Basal Metabolism Machine Among
Features of New Jewish Hospital
BASAL-METABOLISM APPARATUS
is
The new Jewish Hospital, one of four new hospitals to be con-
structed as part of the $19,720,000 program of the Greater Detroit
Hospital Fund, will be equipped with the most modern facilities for
treatment and diagnosis. The apparatus shown here, a basal meta-
bolism machine, has been developed in comparatively recent years
and is widely used to determine how an individual's body is making
use of the food he eats. The new hospitals will also contain electro-
cardiographs, instruments used in diagnosing heart conditions. This
photograph was taken at Mt. Carmel Mercy 'Hospital, which will be
expanded through the Fund's enlargement progi?am along with Grace
Northwestern and eight other voluntary hospitals in Greater Detroit.
The electrocardiograph and the basal-metabolism apparatus, are
two of the many new "diagnostic tools", made available to the physic-
ian through advances in the science and art of medicine. These ma-
chines will give to doctors at the new Jewish Hospital, to be con-
structed on the West Side, information essential to the diagnosis and
treatment of many disorders caused by faulty metabolism.
Each of these machines has its specific purpose and value. The
electrocardiograph, for example, is a scientific weapon in the fight
against heart ailments—the leading cause of death in the United
States. Basically, the electrocardiograph is a delecate apparatus that
can measure the electrical impulses discharged by the heart at each
beat. Wave patterns are produced and recorded on a graph showing
the rate and rhythm of the heartbeat. Each particular heart con-
dition records its characteristic curve on the chart.
The Greater Detroit Hospital Fund will help ensure the con-
struction of the new Jewish Hospital by an allocation of $2.500,000.
Expansion of Grace Northwestern will be aided by the earmarking of
$1,250,000 and of Mt. Carmel Mercy by a $1,000,000 allocation.
