The 30 cubic centimetres of diluted serum are thencarefully and slowly injected by lumbar puncture after ap-proximately an equal amount of spinal fluid has been with-drawn. Theoretically, the intraspinal injection is best doneby the gravity method (Fig. 67) ; practically, it can be andis properly accomplished by the faultless use of a syringe,injecting very slowly (Fig. 68). The patient may be per-mitted to lie on his side or sit with his back arched. Im-mediately after the injection, the patient must lie down and.
