SESSIONS AND COURSE OF STUDY IN THE DEPARTMENT
OF MEDICINE.
The work of each of the three years of the course in Medicine continues through
the full nine months of the University session, beginning on the fifteenth day of
September and closing on the Saturday immediately preceding the fifteenth day of
the following June. The studies included are arranged as follows:
During the first session: Chemistry (with an introductory course upon the principles
of Chemical Physics); Biology (Comparative Anatomy, Normal Histology,
Embryology); and Descriptive Anatomy.
During the second session: Physiology; Bacteriology; Pathology; Regional
Anatomy; Materia Medica; and Obstetrics.
During the third session: Gynecology; Surgery; Therapeutics; Practice of Medicine;
Opthalmic Surgery; Hygiene; and Medical Jurisprudence.
An examination of this system will show that the work of the first year is given
to those sciences which are fundamental to the entire work of the remaining part
of the course; that of the second year includes the study of those sciences, more
distinctively medical, which are based upon the work of the previous year, while
they in turn underlie the more strictly professional subjects of study; these
latter are begun in the second year, while the third and final year is devoted
wholly to them. The larger part of the work of the first year is accompanied by
practical work in the laboratory and the dissecting-room; the same is true in great
measure of the work of the second year. The facilities afforded by the University
for such work will be more fully described in the statements which follow concerning
the different subjects included in the course. The professional subjects taught
have associated with them in the third year a large and increasing amount of opportunity
for practical illustration in the instruction given at the clinics and elsewhere.
A more specific statement of this work will follow in its proper place.
Methods of Instruction.—The instruction is given by systematic lectures and
daily oral examinations, with associated practical work in Anatomy, Histology,
Bacteriology, Pathology and Obstetrics. The daily oral examinations on the subjects
of the previous lectures are of great value in stimulating the student to regular
and systematic habits of study, and furnishing the professor an opportunity
of discovering and removing difficulties met with by the student.
Relations of the Student in the Second and Third Years.—Students who pass a
satisfactory examination on the subjects studied during the first session are not
required to attend the lectures or stand the examinations on these subjects the
second year; but if a student fail to pass a satisfactory examination at the regular
time on one or more of the subjects included in the first year's course, he will be
permitted to take such subject or subjects over during the second year, without the
payment of any additional fee. In like manner, if he fail to pass a satisfactory
examination at the regular time on one or more of the subjects included in the
second year's course, he will be permitted to take such subject or subjects over
during the third year, without the payment of an additional fee, and if he pass a
satisfactory examination on these subjects, as well as those of the third session, he
will be permitted to graduate at the close of that session: Provided, however, that
no student whose failure to pass a satisfactory examination at the regular time
shall extend to all the subjects of a given year will be permitted to go on to the
work of the succeeding year; he will be required to confine himself to a repetition
of the work of the year on which he has failed—and no student will be allowed
to undertake the work of the third year until he has completed that of the first,
save by special consent of the Medical Faculty. Students who have taken the
degree of Bachelor of Arts in the University of Virginia, on a scheme including
such medical subjects as, in connection with other subjects associated therewith,
second year.
Certificates of Attendance.—No one will receive a certificate as a regular student
of the Department of Medicine in this University unless he has attended the
whole regular course of one or more of the three years.
Requirements for Graduation.—No student is permitted to graduate from the
University of Virginia with the degree of Doctor of Medicine till he shall
have attended the regular course of not less than three years in this institution,
and passed a satisfactory examination on all the subjects included in the Medical
course, unless, in lieu of either the first or the second year's study here, he shall
have attended one course of lectures of not less than seven months, or two courses
of less than seven months each, in some other reputable medical school, in which
case he may apply for graduation at the end of his second or first session in this
institution; but in order to obtain the degree he must pass a satisfactory examination
at this University on all the subjects heretofore mentioned as included in the
Medical course.
The Graduating Examinations are in writing (accompanied in some subjects
by individual practical examinations) and of a rigorous character. Two sets of
these are held each year—one near the close of the session, after the completion
of the lecture courses; the other at the beginning of the next session. To the
latter are admitted—
(a) Students of the previous session who from illness or other cause approved by
the Faculty were unable to present themselves for examination. These may
be examined on any part of the course, and will not be required to matriculate
anew.
(b) Students who at the close of the preceding session have passed satisfactory
examinations in two of the studies pursued during that session, and have
attained on one or more of the remaining subjects such a grade (but little
lower than that required for graduation) as the Faculty may approve. This
slightly lower grade must have been reached on the particular subject or subjects
on which the student presents himself for re-examination.
