MIND

• Delirium, 248, 249.
• Great delirium, with lucid intervals, 249.
• Wildly delirious, but quite fantastic, almost hysterical, laughing wildly and crying, and not at all conscious; pupils widely dilated; he evidently saw visions, as in delirium tremens, for he was constantly grasping and picking at imaginary objects; the odor of Belladonna was strong from his hands and feet; quite blind, and stared vacantly, 264.
• Violently agitated, throwing his limbs about, groaning and moaning. Apparently unconscious, and did not speak, nor attempt to do so. These symptoms continued for an hour and a half without intermission. He then became comatose, and so continued till his death, 268.
• After three hours she was very delirious, talking fast, and throwing about her arms in an excited but feeble way; her pupils were widely dilated and insensible to light; her pulse was 126. Three-quarters of an hour later she was very restless, tossing about the bed, picking at the bedclothes, and throwing about her arms in a meaningless way, but partially conscious of what was said to her. A "calabarized disc" was placed in one eye (the left); in about twenty minutes the left pupil had contracted to a pin's point, the right pupil remaining widely dilated and insensible to light; the eyes continued thus till death, which occurred sixteen hours after taking the poison, 269. [2550.]
• He was quite delirious, the delirium being of a mild vagarious of fantastic character. He could neither hear nor speak plainly, and labored under hallucinations, but was otherwise unconscious. The pupils were widely dilated, and the eyes had a staring look. At first he complained of pain in his throat and of imperfect sight, objects appearing white to him. His pulse was feeble, and almost countless. Urine small in quantity for the first twenty-four hours, 262.
• The symptoms were similar to those in case one, with the addition of a flushed face, more active delirium, the grasping at imaginary objects and picking of the clothes being also much more marked, 263.
• Immediately after the second draught he walked out, and noticed at once dimness of vision, dryness of mouth and throat, constriction of fauces, a feeling as if the tongue was enormously swollen, dulness of intellect, and weakness of knees, with want of muscular co-ordination. Having reached his room at 6 P.M., two hours after second dose, he became alarmed at his symptoms, called his landlord to his assistance. The patient was running up and down the room, drinking large draughts of water, upsetting pitchers, and in danger of falling. Medical aid was summoned at once. It was noticed at this time that the tongue was very red, and the secretion of urine increased. There were hallucinations like those of delirium tremens, disagreeable, vanishing instantly, and immediately after their departure the patient was aware of their unreality. The yellow corpse of a tall man, shrouded in white, tried to share the patient's bed with him, and the unwelcome visitor was promptly ejected. A crimson serpent came from the foot of the bed, with the design of fastening upon the patient's neck. Rising to his knees, he with his fist drove the serpent's head deep into the bed, and instantly the apparition vanished. He asked his attendant (for he was practically blind) if the blanket had a red border to account for the hallucination. There were large sea-turtles about the room, such as he had seen in the Pacific. After an hour or two of sleep in the early morning the delusions became agreeable, and continued all day. While riding out in the afternoon with a medical friend, trees became personified to him as people in fantastic costume. In the morning there was severe pain in both renal regions, which he partially relieved by pressure with his fists, the elbows planted in the bed, and the body raised in that way quite off the mattress. Further details are given derived from medical attendants. The delirium was "most busy." Picking things from the bedclothes, rising in bed to gather things from the pictures and walls, muttering to himself, he had little time to notice those about him. Great mental and physical prostration, sleeplessness, and pain in the left kidney followed the accident, .

Afterwards one drop of tincture was added to nine drops of water, and this was applied in the same manner, again no effect was noticed; then a drop was added to four drops of water, and applied; this experiment succeeded, a perceptible contraction of the pupil was noticed. Some months later the last-mentioned experiment was repeated at noon. Two drops of tincture were added to eight of water. Small portions of this dilution were rubbed over the eye at intervals during half an hour. At the end of this time the pupil was slightly contracted, it was less than of the other eye. Afterwards the remainder was rubbed over the same eye, at intervals during another half hour; a slight dilatation of this pupil was noticed, it was larger than the other. This dilatation afterwards increased considerably, and had not disappeared on the following morning, 271.

SUPPLEMENT: BELLADONNA. Authority.

286 , Drs. Flechner, Frankel, and Schneller, Zeit. der k. k. Gesel. der Ærzte zu Wien, 1847, p. 97, a proving beginning with 2 drops of the tincture, and increasing irregularly to 130 drops.

