Dr. John S. Lundy, chairman of ' the anesthesia section of the Mayo Clinic at Rochester., Mi nr>, .htentt fled- thWWrur *s dolltrone and de scribed it as “something really dif ferent.” He revealed how it acts in a re port to the American Medical Assn ’s annual convention. In a nutshell, dolltrone exerts an almost hypnotic Influence on a pa tient even allowing the doctor to order the patient to do something during an operation while the pa tient is completely unaware of what la going on. TO REACH ULTIMATE Lundy said he believed the drug may help the medical .profession reach “the ultimate” in solving the twin problems of killing pain and at the same time putting the pa tient in an ideal operative condi tion. An anesthetic used to make the patient completely unconscious —generally has one or more draw backs. Among other things, it is difficult to administer with com plete safety, he said. An analgesic —a local pain kill ’ er, such sa morphine doesn’t ob literate the operation from the patient’s memory. [ Dolltrone, however, apparently [ licks the problems of both analge . sics and anesthetics, Lundy said. I Althrough no experiments with . dolltrone have been made during actual childbirth, Lundy predicted that a woman injected with it dur. I ing labor could be “told to bear down and push, and she’d do it.” ■■ . : • 1 .. M| •' . v | JJpf JSailu JUwnrd DUNN, N.
