phossy jaw" , lung diseases and dermatitis came to light.
Ignaz Semmelweis (1818-1865) brought down the childbed fever death rate
among new mothers by insisting that doctors wash their hands before touching women
during childbirth. A British surgeon Joseph Lister in 1865proved the principles of
antisepsis in wound treatment. It was great challenge to convince all the "conserva-
tive" doctors.
Cities started to grow rapidly.Typhus and cholera became more common.
Some European countries had empires, including the UK, Spain, Portugal, France
and some others. People travelled to and from various parts of the world, bringing
back with them various diseases, such as yellow fever.
Scientific breakthroughs appeared all over Europe and the Americas, including
the electrocardiograph.
Postal services and communications in general improved, allowing medical knowl-
edge to spread rapidly.
Democracy grew in several countries in Europe and the Americas. This led to
people demanding health as a human right.
Innovative scientists advanced forward like Charles Darwin (evolution) and Gregor
Johann Mendel (genetics).
As technology developed, wars became more devastating, causing mass inju-
ries, which required new surgical and medical techniques.
Louis Pasteur
Louis Pasteur (1822-1895), a chemist and microbiologist from France, is known
as one of the founders of medical microbiology. After working for several years as a
teacher in Strasbourg and Dijon, he became professor of chemistry at the University
of Lille in 1854.
Pasteur demonstrated that bacteria caused the souring of wine and beer, and
later on showed that a similar process occurred in milk. He also explained that by
boiling and the cooling a liquid, such as milk, the bacteria could be removed. The
process of pasteurization comes from his surname.
He then set out to determine where these bacteria originated from, and eventu-
ally proved that they came from the environment. Initially he got opposed but in 1864,

hygiene standards were shocking, and there were mass infections. There was noth-
ing to process food for the patients; no equipment at all.
She sent a pleas to The Times asking the government to do something about
the atrocious conditions in Scutari. A prefabricated hospital was built in England and
transported to the Dardenelles. When it was built it was called the Renkioi Hospital,
which had a death rate 90% lower than what existed before in Scutari.
The presence of Nightingale and her team of nurses resulted in a significant
drop in the mortality rate of wounded soldiers.
In 1860 Nightingale founded the Nightingale Training School for nurses at St
Thomas' Hospital, London. It was the first secular nursing school in the world. Nurses
who trained there worked all over the UK, and spread what they had learnt.
Her book Notes of Nursing was published in 1860. In it she stressed the impor-
tance of sanitation and hygiene, good hospital planning, and the best ways to achieve
optimum military health - many of her practices are still in force today.
Nightingale reduced death rates from 42% to 2%, according to the 1911 edi-
tion of the Dictionary of National Biography.
The arrival of Florence Nightingale is seen as a turning point for women in the
medical profession. Before she came onto the scene, women in hospital and medical
settings possibly worked as midwives, cleaning ladies and sitters.
19th century Timeline of medical milestones
1800 - Humphry Davy (1778- 1829), a British chemist and inventor, described how
nitrous oxide (laughing gas) has anesthetic properties.
1816 - Rene Laennec (1781-1826), a French doctor, invented the stethoscope.
He also pioneered stethoscope use in diagnosing chest infections.
1818 - James Blundell (1791-1878) was a British obstetrician. He performed
the first successful blood transfusion on a patient who had a hemorrhage.
1842 - Crawford Long (1815 -1878), an American pharmacist and surgeon,
now recognized as the first doctor to have used inhaled ether anesthesia on a patient
for a surgical procedure.
1847 - Ignaz Semmelweis (1818 -1865), a Hungarian doctor, known as the
savior of mothers. He found that childbed fever (puerperal fever) incidence could be
considerably reduced if doctors, midwives and nurses disinfected their hands before
touching the mother during childbirth or a miscarriage. Childbed fever was common
in the 19th century; between 10% and 35% of mothers who became infected died.
1849 - Elizabeth Blackwell (1821-1910), an American, was the first woman to
become a fully qualified doctor in the USA, and also the first female to be on the UK
Medical Register. Blackwell dedicated much of her time to promoting the education
of women in medicine.
1867 - Joseph Lister, 1st Baron Lister OM, FRS, PC (1827-1912), a British
surgeon and a pioneer of antiseptic surgery. He introduced phenol (then known as
carbolic acid) successfully to clean wounds as well as sterilizing surgical instru-
ments. His work contributed greatly towards a reduction in post-operative infections.
He published a book Antiseptic Principle of the Practice of Surgery, which was
strongly influenced by Louis Pasteur's work.

1870 - The Germ Theory of Disease is established by Louis Pasteur and Rob-
ert Koch.