(c) Students who present certificates of attendance on one or two seven-months'
courses or their equivalent at some other reputable medical school.
Students falling under classes (b) and (c), after first matriculating and then passing
the Fall examinations on the studies of the preceding one or two sessions,
may proceed to the work of the second year, or to that of the third
year, and to graduation, without attending the lectures on, or passing further
examination in, the studies of the preceding session or sessions, except the
general oral examination which immediately precedes graduation.
No special examination will be given in the Department of Medicine except
under extraordinary circumstances, to be carefully weighed by the Medical
Faculty.
A General Oral Examination is held each year prior to graduation (at the
close of the session) on all the different branches on which the student has passed
during either that session or some preceding one. This is intended to test the
permanent acquisition of such general knowledge as every practitioner of medicine
should possess.
CHEMISTRY.
Professor Mallet.
In this course the students are taught Chemical Physics and the general principles
of Chemistry, and are carried through a course of Descriptive Chemistry,
inorganic and organic; their attention is directed, whenever an occasion presents
itself, to the application of chemical principles to Physiology, the Practice of
Medicine, Therapeutics, Toxicology, and Sanitary Science.
Text-Books.—Witthaus' or Fownes' Chemistry; Syllabus of the Professor's lectures.
For reference: Charles' Physiological and Pathological Chemistry; Wormley's
Micro-Chemistry of Poisons.
MEDICAL BIOLOGY.
| Professor Tuttle, | Mr. Baker, |
| Dr. Davis, | Mr. Gordon, |
| Dr. Skeen, | Mr. Tappan. |
Under this title are grouped, for convenience, the lectures in the courses described
below, the whole forming a continuous series of three lectures a week
throughout the first year of the Medical course. Each lecture is accompanied by
two hours of practical work in the laboratory illustrative of the topics discussed.
The laboratory is convenient, well lighted, and amply equipped; forty-eight desks
are provided with microscopes, accessory apparatus, and all necessary reagents, and
the class is divided into working sections not exceeding that number; desks are
assigned by lot at the opening of the session, and apparatus issued as needed from
time to time. Each student is required to provide himself with a set of dissecting
instruments, and with slides, covers, and labels for microscopical preparations;
all other appliances are provided by the laboratory without charge.
Comparative Anatomy.—The lectures of the first three months are devoted to
the discussion of the comparative anatomy of vertebrates, the thoracic and abdominal
viscera being chiefly considered; the student, in the meantime, dissecting
and studying a series of animals representative of the principal sub-divisions of
the group. The objects of the course are to give such fundamental morphological
conceptions and such general anatomical knowledge as shall pave the way for the
detailed and specific study of Human Anatomy; to familiarize the student with
the normal appearance of healthy organs and tissues as seen immediately after
death; and to lay the foundation for the subsequent intelligent study of Histology
and Physiology. The dissections are supplemented by demonstrations and the
study of permanent preparations illustrative of features of importance.
Text-Book.—None is required at present. Parker's Zoötomy is recommended for
laboratory use, and Wiedersheim's Comparative Anatomy of Vertebrates (Parker's
translation) for collateral reading.
Histology.—The lectures of the following four months are devoted to the allied
subjects of Histology and Histological Anatomy. In the first part of the course
the tissues and their component elements are carefully examined, both singly and
in their primary aggregates, as are also those organs which consist largely of one
form of tissue. The remainder of the course is devoted to an examination of the
between them being studied. While the primary object of the course is
the imparting of clear and accurate knowledge of the minute structure of the body,
due attention is paid to the technique which is necessary as a means to that end;
students are therefore carefully trained in the use of the microscope and in histological
processes, including the selection and preparation of material, the making
and mounting of sections, and their subsequent study.
Text-Books.—Shaefer's Essentials of Histology; Piersol's Normal Histology;
Stöhr's Histology (Billstein's translation); the Professor's Elements of Histology.
Embryology.—The courses in Anatomy and Histology are followed by a course
discussing the maturation, fertilization, and the segmentation of the ovum; the
formation of the germ-layers; the embryo and fœtal appendages; and the development
of the tissues and the organs of the body. While the final object sought is
a clear conception of these processes as they are known or believed to take place
in the human body, the whole subject is treated from the comparative standpoint,
as that best adapted to give intelligent and comprehensive ideas thereof. The
lectures are accompanied by practical work in the laboratory on the development
of an amphibian and of the chick, and upon mammalian embryos and their fœtal
appendages at various stages.
