Some of the Things

we are Trying to Accomplish

A REPORT BY THE CHIEF OF STAFF

THOSE of us who work for the Babies' Wards

have three objectives: First, to treat the sick

and suffering babies that come to our door: sec-

ond, to acquire new and more extensive knowl-

edge of the diseases of infancy and childhood : and

third, to spread this knowledge among the phy-

sicians, nurses, and mothers with whom we come

in contact.

It is our ambition to give less fortunate chil-

dren just as skilful, just as efficient medical, sur-

gical, and nursing care as they would receive if

they were private patients in a private hospital or

in a well-to-do home.

In working toward this goal, weare helped by the fact that we are able to draw on

all the resources of a large institution, which em-

braces all the specialities, and has many eminent

physicians on its staff.

For instance, the chiefs of the ear, nose, and

throat department make rounds periodically with

the attending pediatricians, to examine and con-

sult upon each case that involves the ear, sinuses,

nose, and throat.

One of the most skilful broncoscopists in the

City of New York may be called upon at any mo-ment to fish out a tack, or a safety pin, from the

bronchial tubes of some too omniverous child.

This feat requires a skill that only one out of

thousands of nose and throat specialists possesses.

In every branch of medicine, we have consul-

tants always within reach, instead of having to

call them in from outside. In our research work,

the same advantage holds. The genito-urinary de-

partment is conducting research in the cause and

treatment of pyelitis, a disease so common to chil-

dren. The X-ray laboratory, which serves the entire

hospital, the biochemical laboratory, the bacteri-

ological laboratory, and the pathological depart-

ment are all more completely equipped and skil-

fully supervised than would be possible if they

were for the Babies' Wards alone.

The entire pediatric staff has been extremely

busy this past year writing a textbook of over

one thousand pages which is to be completed

within the year. It is the ambition of the staff to

make this textbook so complete and comprehen-

sive and up-to-date that it will be a model of its

kind.

We hope soon to be housed and

equipped in a modern new building, where the

post-graduate teaching can be expanded so that

we may point with pride to a post-graduate medi-

cal center second to no other medical center in the

country.

Thepediatricstaffacknowl-

edges with much gratitude

the splendid co-operation of

the Ladies' Auxiliary, and

their continued helpfulness,

which has now gone on for

so many years.

It is more than twenty-five years since I began to be in-

"Every year that has gone by has deepened

my conviction of the immense value of this

work — not only to the people of New York

City, but to the whole country.

"Thousands of babies are brought to the wards

and pediatric clinics every year— last year there

were more than 23,000 visits of babies

and young children to these clinics. Every kind

of children's ailment, from simple feeding cases

to terrible congenital disease, is diagnosed and

studied here, by some of the most skilful child "^g^r^^specialists in the world. ^^"No one can measure the amount of good J^'

that is done. It is not only that poor babies

receive a care that money could not buy. Indirectly, thousands

of well-to-do parents owe the lives of their children to the

new discoveries, improved forms of treatment, that are

worked out here." p »

INIo WORK could be more appealing, or more

impressive, than the work that is done in these

babies' wards. The children who come here are

anaemic, pitiful little creatures. The mothers are

frightened and helpless; they have no one to

turn to; the hospital is their only hope.

"The hospital stands like a rock for these

people. It is wonderful to see the patience of the

nurses, as little by little they coax the babies

back to life; rejoicing over every ounce they

gain, delighted when a sick baby begins to have

strength enough to cry! It is wonderful to see

the understanding and care of the doctors.

a knowledge and skill that a king's son could

not have commanded a hundred years ago."

^Mother with children . . . They do the best they can— the mothers. One mother with six-

teen children— the oldest just beginning to work, the youngest a new baby—came regularly all the way

from Staten Island last year, to bring her little five-year-old boy to one of the clinics. In spite of

her sixteen children and her many household cares, she carried on his treatment successfully at

home over a period of six months, until he was cured. Another mother has been coming once a

week on the subway from the Bronx for more than a year to bring her twin babies to the feeding clinic.

The Babies of the Poor-Give them a Fighting Chance!

