Abstract
Spread of the excitation along the spinal cord was studied in white rats in ascending general tetanus. The special feature of this phenomenon is that the excitation becomes generalized completely (in some cases only) on stimulating the limb into whichthe lethal dose of toxin had been injected. The clinical effect takes the form of a convulsive attack with characteristic features of spasticity. High division of the spinal cord had no appreciable effect on the phenomenon.
