A repetition of some of the courses given by this department is indi eated in the following announcement. This is due to the fact that the curriculum is being changed to permit more elective work in the fourth year.

SECOND YEAR

Professor MOFFITT.

101. Propedeutics of Medicine. Lectures, demonstrations and recitations. Great emphasis will be laid upon cultivation of the student's power to observe. Obvious clinical phenomena or typical pictures of disease will be demonstrated at the beginning of the course, such as jaundice, pig. mentation, cyanosis, edema, ascites, anemia, myxedema, Basedow's disease, tumors, peculiar gaits. Later on important symptoms as dyspnoea, vomiting, cough, pain, polyuria, etc., will be considered, with special reference to their physiological interpretation. Still later cases will be demonstrated (particularly cases of nervous disease, paralysis, muscle atrophies, disturbances of reflexes, brain tumors) that will serve to illustrate the relation of anatomical and physiological knowledge to clinical phenomena. Recitations from Osler's Text-Book of Medicine drill the student in medical terminology.

Second semester, twice a week.

102. Physical Diagnosis and History Taking.

32 hours.

Drs. KILGORE, WHITNEY, BINE, and BRIG-GS. A few lectures on the method of history taking and on certain general chapters of physical diagnosis will be delivered to the entire class. Practical exercises in the wards and Out-Patient Department will be given to sections of not more than six. Cabot's Physical Diagnosis and Sahli's Untersuchungsmethoden will serve as textbooks.

Second semester (ten weeks), four times a week.

Each student, 80 hours.
Dr. KILGORE.

103. Clinical Physiology. Lectures, recitations and demonstrations. The object of these exereises is to point out at the beginning of the student's clinical experience some of the more direct practical applications of physiology. Special emphasis is laid upon those facts which have been learned by personal laboratory experimentation. Certain disorders of nervous and cardiac mechanism, hemodynamics, respiration, digestion, etc., are considered.

Second semester, twice a week.

32 hours.

Drs. BRIGGS and FOSTER.

104. Clinical Pathology. Training in the chief laboratory methods used in the clinic. The student is taught to use in an efficient way knowledge already gained in his courses in physiology and pathology. Examinations are made of blood, urine, sputum, stomach contents, feces and of ascitic, pleural and cerebrospinal fluids. The material is derived from the medical wards and Out-Patient Department in which the student is at work so that emphasis can be laid upon the correlation of clinical and laboratory findings. Second semester, twice a week.

96 hours.

THIRD YEAR

105A-105B. Clinical Medicine. Professor MOFFITT. Lectures, demonstrations, ward visits and quizzes. During the course of the year's instruction important diseases will be illustrated, as far as possible, by suitable cases. Interesting patients seen by the students in the Out-Patient Department can be taken into the wards and more carefully studied.

First and second semesters (U. C. H.), twice a week.

106. Clinical Medicine.

64 hours.

Professor KERR.

This course consists of clinics, clinical conferences, lectures and demonstrations upon the material in the medical wards of the San Francisco Hospital.

Second semester (S. F. H.), twice a week.

107. Clinical Demonstrations and Recitations.

32 hours.

Dr. EBRIGHT.

Students are assigned patients for observation and study. Subsequently, their findings are criticised by the instructor and the case is made the basis of a recitation. Second semester (S. F. H.), once a week.

108. Clinical Pathology.

16 hours.

Drs. BRIGGS and FOSTER.

For description see Course 104. After this session the course will

not be given in the third year. First semester, twice a week.

109. Dietetics.

96 hours.

Dr. BINE.

A short course will be given on the physiology of nutrition and on the digestibility and nutrient values of the different foods, including the analysis of standard dietaries. Special attention will be paid to the use of foods in the treatment of nephritis, diabetes, nephro

lithiasis, gout, obesity, undernourished states as well as to rectal feeding and the use of artificial foods. The practical application of these methods will be illustrated by the treatment of these diseases in the hospital wards, the senior students charting and keeping track of the diets in all cases. The dietetic treatment of such gastro-intestinal diseases as hyperacidity, anacidity, gastric ulcer, constipation, intestinal putrefaction will also be illustrated by ward cases.

First semester, once a week.

16 hours.

110A-110B. Section Work in Wards and Out-Patient Department. Drs. EBRIGHT, KILGORE, BINE, WHITNEY, BRIGGS, FRANKENHEIMER. Practical work in history taking and physical diagnosis to supplement the courses of the second year. Stress is laid upon the careful

[blocks in formation]

Medical cases in the wards are assigned to the senior students. The student puts into practical use the knowledge gained in the third year in methods of history taking, physical and laboratory examinations, and differential diagnosis. The cases are worked up and recorded independently of the hospital records, handed in to the instructor and discussed informally.

First semester.

For electives in this department see page 76.

Each student 48 hours.