Text-Books.—Shaefer's Embryology (vol. I pt. I of the tenth edition of Quain's
Anatomy); Foster and Balfour's Elements of Embryology.
The attainments of the student in each of the divisions of the course are tested
by both written and practical examinations; his standing for the year is determined
by an average of all the marks received.
ANATOMY.
| Professor Christian, | Dr. Bullock, |
| Dr. Jones, | Dr. Graham. |
Descriptive Anatomy.—The instruction is given by didactic lectures, combined
with the course of Practical Anatomy as taught in the Dissecting Hall. The endeavor
throughout is to render the teaching as completely practical as possible;
no statement is made that is not illustrated by its exhibition, either on the actual
dissection or on the preparation of a dissection, the effort being to convey knowledge
by the so-called natural method—that is, by mental imagery formed by
repeated observations of nature. This is accomplished by exhibiting to the
student and requiring him to handle the dissected parts and preparations made
therefrom. The equipment of the School for this purpose is most ample. Particular
attention is called to the fact that in describing the more minute anatomical
structures—such as brain, cranial nerves, etc.—cuts and diagrams are not
relied upon, as is too often the case, but careful dissections are yearly made and
demonstrated to the class.
Practical Anatomy.—For this course dissecting material, obtained under the
permissive law of the State, is abundantly supplied without cost to the student.
Attendance in the dissecting room is compulsory, a strict record being kept in the
case of each student. Every student is required to dissect on all parts of the
second for arteries and nerves. Not more than five dissecting clubs (of eight
men each) are admitted to the hall at one time. A Demonstrator for each club
superintends the dissections, directing the work of the individual student; and
afterwards, accurately and carefully explaining every dissection to his club. After
this careful preparation, besides the ordinary oral and written examinations, each
student is required to stand eight practical examinations, one upon osteology, four
upon different parts of the muscular system, one on the viscera, one on the ligaments,
and one on the vessels and nerves. These examinations are oral and private,
each student being questioned alone, and required not only to state the origin
and insertion of muscles, the beginning, termination and relations of blood vessels,
nerves, etc., but to point out or demonstrate each fact. They are thus a
perfect test of the student's practical acquaintance with the gross structure of the
human body.
Regional Anatomy.—This subject is taught to second course students by the
same practical methods as are described above.
The important bony landmarks, lines of blood vessels, nerves and muscles are
carefully described and their positions verified by dissections made before the class.
Special attention is paid to the study of the landmarks of the skull, neck, chest
and abdomen, and all the structures in, or bearing relation to, the more important
joints. Inguinal and femoral hernia, the perineum and pelvis, are described with
special reference to the surgery of these parts. Cross sections of the upper and
lower extremities and the neck are made at different levels and described to the
students, who are afterwards required to stand practical examinations on these
parts. The course, in fact, is a comprehensive review of the facts taught in Descriptive
Anatomy, but with special reference to their application to Medicine and
Surgery.
PHYSIOLOGY.
Professor Barringer.
The study of Physiology is not begun until the student has completed the
courses in Chemistry, Anatomy, and Histology, and is hence well prepared to
appreciate the broader principles of this subject. The entire work of the school
is designed with reference to its practical bearings on the subsequent studies of
Pathology and Therapeutics. In the elucidation of this subject the large collection
of plates belonging to the Department is supplemented by original preparations
and models.
Text-Book.—The Professor's Abstract. For reference: Landois's Physiology;
Foster's Physiology or Kirke's Physiology.
BACTERIOLOGY.
| Professor Tuttle, | Mr. Baker, |
| Dr. Davis, | Mr. Gordon, |
| Dr. Skeen, | Mr. Tappan. |
Bacteriology is taught by lectures accompanied by practical work in the laboratory.
The instruction given at the University in this subject differs from that
the case that the student is brought almost at the very outset into relation
with the bacteria of disease, the whole or the larger part of the course of instruction
being given to their specific study, the technique involved in their culture
and determination, and the specific products of their activity. These are all matters
of the highest importance, and should by no means be neglected; but exact
and extensive knowledge of them may be and too often is associated with entire
ignorance of the real nature and affinities of the Bacteria, the general principles
of vegetable physiology of which their characteristic activities constitute a special
case, and of the essential conditions on which their culture depends. Believing
that the educated physician should, as far as possible, know the scientific principles
on which his professional knowledge rests, provision has been made for a
short course which deals with the Bacteria from the botanical standpoint, discussing
the general morphology and physiology of plants to an extent sufficient to give
the student an intelligent idea of the place of these organisms in the vegetable
kingdom and of the relation of their life to that of other plants. This knowledge
is made the basis of the farther discussion of their economic relations, their action
as causes of disease, and of the methods resorted to for their manipulation, the
most important processes of bactericultural technique being, as far as possible,
fully illustrated and demonstrated in the laboratory. The whole course is intended
to form a proper preliminary to the specific discussion of the pathogenic bacteria
which finds its proper place in the course in Pathology.