1879 - Louis Pasteur produced the first laboratory-developed vaccine - the
vaccine for chicken cholera.
1881 - An anthrax vaccine developed by Louis Pasteur. Pasteur made a public
demonstration with 50 sheep. He tested his vaccine, created by attenuating the
anthrax bacterium with carbolic acid. All the 25 unvaccinated sheep died, while only
one of the vaccinated ones perished, which was probably due to a miscarriage.
1882 - The first rabies vaccine. Louis Pasteur managed to prevent rabies in
Joseph Meister, a 9-year old boy, by post-exposure vaccination.
1890 - Emil von Behring Emil Adolf von Behring (1854-1917), a German physi-
ologist, discovered antitoxins and utilized them to develop diphtheria and tetanus
vaccines. He received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine; the first time the
prize was ever awarded.
1895 - Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (1845-1923), a German physicist. He pro-
duced and detected electromagnetic radiation in a wavelength range; what we call
today Röntgen rays or X-rays. In 1901 he received the Nobel Prize in Physics. The
International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry named element 111, Roentgenium
after him.
1897 - Aspirin was invented. Chemists working in the German company Bayer
AG produced a synthetic version of salicin, which was derived from the species
Filipendula ulmaria (meadowsweet). This synthetically altered version was easier on
the stomach than pure salicylic acid. Bayer says that the invention of aspirin should
be attributed to Felix Hoffmann; however, Arthur Eichengrün, a Jewish chemist later
said that he was the lead researcher, but records of his participation were erased
under the Nazi regime.
Bayer AG named the new drug Aspirin. Within two years Aspirin became a
global blockbusting drug.
Medical milestones during the 20th century
1901 - Different human blood types were discovered by Karl Landsteiner (1868-
1943), an Austrian biologist and physician. He identified the presence of agglutinins
in blood and developed the modern system of classifying blood groups. He received
the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1930.
1901 - The first case of Alzheimer's disease was identified by Alois Alzheimer
(1864-1915), a German psychiatrist and neuropathologist. He called it "presenile
dementia". His colleague, Emil Kraepelin, later called the it Alzheimer's disease.
1903 - The first practical electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) was invented by
Willem Einthoven (1860-1927), a Dutch doctor and physiologist. In 1924 he re-
ceived the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1924.
1906 - Vitamins were discovered by Frederick Hopkins (1861-1947), an En-
glish biochemist. He also suggested that scurvy and rickets were caused by a lack of
vitamins. Along with Christiaan Eijkman, he received the Nobel Prize in Physiology
or Medicine.
1907 - A chemotherapeutic cure for sleeping sickness was developed by Paul
620
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
Ehrlich (1854-1915), a German doctor and scientist. Ehrlich's lab also discovered
Arsphenamine (Salvarsan), the first treatment for syphilis that was effective, and
thus initiated and named the concept of chemotherapy.
1908 - The stereotactic method (stereotactic device) was invented by Victor
Horsley (1857-1916) and R. Clarke. It allows experimental and surgical intervention
in deep-seated structure of the brain.
1910 - The first laparoscopy performed on a human was done by Hans Chris-
tian Jacobaeus (1879-1937), a Swedish internist. Jacobaeus became a professor at
the prestigious Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, and was also a member of the
Nobel Prize Committee.
1921 - Vitamin D discovered by Sir Edward Mellanby (1884-1955), a British
physician. He also explained Vitamin D's role in preventing rickets.
1921 - Insulin was discovered by Sir Frederick Banting (1891-1941), a Cana-
dian medical scientist, and Charles Herbert Best (1899-1978), an American-Cana-
dian medical scientist. Banting received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1923 (along
with John James Rickard Macleod) when he was 32 years old. He is still the young-
est ever Nobel Laureate for Medicine.
1921 - The technique of epidural anesthesia was pioneered by Fidel Pagés
(1886-1923), a Spanish military surgeon.
1923-1927 - The first vaccine for diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), TB
(tuberculosis) and tetanus were developed and used successfully.
Sir Alexander Fleming, FRSE, FRS, FRCS(Eng)
1928 - Penicillin from the mould Penicillium notatum was discovered by Sir
Alexander Fleming (1881-1955), a Scottish biologist and pharmacologist. He was
awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1945, along with Howard
Florey and Ernst Boris Chain.
The discovery of penicillin changed the course of history and saved hundreds
of millions of lives.
1929 - Human electroencephalography was discovered by Hans Berger (1873-
1941), a German doctor. He was the first to record brain waves or EEGs
(electroencephalograms). He discovered the alpha wave rhythm in the brain, which
is also known as "Berger's wave".
