SUPPLIES KEPT FOR

TRANSFUSIONS

It has been known for some months in medical circles that Russian surgeons were making of blood obtained from corpses for emergency blood transfusions,

use

The surgeon-in-chief of the Cen- tral Emergency Hospital in. Mos eow now reveals in an American scientific journal that he has used this method for nearly 1,000 trans- fusions and his clinic has sup plied 100 flasks of corpses' blood to other institutions.

This expert records that his first experience with the method was in the case of a young engineer with both his wrists slashed, brought to hospital without a perceptible pulse. He was given a pint of blood ublain- ed from the body

a man who had been killed in an accident six hours before and the recovery was prompt. Experiments were then carried out on the most suitable type of blood, methods of storage and collection. The most suitable subjects were at- found to be persons dying of un tuck of ongina pectoris, those killed who by an electrical current or those hal committed suicide by hanging.

The blood is obtained from the

the neck) jugular vein (in

and can be preserved in a refrigerator for as long as a moath. When required for transfusion the blood is warmed to the temperature of the patient's body by standing the flask in worm water and it is filtered through gauze before

use.

TIME FACTOR

The time taken to warm up the blood and begin its administration is about five or six minutes, and the great advantage of this time-saving when an acute emergency has deve loped can be enslly realised.

Another great advantage is that repeated transfusions can be given with the same blood, for it is claimed: that a corpse will yield five or six pints of blood and this is suffelent for half a dozen average transfusions. An ordinary living donor could not give anything like this umount of Blood

at Che time.

The same precautions as to Buil- ability of blood have to be taken as with ordinary blood transfusions. Since the blood can be, and 1s, usually stored, special tests can be made as to its purity, and here time is again saved when blood is required in an emergency.

It is suggested that all hospitals dealing with aceldent cases should endeavour to organise a supply of blood obtained from fatal cases, thus rendering great service to those vic- tims wito, are still alive but seriously shocked and urgently in need of the reviving power of a blood transfu- sion.
