Honor Young Doctor For Risking life Human Guinea Pig Is Honored Today | CHICAGO, UP —A young doctor was honored today for risking his life as a human guinea pig in Experiments which halted his natural breathing for hours rit a tiine.' As ia result of Dr. Lloyd Thomas Koritz’ courage, his citation said, many' lives are being- saved through the use of new methods of rendering'artificial respiration to victims of drowning or electric shock. 1 Koriltz, 26, Rochelle, 111., was given the wllter Reed society award at its annual meeting. As a medical student at the University of Illinois, Koritz permitted himself to be drugged with substances which paralyzed his breathing. He was kept alive through artificial resuscitation. Hje participated in four separate experiments involving the resuscitation of persbns whose breathing was impaired. r! The experiments resulted In a new type of push-pull respiration which recently replaced the Schaefer prone pressure method of artificial respiration that had been standard with; United Stites rescue and first aid workers for many years. \ * Koritz now is an interne at the Cook county hospital He plans to enter general practice at Rochelle with Dr. Arthur |H. Bogue who first encouraged him to become a doctor. == During the experiments, scientists Koritz injections of sodium peniathol, an anesthetic ’some, times used as a truth serum, >nd curare, a drug used by South Harrow tips. The edrare, stuns or hills the Indians’ quarry by paralyzing them. • In one of the experiments, doc* tors sought a naw method of respiration for drowning victims. Another series of tests shows that the' same push-pull method was task for victims of electric shock. jj As part of the experiments, Koritz was hung from a telephone pole with lineman’s straps and fclimfoing irons, then knocked out >ith drugs. : As k result, scientists found that the new resuscitation methods could save ttens in starting artificial respiration of linemen shockfed while on I poles; Previously, time was lost bringing the man to the ground before beginning resuscitation. ?* Another set of experiments pertnitted research workers to study the rate of fatigue of persons administering artificial respiration. one of these tests, Koritz ferfts unconscious for 11 hours. : in another project, doctors used iCoritz to determine the efficiency pf a new-type electric artificial lung that had been developed in Germany. Another group of experxfinpnts tested the anesthetic properties of pentotbol drugs. | koritz said although several of these experiments were highly dangerous,} his first experiment Was the toughest.
