Sauvages. In women of a delicate frame, of a nervous, irritable, hysterical habit, faintings during labour sometimes take place. They likewise occasionally happen to women ex- hausted by fatigue, by want of proper food, by want of sleep, by apprehension, or any other debilitating cause; among which may very properly be mentioned, the noisy conversation of many attendants in the lying-in chamber, bad smells, and want of ventilation. These faintings partake generally of the nature of hysterical p...aroxysms, and have been sometimes mistaken for the true puerperal convulsions. More dangerous faintings may happen to women, who have laboured under disease during their pregnancies, especially if they have had pulmonary affection, or orga- nic complaints. Syncope, also, always attends profuse hemorrhage. The method of obviating this unpleasant symptom is, to give light cordials to women of delicate nervous habits, as camphor Julep, sal volatile, sp. CBtheris sulph. &c. The room should be kept cool, volatiles or vinegar should 137 be held to the nostrils, and the forehead and temples maj be advantageously washed with cold vinegar and water.
