The crew seems happy at the The Regular Thing. One of our outstanding surgeons has been giving some wholesome ad- vice to his brother practitioners. He | points out that in accident cases where damage suits are likely fo arise, or in regular practice where a physician may be sued for mal- practice, a great deal of misgivings and self criticism will be saved the physician, if he has every case un- dergo and X-ray examination, where there is a possibility of a broken bone. The attending physician may de- cide that the bone is not broken. treat it as a slight injury, with the result that the patient feeling that the bone j€ not broken, takes great- er chancel with it than his physician has advised. If trouble results there- from, the physician may well be | blamed for not making sure of his | diagnosis by means of the X-ray. On | | the other hand if the physician is not known to the patiemt, and treats it as if it were a broken bone by us- ing splints and so forth, the patient may later question the account and even the fact that the bone was really broken. The physician therefore not only protects the patieat by having the X-ray examination, but also pro, tects his own name and reputation. Out in the country, many miles from an X-ray machine, .some physicians feel reasonably sure of their diag- nosis, and hesitate to put the pat- jent to the expense and trouble of a trip to the nearest point where the X-ray examination can be made. Physicians are only human, and | sometimes let the matter of the ex- pense to the patient, sway their de- cision in a doubtful case. It would be well, our surgéon friend reminds them, to think past this matter of expense to the pat- ient, to thé point of what the pos- sibility of a mistake may mean to the whole after life of the patient. This surgeon goes further and states that before long, judges in these damage or malpractice suits, would decide that it was an over- sight on the part of the medical man it he did not have this test made. And not only should the X-ray be taken at time of accident, but in some cases it would be wise to have an examination made during the healing of the break to make sure that everything was all right. As I've said before, the X-ray is a wonderful aid where it is needed, and it does seem a great mistake not to take advantage of it. Increase in Convictions. Toronto, Aug. 27.--An increase in prisoners committed in Ontario last year over 1923 is shown in the re- port on prisons and reformatories in, Ontario for 1924, this increase being 1,884.