• A dose of 2 to 30 drops, especially the latter, caused slight dryness of the mouth and nose, insipid taste, yellowish fur on the tongue, diminished appetite, dulness in the frontal region, roaring in the ears, weakness of vision, with normal, rather contracted pupils; in one person, in addition, pain in the small of the back; in another person stitches in the region of the shoulder, and in the left side in the region of the false ribs. From 35 to 60 drops the above-mentioned symptoms in the mouth and fauces increased to a distressing degree. There was burning in the hard palate and throat, with great redness of these parts the voice became hoarse, the intestines distended by gas and painful. The head became dull, there were vertigo, sleepiness, and frequent yawning, restless sleep. In two provers there were also transient stitches in the region of the heart, tearing pain in the head, in the region of the shoulders, and in the feet. These symptoms continued in a less degree, even on the following day when nothing was taken. After doses of 65 to 130 drops, the above-mentioned symptoms increased, with the exception of transient pains; the eyes became especially affected, there was foggy vision with vertigo, the eyes seemed covered with a veil, reading was very difficult, the conjunctiva was injected, the pupils in one case, from 110 drops, dilated. Lastly it was noticed that the urinary organs became affected, so that micturition was accomplished with great straining and difficulty. On the same day in which one prover took 110 drops, an experiment was made with an external application to the conjunctiva; a few drops were rubbed into the upper lid, and some trickled into the inner canthus. About a quarter of an hour afterwards there was some dilatation of the pupil, which increased so that after two hours there was scarcely a line of iris to be seem. The margins of the lids became red, the conjunctiva slightly injected; even the pupil of the other eye was somewhat dilated. The iris of the right eye was sluggish in action, vision was very weak, and the eyes seemed veiled. On the next day, the right pupil was still considerably dilated and vision very much restricted, especially in the open air. At the same time the eye was drawn somewhat upward and outward. On the third day vision was only somewhat weak, the pupil remained dilated for several days. The following were the chief observations from twenty-one provings with three different preparations: the mucous membrane of the mouth and fauces was first affected; thence the affection extended upward to the mucous membrane of the nose and frontal sinuses, and partly to the conjunctiva and Eustachian tube, then downward into the larynx, then from the throat into the stomach and intestinal canal. This affection consisted essentially of dryness of the parts, for example, dryness of the whitely coated tongue, pasty taste, diminished appetite, desire for liquids without thirst, scraping in the throat, difficulty of swallowing, hoarseness, difficult speech, sneezing, nausea, inclination to vomit, pressure in the stomach, diminished stools, increased gas in the intestines. As objective symptoms, there were dark redness and swelling of the mucous membrane as far as could be seen. A second sphere of action of Belladonna seemed to be the brain. The symptoms consisted of vertigo, pressing and aching pain in the head, reeling and slight stupefaction, sleepiness; the sleep, however, was restless and disturbed by vivid dreams. There were general prostration, general ill-humor, and disinclination to mental work. Dulness and confusion of the head lasted a long time. Of the two extracts, the alcoholic and the aqueous acted in a greater degree upon the brain than the extract of the Austrian Pharmacopœia; with the former it was especially noticed that with the increase of the symptoms of the mouth and fauces the head symptoms diminished. There was noticed an antagonism between the two preparations. The disturbance of vision began with a slight degree of weakness and fogginess, sensitiveness to light, and progressed to illusions of vision, flickering, and visions of colors, a feeling of pressure in the eyeball, increasing to a high degree of weakness of vision, with injection of the conjunctiva, increased lachrymation and dilated pupils. From the external application of the above mentioned, the symptoms were more pronounced; the pupils were extremely dilated, the iris less sensitive, and the eye turned upward and outward. Especially interesting was the action of Belladonna upon the urinary organs. Without calling particular attention to the nocturnal erections, produced by the smaller doses, there was noticed relaxation of the urinary organs in such a way, that there was frequent desire to urinate, with inability to passe urine except by great pressure, and then only guttatim. The action of Belladonna on the skin was increased warmth, amounting even to glowing heat of the face, turgor, and a very deep-red color, even a cherry red. In one person, 4 1/2 grains of the Austrian extract caused red circumscribed spots on the face. In the vascular system in general there was a feeling of chilliness, coldness of the extremities, alternating with heat and increased transpiration, accelerated pulse, and palpitation, .
