Atlanta Newspaper Comments Favorably on
New Technique at St. Joseph's Infirmary
ATLANTA, Ga.—Ill an article
which appeared in The Atlanta
Journal, Odom Fanning praised
the new operating room teehniciuc
at St. Joseph’s infirmary in these
words:
Doctors and nurses in the oper
ating room at St. Joseph's Infirm
ary can set up for surgery in five
minutes, where it used to take
thirty. The added minutes save
doctor’s time. What’s more im
portant, they might save the pa
tient's ili'e.
It’s all due to a new system
of operating technique. St. Jo
seph’s is the' only hospital in
Atlanta participating in a national
research program to find out just
how good these new techniques
are.
"We know already there Is less
chance of infection with these new
procedures,” Sister Mary Camil
lus, supervisor of the operating
room, said.
Last May Sister Camillus
studied these latest methods of
operating room safety under Dr.
Carl b. Walters at the Peter
Bent Brigham Hospital in Boston,
Mass. They have been under trial
here for three months.
By using new chemicals and new
,ways of handling materials, the
system simplifies the complicated
procedure of getting doctors, nurs
es and patients ready for the oper
ating room.
"Scrub time is cut from ten
minutes to three by the new meth
ods,” explained Sister Camillus.
“The entire setting-up time is
shortened from thirty minutes to
ten. In an emergency operation
that time might be precious.
Besides saving time, the new
methods are more effective. For
example every doctor or nurse
who touches the patient: or sterile,
goods used to scrub his hands
and arms with cyanide antiseptic.
Cyanide has been found ineffec
tive. It has been replaced by a
new chemical, zephiran.
Soap kills the effectiveness of
some other chemicals used. So
in place of soap at St. Joseph's
they scrub up with phisaderm
with G-ll added, a new chemical
put out by the pharmaceutical
firm of Winthrop-Stcarns, Inc.
MF,’3. MARY McCAULEY:
FUNERAL IN COLUMBUS
The doctors like the new meth-
cause they save lime. With the
extra minutes the physician can
visit more patients in the hospital.
So successful. have the tech
niques proved in the operating
room, they have been adopted for
the delivery room too. Sister
Mary Albert, supervisor of the ob
stetrical department, has taken
the course in Boston, too.
The now operating room pro
cedures will be taught all nurs
ing students before they enter
surgery training, according to Sis
ter Mary Bonavcnture, director of
the school of nursing. All stu
dents who enter with the new
class that begins on September
10 will get the course.