Text-Books Recommended.—The Professor's Introduction to the Bacteria; Abbot's
Principles of Bacteriology; Sternberg's or Crookshank's Manual of Bacteriology.
PATHOLOGY.
| Adjunct Professor Davis, | Mr. Morrison, |
| Dr. Skeen, | Mr. Bumgardner. |
The principles of General and Surgical Pathology are discussed by lectures and
illustrated in the laboratory.
The processes of disease are studied in detail, with the unaided eye and with the
microscope, upon selected specimens.
Instruction is given in the method of conducting an Autopsy, in which the
object of preserving for future investigation desirable parts is kept particularly in
view. This involves pathological technique, in which students receive a thorough
drill and are allowed to retain the preparations they make. Each student is
required to recognize, by the aid of the microscope, the nature of tumors and to
make examinations of urine. These practical exercises constitute a distinct test in
addition to the regular written examination covering the entire work of the course.
Under the study of Infections, the Bacteria concerned are considered in detail
and made the subject of investigation in the laboratory, which is equipped with
approved modern apparatus.
A series of lectures upon the symptoms and therapeutics of Surgical Diseases
follows closely the course upon Pathology.
Text-Books.—The Professor's Syllabus; Ziegler's General Pathology; Coplin's
Manual of Pathology; Warren's Surgical Pathology and Therapeutics; Abbott's
Principles of Bacteriology.
OBSTETRICS.
Professor Buckmaster.
In Obstetrics instruction is given by lectures, and the mechanical principles
involved in the study are explained by the use of suitable preparations and
models. The systematic use of the manikin with the fœtus has made it possible
for the student to obtain a knoweledge of obstetric manipulation which he can
acquire in no other way. Special attention is paid to the manikin drill. The
course consists of twenty-five demonstrations and is obligatory. A special examination
is held and forms a part of the examination for graduation in obstetrics.
In order that each student may have ample opportunity to make the demonstrations
in the laboratory, the class is divided into sections not exceeding eight men
in number. Full information as to the scope of the course will be furnished on
application. The number of obstetrical cases applying at the dispensary for treatment
at their homes is steadily increasing; the student who is detailed to take
charge of such a case is furnished with an outfit containing all the articles necessary
for the conduction of an aseptic labor. At the conclusion of each case the student
in charge is required to sterilize the towels, sheets, instruments, etc., under the
direction of the Assistant in Obstetrics; he must also fill out and sign one of the
printed forms furnished by the Department. Such work may count in the class
standing.
Text-Book.—Outlines of Obstetrics, by Charles Jewett (Lea Bros. & Co., Philadelphia).
MATERIA MEDICA AND THERAPEUTICS.
Professor Barringer.
In Materia Medica particular stress is laid upon the physiological action of
drugs as furnishing the only basis for a rational system of therapeutics. The
Department is provided with a good collection of drugs, both crude and prepared,
which are shown to the student as dealt with in the lectures. Exercises in prescription-writing
are given weekly for several months.
Text-Book.—White's Materia Medica and Therapeutics. For reference: Brunton's
Pharmacology; Wood's Materia Medica.
The subject of Therapeutics is taken up among the studies of the third year. The
range of the work will embrace both general and special therapeutics, whether
rational or empirical, but a constant effort will be made throughout to trace those
general underlying principles the existence of which alone enables this subject to
be called a science. The method pursued will be that of taking up in order the
perversions of the various organs and functions rather than the individual forms
of disease.
Text-Book.—(To be named hereafter.) For reference: Bruce's Materia Medica and
Therapeutics; Brunton's Pharmacology.
SURGERY.
Professor Christian.
In Operative Surgery the first aim is to ground the student thoroughly in the
principles and technique of modern aseptic surgical procedure. All amputations
and ligations, the application of splints, bandages and apparatus for different fractures,
are shown upon the cadaver. To insure a practical knowledge of the subject,
each student will be required to perform operations upon the cadaver as a
part of his examination for graduation.
Text-Book.—Wyeth's Surgery.
GYNECOLOGY.
Professor Buckmaster.
In Gynecology instruction is given by lectures and recitations, and the plastic
operations necessary to repair injuries of the pelvic structures are shown during
the course. Practical training in the details of gynecological treatment is given
at the dispensary.
