Urges Patients Be Given Knowledge Full Knowledge On Heart Trouble By DELOS SMITH eA’PI Science Editor i NEW YORK (UPD — A noted expert on the heart believes medical knowledge and know-how now have advanced so far “it has become evident that the ultimate goal of preventing all forms of heart disease is far from an idle dream.” ------ r That being so, Dr. A. Carlton prnstene of Cleveland was surprised and disturbed because “little attention has been paid to one fundamentally important feature of cardiologic practice,” which is to tell the person with any kind of heart trouble, real or the works. The medical school, it is not impressed on the student that he can help the patient by telling him all; nor is it properly impressed upon him while he is a hospital interne and resident. He has to be a practicing doctor for several years before he “fully appreciates” what telling can do. Patient Must Adjust “Attention to details may gain years of comfortable and productive life, and whether or not a person to the extent required usually depends on whether or not he understands the need for the measures advised by the doctor,” Ernstene said. He pointed to angina pectoris caused by a hardening of heart arteries. The victim must adjust his “habits, activities, and emotional situations” so as to prevent the painful attacks. But how can he, if he isn’t given a clear idea of all the ways and wheres? Then there is acute myocardial infarction, the kind of heart attack the layman means when he uses the term, the kind President Eisenhower had. It “rarely occurs at a time convenient for the patient,” Ernstene said. “After the pain and other symptoms have been controlled, the physician often finds that he is dealing with a person who ISmot- only frightened and bewildered but also depressed and resentful.” The thing for the doctor to do is to explain everything in detail; to tell the man that he may begin feeling better in a few days than he has felt for a long time. But it won’t mean he’s not in for a long rest. Give him an estimate of how long the rest will be and when he can get back to his job. Tell all this and you often have “a remarkably changed patient.’ Need Salt-Free Diet In another form of heart trouble. recurrences most often are due to the failure of the patient to keep salt out of~his diet. But when he is told what salt has to do with water retention in the body, there ‘ usually are no more relapses. “Anxiety, insecurity, emotional tension and fatigue often are responsible for symptoms that cause the patient concern about his heart,” he said in taking up heart troubles which are imagined rather than real. These people must be given a positive explanation of the discomfort. A statement that there is no heayt disease without further elaboration leaves many questions unAnswered in the patient s mind and seldom convinces him of the harmlessness of his symptoms. Ernstene is a member of the editorial board of "Circulation,” technical journal of the American Heart Association, and he delivered his medical sermon therein. Youth Week Services At Nazarene Church Nazarene youth week services began Tuesday evening with a banquet held in the fellowship hall of the Antioch United Missionary church, attended by 50 young people and youth wofkers of the Decatur Church of the Nazarene.

Scientists Develop Potent Pain-Killer Strict Regulations For Use By Doctors WASHINGTON (UPD — Twe scientists whp developed a potent new pain-killer said today some doctors may be able to get it for their patients but only under strict regulation. Dr. Nathan B. Eddy and Dr. Everette L. May said that the drug, lo tidies more powerful than morphine, is being produced in only limited quantities for experimental purposes. They reported it will be six months and possibly longer before the drug, known as NIH 7519, is ready for commercial production. ’ In the meantime, they said, it will be possible for some doctors to get it. They referred all inquiries to the sole producer. Smith, Kline & French Laboratories of Philadelphia. But before the drug is released, the manufacturer will have to know something about the doctor and the conditions under which he proposes to use it. The doctor also must agree to follow strict regulations regarding the size of doses. Eddy and May, both researchers at the National Institutes of Health, developed the new drug from coal tar derivatives. Arthur S. Flemming, secretary of health, education and welfare, announced the discovery Tuesday. He described it aszan “exciting breakthrough” in the search for safer pain-killing drugs. Eddy said there is no doubt that the drug is safe since it already has been successfully used on patients at several clinics. But he said more testing is necessary to determine how much of the drug may be safely given a patient. Without this knowledge, he said, it would be dangerous to put the pain-killer, into general use. Most of the really potent painkillers now rire made from opium. Their two chief disadvantages are that they are habit-forming and patients build up a tolerance to them after prolonged use. The new drug is habit-forming but to what extent has not been determined. Eddy said research is continuing on related compounds in the quest for a drug which is not addictive. Indianapolis Man Is Killed In Collision Two Others Injured During Heavy Fog GREENSBURG, Ind.

Mallory & Co. at Indianapolis, company spokesmen said. Police guarded the wreckage of the car, apparently to prevent curious spectators from peering into the trunk of the vehicle. Company spokesmen would not* comment on reports the trunk contained a secret cargo but said it had nothing to do with satellite production, although Mallory makes component parts for missiles. The men were enroute to Cincinnati when the accident occurred. Driver of the other car was identified as Paul Palszen, 30, Cincinnati. Police said Webb started to pass a truck in the fog and swerved to avoid a car approaching from the opposite direction. Palszen also swerved, but veered off the highway in the same direction Webb turned. HTH Sj A3/c and Mrs. Robert L. Geisel, Colorado Springs, Colo., are parents of an 8 pound. 11 ounce baby boy.
