Book Description
Excerpt from A Classified Nomenclature of Diseases: Designed for Use as a Diagnosis Index in the Central Free Dispensary of Rush Medical College The purpose of this classified nomenclature is to form a basis for a diagnosis index of patients treated in dispensary and hospital work, the immediate objects being to make the clinical material of the Central Free Dispensary more available for study and demonstration and to stimulate students to greater care in the use of diagnostic terms. In the present state of medical knowledge a perfect scientific classification or nomenclature of diseases is impossible. The aim has been to furnish a practicable, uniform terminology to be used in all of the departments of the Dispensary. The two chief divisions are the General Diseases and the Diseases of Systems and Organs. The former are grouped according to etiology and include diseases caused by Animal Parasites, General Infectious Diseases, with a complete outline of organs affected by Gonorrhea, Syphilis and Tuberculosis; the Constitutional Diseases, including many of obscure etiology; Poisons and Intoxications; General Injuries, and Tumors. The diseases of Systems and Organs are arranged alphabetically under each organ, and the organs of each system are arranged in anatomical order, except where an alphabetical order would lead to no incongruity, as under the Blood and Ductless Glands. The diseases of the Nervous System are in alphabetic order, although advantage is taken of the terms to group the diseases of the meninges, cerebrum, cerebellum, bulb, spinal cord, etc. The diseases of the skin are grouped upon a pathologic basis. The names of symptoms are used frequently. These serve three purposes: first, no other diagnosis can be made in some instances; second, a certain symptom may be so prominent a feature in some cases as to make it desirable to keep an account of it for future reference; third, they are a means of registering complications. For example, in hemorrhage of intestines in typhoid fever, the case may be registered under typhoid fever and also under hemorrhage of intestines. Symptoms should never be used, however, as the chief diagnosis when a more complete one can be made. Obviously the same term may occur in the list of diseases of a single organ and also under the General Diseases, e.g., Abscess, Amebic (see Animal Parasites) is under Diseases of the Liver and also under Animal Parasites, and Rheumatism, Acute Articular (see Infectious Diseases) is among the diseases of joints and also in the General Infectious Diseases.
