Pulmonary Function
Laboratory Set-up
At Del. Hospital


Vociferous persons who have
lax. Science has given them an out.
Their recourse is to visit a lab
oratory on the second floor of the
Delaware Hospital where accu-
rately calibrated instruments will
show that their wind" is probably
no more or no less than the normal
persons.
The lab. of course, has a much
more serious purpose. 1t is known
as the pulmonary function labora-
tory and enables medical experts
to study lung diseases of patients
The equipment has been provid-
ed by the Delaware Tuberculosis
and Health Society in an effort to
step up its campaign against
chronic respiratory diseases among
Delawareans.
The work in the laboratory is
under the direction of DR.. James
M. Hofford, a member of the staff
of the Delaware Hospital, who is
assisted by Mrs William B. Clark
medical technologist.
The Pulmonary function labora-
tory at the Delaware Hospital is
the only one of it's kind in the state
and one of the few in the nation
that are in Institutions other than
medical schools.
A quick tour of the facilities re-
yeals a Tissot gasometer for mea-
surfing gas volumes and taking
samples for analysis Van Slyke
manometric gas analyzer for de-
termining the amount of oxygen
and carbon dioxide in the blood
and for measuring the amount OF
nitrogen in gas samples, a Schol-
ander micro gas analyzer for ana
lying very small samples of gas
Collins spirometer for measuring
lung volumes, the usual quota OF
h emical reagents, glassware,
valves and other equipment.
Patients are referred to the lab
oratory for testing.
Their first stop is at the spiro-
meter where lung volumes are
measured. Through this means, the
laboratory staff can evaluate the
nature, seriousness and progress
of the disease, can assist in max
ing an accurate diagnosis, and
can judge the patients ability to
withstand an operation.
If an abnormality is detected by
the spirometer, additional tests
are conducted. Next is the residual
volume test, to measure the amount
of air left in a patients lung after
he has exhaled to the maximum
The residual volume is elevated in
various diseases, typifed by pull
monary emphysema, type OF
chronic lung disease.
Blood gas studies, while the pa
tient is at rest and at exercise,
measure the amount of oxygen be-
ing carried by the blood. The car
bon dioxide content of the blood is
examined also, to determine wheth-
er the patient has difficulty in get
ting rid of this gas.
The installation of the pulmonary
function laboratory in the Della
ware Hospital represents an i'm
portant step forward in the res
piratory disease program. of the
Delaware tuberculosis and Health
Society.
Respiratory diseases as a group
are one of the most serious health
problems confronting the nation
today. They rank fourth as cause
of death Furthermore, acute res
piratory conditions are responsible
for about 65 per cent of all acute
