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 It has been replaced by a new chemical, zephiran.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.
