U' Doctors Experiment with Frozen
Blood; Seek Rare Types for Surgery

Heart-Lung Pump
Requires 9 Pints
Doctors at the University Hos-
pital were sent recently in search
of a rare blood type needed to
prime the pump used in open-
heart surgery.
Th'e AB-Positive blood carrying
anti-Lewis antibody is so rare
there are only 290 registered
donors in the nation.
It has been estimated that the
incidence of this factor is only
0.1 per cent.
'Rare Blood File'
The search for the rare blood
type began on October 2 when
University doctors telephoned the
Rare Blood file of the American
Association of Blood Banks in
Milwaukee, Wisc.
Since the heart lung machine,
which is used t~o pump blood while
the patient is undergoing correc-
tive heart surgery, requires fresh
blood to pump its lines, arrange-
ments had to be made to speed
the nine required pints to Ann
Arbor all at the same time.
The nine pints are required both
to keep the lines of the pump fill-
ed land to replace blood lost dur-
ing the surgery.
An 'Artificial' Heart
The pump itself acts as both an
external heart and as a pair of
lungs. The blood returning to the
heart is pumped out of the body
before it reaches the heart and
then is mechanically oxygenated
before it is pumped back into the
heart where it flows through the
body and back to the pump.
The blood was finally found in
Milwaukee ; at the Blood Center
there and on Oct. 6 it was flown
to Detroit.
During the night, lab techni-
cians at the University hospital
checked' samples of the blood to
make sure they were compatible.
Case Successful
The next day the patient suc-
cessfully underwent the surgery.
This particular case, although
rare, wa.s only one of numerous
cases where rare blood types have
required doctors to seek *many
places to find the blood needed.
According to the Association of
American Blood Banks, blood used
to be classified in eight major
groupings: A , AB, B, and O, each
of which was further grouped in-
to Rh-negative or -Positive.
Over the past two decades, re-
searchers have discovered increas-
ing numbers of sub-groupings.
These blood groupings are now
numbered in, the thousands.
If a recipient does not get com-
patible blood, he may develop
antibodies harmful to health.

Machine Allows
Prolonged Storage
Recent transfusions 'of whole
blood that had been frozen and
thawed has indicated blood some-
day may be stored indefinitely for
use in large quantities during mili-
tary situations or under otherI
disaster conditions

THE BLOOD PROCESSING MACHINE, shown in the top picture,
is used to freeze blood which is to be preserved by a new method
being' pioneered by University Doctors Norman Thompson and
Paul W. Gikas. The bottom picture shows the different units in
which the blood is frozen. The larger two units store human
blood while the smallest unit preserves monkey blood. The
machine was invented by the Linde Division of Union Carbide.

Dr. Maurice Seevers, chairmanf
of the pharmacology department,t
has called for greater care on thet
part of the physician to fightc
drug abuse in the United States.s
Speaking yesterday as a par-
ticipant in the annual Pharmacyc
Lectures, he said it is "improperi
medical practice" to write pre-N
scriptions for extreme doeses of1
stimulants or sedatives and nott
label them "nonrefillable."
Drug abuse in the medical pro-i
fession is due largely to changing
social patterns, greater informa-5
tion to the layman on the effects
of drugs, and the difficulty of ob-
taming illicit narcotics in this1
country, Dr. Seevers said,
AmphetaminesI
Each patient must be treatedI
individually, and at times pro-I
longed daily use 'of sedative or
hypnotic doses is justified. The
illicit use of the amphetamines
and barbiturates is the most ser-
ious problem, Dr. Seevers said.
Yet a comparatively large quan-
tity of prescriptions are written1
every year beyond those required
for legitimate medical care. More
careful study is necessary to de-;
termine just how great this excess
is.
The physician's responsibility

for delicate handling of sedative
therapy is increased because of
the difficulty in early diagnosis
of barbiturate dependence, he
said.
"The unhappy history of nar-
cotics control in the United States
indicates that it would be un-
wise to introduce comparable
punitive legislation to control
these dangerous drugs,
"In order to minimize abuse, it
is the physician's duty to select
a dose and administer it at such
widely spaced intervals that the
subjective effects of the drug are
limited to those required for
proper therapeutic effect .
A patient who has access to
large amounth of a barbiturate
may become physically dependent
upon it.
Social Conformity
Publicity and social pressures
have led physicians to prescribe a
number of older hypnotics as sub-
stitutes and manufacturers to
market a large number of minor
tranqualizers, he said.
"Unfortunately, with but a few
exceptions, these substances, old
and new, weak and strong, are
sufficiently similar to barbiturates
or alcohol to possess similar abuse
potential. . . ," Dr. Seever said.
