Treating the emotional aspects of infertility: counseling services in an infertility clinic.

The physician treating the infertile couple, while attempting to diagnose and treat the cause of that problem, all too frequently overlooks the emotional aspects of involuntary sterility. Infertility can cause tremendous strains on the patients, either individually or as a couple. An approach to meeting these needs can be achieved through a program of counseling, provided as a service in an infertility center.

Radiologic evaluation of the treatment of nonunion of fractures by electrical stimulation.

A procedure is described in which nonunion of fractures is treated by implantation of electrodes with direct electric current at the site of fracture. Of 107 patients treated with electrode stimulation, 71 (66%) healed. If one eliminates 9 cases of congenital pseudoarthrosis and 11 patients treated with only 10 microamperes of current, 70 of 87 patients (8095%) healed. Severe osteoporosis and sclerosis were common radiologic findings, but had no value in predicting which patients would respond to therapy.
