The effectiveness of late-nineteenth-century nursing care should not be underestimated. The archive of patient records at Melbourne's Women's Hospital reveals a commitment to patient care that more often than not made the difference between life and death in the recovery from major surgery or post-partum infection. These records suggest the need to reassess the role of medical care in the mortality transition after 1850.
19世纪晚期护理的有效性不容低估。墨尔本女子医院的患者记录档案显示了对患者护理的重视，这往往在重大手术康复或产后感染中决定生死。这些记录表明有必要重新评估1850年后医疗护理在死亡率转变中的作用。