Text-Book.—The Professor's Syllabus. For reference: Principles and Practice of
Gynecology, by T. A. Emmet; Treatise on the Diseases of Women, by A. J. C. Skene.
PRACTICE OF MEDICINE.
Professor Buckmaster.
The Theory and Practice of Medicine is taught in a systematic course of lectures,
which are supplemented by clinical teaching at the Dispensary. In the year
1896-'97 over three thousand patients were treated, thus affording ample material
for elementary teaching. The Monday clinic is devoted to the examination of
the patient. The Wednesday clinic is especially designed for the demonstration
of practical office methods of examination of the secretions. The Thursday
clinic is devoted to physical examination of the chest.
In the didactic lectures the author's syllabus is used as a guide for the essential
points to be considered in a careful study of the text-book. The student is earnestly
advised to use the syllabus and text-book before hearing the lecture, as
experience has shown this to be the most effective means of obtaining a knowledge
of the subject.
Text-Books.—A Hand-Book of Physical Diagnosis, etc., by R. C. M. Page; The
Principles and Practice of Medicine, by William Osler; a Treatise on Mental and
Nervous Diseases, by Landon Carter Gray; The Diseases of Infancy and Childhood,
by L. Emmet Holt.
HYGIENE.
Adjunct Professor Davis.
In this course the chemical and bacterial contamination of food, water, air, and
soil first engages the attention of the student. With this preparation he takes
and methods of prevention. Instruction is also given in the proper location
and construction of habitations, hospitals, school-houses, etc., with especial
reference to modern methods of heating, ventilating, and draining. Notice is
taken of the special relations involved in Military and Naval Hygiene.
Text-Book.—Rohé's Text-Book of Hygiene.
MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE.
Professor Buckmaster.
In this course the student is instructed in the principles of the science, and
taught how to apply these principles when he is summoned as a witness in a court
of law.
Text-Book.—Chapman's Medical Jurisprudence.
CLINICAL INSTRUCTION.
| Dr. Barringer, | Mr. Baker, |
| Dr. Buckmaster, | Mr. Hunt, |
| Dr. Nelson, | Mr. Morrison, |
| Dr. Magruder, | Mr. Sperow, |
| Dr. Randolph, | Mr. Sutherland, |
| Mr. Tappan. |
The opportunities for clinical instruction at the University have within the last
few years been very greatly increased. The erection and equipment of the University
Dispensary and the careful consideration of the needs of the community
in this respect have built up an out-patient department vastly in excess of the apparent
possibilities of the city; moreover, this material is utilized for purposes of
instruction to a much greater extent than is usually done in clinical teaching. The
amphitheatre is so arranged that no student is over fifteen feet from the clinical
chair or operating table (as the case may be), and each can thus understand and
appreciate all that is shown him. For the purpose of still more definite instruction,
the whole class is called up in successive small sections to examine special
cases and conditions, the students being questioned later on the knowledge so obtained.
There is a daily clinic at the Dispensary, in each case occupying the
entire afternoon, distributed through the week as follows:
| Monday, | Dr. Buckmaster, | Medical. |
| Tuesday, | Dr. Nelson, | Surgical. |
| Wednesday, | Dr. Buckmaster, | Medical. |
| Thursday, | Dr. Magruder, | Physical Diagnosis. |
| Friday, | Dr. Barringer, | Ophthalmic. |
| Saturday, | Dr. Randolph, | Genito-urinary. |
During the past year nearly three thousand distinct cases were treated before
the students at the clinical lectures. Of these, about six hundred each were
medical, surgical or eye and ear cases, some five hundred were gynecological cases,
and over four hundred were cases of genito-urinary disease. In addition to the
work at the Dispensary, the class have seen in sections numerous important surgical
of the class have been in a similar manner brought into intimate contact with
cases of serious illness of various kinds. In obstetrical work, about fifty per cent.
of the class have been able to see at least one case each, while some members
have had as many as eight or nine cases; it is believed that more systematic arrangements
can now be made, and that in the future each member of the class can
have one or more cases during the session.
There are appointed each year from among the best students of the senior class
in medicine a limited number of young men to serve as clinical assistants at the
Dispensary. While there is no pecuniary emolument connected with these positions,
they afford exceptional opportunities for the acquisition of valuable practical
knowledge.
EXPENSES.
The necessary expenses of students in the Department of Medicine may be
estimated at from $315 upward, according to the mode of living, for the first year;
the expenses of succeeding years are somewhat less. A fuller statement of expenses
may be found in a subsequent section.
