BABY’S LIFE

   -----------

Saved By Difficult Operation by Physicians

   -----------

At City Hospital – Blood Taken From Father and Delicate Treatment is Given Little One

   ----------

(Note by Janie Martin Whitty:  This baby died anyway, on November 11, 1915 only a couple of weeks later)

 

Members of the medical profession in Springfield are watching with no little interest the case of the little week-old daughter of Arthur Foley, 537 Rose  street, whose life is believed to have been saved by a treatment bearing some resemblance to transfusion of blood , but more delicate and much more rarely administered.

 

The child appeared wholly normal until about a day after birth, when she showed seepage of blood from the intestines, stomach, and all other mucous surfaces of the body, diagnosed as “melaena neonatorium”.  It was apparent the child would have but a short time to live unless extraordinary procedure was adopted.

 

Blood was taken from the child’s father, and subjected to centrifugal force by which the serum was separated.  This serum has been injected in quantities of ten cubic centimeters, three times daily, beneath the child’s skin.  Indications yesterday, according to friends of the family, were that the child had been saved, as there had been no bleeding for about forty hours.

 

This case, believed to be the first of its kind in the city, is said to have been handled by the most advanced treatment possible under the circumstances, as transfusion of blood directly, or use of any serum other than that of the baby’s father would have involved dangers which were avoided by the means used.

 

The case was handled wholly by local members of the profession.  Both Mr. Foley and the baby are at the city hospital.
