In 1925 Dr. E. C. Duvidson published from the Department of Surgery, Henry Ford Hos- pital, Detroit, a method of treating burns and scalds by tannic acid which he had found to diminish and to reduce the grave dan- gers of toxaemia and "second- nry shock." 'His results were soon confirmed in this country, and the use of this treat- ment led to a great diminution of the painful and often fatal results of burns or scalds. The results found by trial of the method were in fact so good that in many hospitals the new treatment passed quickly into daily use. The conclusion must be that the tannic acid method for the treatment of burns is one of the most important re- cent advances that have been made in modern therapeuties.
