An evaluation of Diamox is presented in 71 cases of water retention, with a favorable response in 56. Most of these patients had heart disease. This drug acts through inhibition of carbonic acid anhydrase in the kidney tubule, favoring the excretion of sodium and, hence, of water. In therapeutic doses no toxicity is noted, although acidosis is possible. Cirrhosis is a contraindication for the use of Diamox. Patient response is not uniform and can be determined only after clinical trial in each case. WALTER

Sponge Count, p. 418.
The author presents several cases in which presumably missing sponges could not be found in the abdomen and were usually found elsewhere later and, conversely, cases in which, despite supposedly correct sponge counts, sponges were left behind. He suggests the following precautions: (1) d’meontinue counting sponges and leave the surgeon solely responsible on the question of foreign bodies; (2) have an instrument attached to all sponges and similar material used in the abdomen; (3) as far as possible, abandon the use of surgical sponges in favor of laparotomy sponges.
