new METHOD
TREATING BIRDS
PATIENTS ARE PUT THROUGH A
BAKING PROCESS AND MAY BE
SAVED IF HALF THE BODY
SURFACE Is BURNED

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-Physi-
clans at Roosevelt hospital are en-
thusiastic over a new method which
is being tried there for the treat
ment of severe burns. 1t is said to
have been unexpectedly successful
during the short time it has been on
trial and the doctors say that a
number of lives have been saved
that probably would have been lost
if treated by any of the old methods.
The treatment, which is said to be
entirely original at Roosevelt hosp1-
tai consists of baking the patient.
A large wire form is placed on the
bed over the patient and the PED
clothes placed on top of that. BE-
side the bed is placed an ordinary
small gas stove provided with
special air chamber from which a
tube runs under the bed clothes
Through this tube constant cur
rent of hot air is forced into the
oven-like covering Of the bed. Inc
bed clothes are left loose at the 100
of the bed to insure the introduction
of fresh air, but are closely fasten
ed down everywhere else.
1t is ~ated at the hospital tina
several patients have been cure'
where the burns covered more thar
half of the surface OF the BODY
while with the usual method o
treatment cases are generally rata
where a third of the body's surfac
Is burned.