1932 - A chemotherapeutic cure for streptococcus was developed by Gerhard
Domagk (1895 -1964), a German pathologist and bacteriologist. He is credited with
discovering Sulfonamidochrysoidine (KI-730), the first antibiotic to go on the market
(brand name: Prontosil). He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine
in 1939.
1933 - Insulin shock therapy for patients with some mental illnesses was dis-
covered by Manfred Sakel (1900-1957), a Jewish Austrian neurophysiologist and
psychiatrist who later became an Austrian-American.
1935 - The first successful vaccine for Yellow Fever was developed. The yellow
fever virus was isolated in West Africa in 1927; this led to the development of two
vaccines in the 1930s. 17D was developed by Max Theiler, a South African microbi-
ologist at the Rockefeller Institute. He used chicken eggs to culture the virus. Theiler

chiatry, but have not sufficiently reconciled to settle controversy over either the se-
lection of a psychiatric paradigm or the specification of psychopathology. The notion
of a "biopsychosocial model" is often used to underline the multifactorial nature of
clinical impairment. Alternatively, a "biocognitive model" acknowledges the physi-
ological basis for the mind's existence, but identifies cognition as an irreducible and
independent realm in which disorder may occur.
The biocognitive approach includes a mentalist etiology and provides a dualist revi-
sion of the biopsychosocial view, reflecting the efforts of Australian psychiatrist Niall
McLaren to bring the discipline into scientific maturity in accordance with the para-
digmatic standards of philosopher Thomas Kuhn.
Subspecialties
Various subspecialties and/or theoretical approaches exist which are
related to the field of psychiatry. They include the following :
Addiction psychiatry; focuses on evaluation and treatment of individuals with
alcohol, drug, or other substance-related disorders, and of individuals with dual diag-
nosis of substance-related and other psychiatric disorders.
Biological psychiatry; an approach to psychiatry that aims to understand mental
disorders in terms of the biological function of the nervous system.
Child and adolescent psychiatry; the branch of psychiatry that specialises in work
with children, teenagers, and their families.
Community psychiatry; an approach that reflects an inclusive public health perspec-
tive and is practiced in community mental health services.
Cross-cultural psychiatry; a branch of psychiatry concerned with the cultural and
ethnic context of mental disorder and psychiatric services.
Emergency psychiatry; the clinical application of psychiatry in emergency
settings.
Forensic psychiatry; the interface between law and psychiatry.
Geriatric psychiatry; a branch of psychiatry dealing with the study, prevention, and
treatment of mental disorders in humans with old age.
Liaison psychiatry; the branch of psychiatry that specializes in the interface be-
tween other medical specialties and psychiatry.
Military psychiatry; covers special aspects of psychiatry and mental disorders within
the military context.
Neuropsychiatry; branch of medicine dealing with mental disorders attributable to
diseases of the nervous system.
Social psychiatry; a branch of psychiatry that focuses on the interpersonal and
cultural context of mental disorder and mental wellbeing.
Psychiatric diagnoses take place in a wide variety of settings and are per-
formed by many different health professionals. Therefore, the diagnostic procedure
may vary greatly based upon these factors. Typically, though, a psychiatric diagno-
sis utilizes a differential diagnosis procedure where a mental status examination and
physical examination is conducted, pathological, psychopathological or psychoso-
cial histories obtained, and sometimes neuroimages or other neurophysiological mea-
surements are taken, or personality tests or cognitive tests administered. In some
628
IVth BHMS (VIIth-ED) Unique Publication
cases, a brain scan might be used to rule out other medical illnesses, but at this time
relying on brain scans alone cannot accurately diagnose a mental illness or tell the
risk of getting a mental illness in the future. A few psychiatrists are beginning to utilize
genetics during the diagnostic process but on the whole this remains a research
topic.
Inpatient treatment
Psychiatric treatments have changed over the past several decades. In the
past, psychiatric patients were often hospitalized for six months or more, with some
cases involving hospitalization for many years. Today, people receiving psychiatric
treatment are more likely to be seen as outpatients. If hospitalization is required, the
average hospital stay is around one to two weeks, with only a small number receiving
long-term hospitalization.
Outpatient treatment
People may receive psychiatric care on an inpatient or outpatient basis. Outpa-
tient treatment involves periodic visits to a clinician for consultation in his or her
office, usually for an appointment lasting thirty to sixty minutes. These consultations
normally involve the psychiatric practitioner interviewing the person to update their
assessment of the person's condition, and to provide psychotherapy or review medi-
cation. The frequency with which a psychiatric practitioner sees people in treatment
varies widely, from days to months, depending on the type, severity and stability of
each person's condition, and depending on what the clinician and client decide would
be best.
