Healthy mongrel dogs were subjected to aspiration of 20 ml/kg of fresh water (group I) or sea water (group II). Fresh water as well as sea water aspiration produced an immediate and significant bradycardia and the heart rate remained appreciably low throughout the forty minute study period. Appearance of tall T waves was the chief electro-cardiographic abnormality seen in both the groups. Out o...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been known for many years to be associated with poor cardiovascular prognosis. Due to the sensitive neuropathy, the coronary artery disease in diabetic patients is frequently asymptomatic. Also twelve leads resting ECG can be within normal limits even in an advanced stage of coronary artery disease. Therefore in addition to the standard ECG other electrocardiographic ...

THE electrocardiographic pattern of 164 patieuts with head injury was studied and compared with two control groups: 100 patients with limb trauma aud 164 healthy subjects. In the group with the head injury the electrocardiographie findings were correlated with the level of consciousness. The possible relationship between head trauma and eleetrocardiographic changes was first suggested by Bramwe...

Accidental hypothermia was considered to be a rare condition in adults (Rees, 1958). Within the past few years evidence has accumulated which shows that far from being a rare event, accidental hypothermia is a common condition in this country, especially during the winter months (EmslieSmith, 1958; Duguid, Simpson, and Stowers, 1961; Prescott, Peard, and Wallace, 1962; and Brit. med. J., 1963)....