#

THERE is no more cheering sight in the world

than a perfectly healthy baby. It is warm, it

is sweet-smelling, it has a skin like milk and

roses, its eyes shine like stars. It sleeps with the

perfect relaxation of a little animal and cries only

when it is hungry or when its lungs need exercise.

To be a baby like this is to start out with the

best chance a human being can have of meeting

life successfully. Nothing you can give anyone in

after years is worth that first start as a healthy

child.

Half the work done by the child clinics and

Babies' Wards of the Post-Graduate Hospital is

just this business of helping babies to start right;

getting them on the road of health during their

first critical years.

WITHOUT this help, poor ba-

bies, many of them, cannot hope to survive. Thehandicaps are too heavy. It is fight, fight with

them from the beginning— to get enough sun, to

get enough air, to get enough rest— above all, to

get the right kind of food.

Last year there were three thousand and sixty-

one visits to the feeding clinic alone.

Some of these babies were so thin, so colorless,

with such sharp tiny features, that the only thing

about them that seemed childish was their help-

lessness.

Many of these cases presented special problems

in feeding that could be met only by expert scien-

tific knowledge gathered from years of experi-

ence in this work, and by the closest watchfulness

and care on the part of the physician and nurse.

In other cases, the hospital is able to teach the

mothers how to care for the child. It not only

teaches them, it sends a nurse into their homes to

see that its instructions are carried out.

The mother gets a clearly printed

list of what the baby is to eat, and when, and howmuch. If she cannot read English, it is translated

for her. If she does not know how to prepare the

baby 's food, the nurse shows her how. She is urged

to bring the baby back for re-examination in a few

weeks. If for any reason she should fail to come,

the hospital sends for her.

Thus with untiring vigilance, persistence, pa-

tience, the hospital watches over these babies

through the years when they are weakest and

most defenseless.

In the wards, the life and death battles over

very sick babies are fought.

A case of pneumonia, of meningitis, of mastoid,

recovers here when in some dark, crowded tene-

ment room it would quickly have flickered out.

Help these babies in

their struggle to live!

Your donation mayenable the hospital to

put another baby on

its feet— to pay for

the special nursing,

or the transfusions,

or X-rays, or tonsil i

operation that will Igive it its fighting

chance.

\ Never-ending Stream of

THERE are ten child clinics at the Post-Grad-

uate Hospital. Besides the baby feeding and

pre-school clinics, where mostly feeding cases are

treated, there is a cardiac clinic, an asthma clinic,

an epilepsv clinic, a skin clinic, a chest clinic, a

malnutrition clinic, a surgical clinic, and a gen-

eral children's clinic.

2.3,033 visits were made to these ten clinics last

year. From the thousands of children examined,

1,379 very sick ones were admitted to the Babies'

Wards.

These child clinics represent one of the most

valuable gifts it is possible for a society to give to

its struggling members.

The poor mother

in New York, generally

foreign-born, speaking

English perhaps with

difficulty, ignorantabout all things, but

especially about illness

—what is she to do whenher baby is sick?

j*- Without money, with-

out contacts, without experience— it would be

practically impossible for her to find her way to

any skilled advice, were it not for these clinics.

Here she can bring her child

—

free of charge if she is unable to pay; otherwise for

a fee of 15 cents—and obtain the services of menwho have specialized in the diseases of children,

whose observation has covered thousands of cases,

and who can at any moment supplement their ownknowledge with the experience of their colleagues

and the work of a research laboratory.

One of the largest clinics at the Post-Graduate

Hospital is the asthma clinic. There were 1,857

visits to this clinic last year.

Asthma is a very serious disease in its effect on

the system. It uses up a child's energy, stunts his

growth, is likely, if not arrested, to produce life-

long invalidism. It is only within the last ten

years that effective treatment for asthma has been

discovered.

Today asthma is known to be a

disease of hyper-sensitiveness, caused by an in-

ability to tolerate certain substances; some inhal-

ant substance (such as house dust, pollens, feath-

ers, the hair of animals, etc.); or some food (such

as milk, eggs, fish, chocolate, etc.) or some drug

(such as aspirin, oil of wintergreen, mustard

plasters, etc.)

The child who comes to the asthma clinic is

first tested to find out what substance (or sub-

stances) is causing his asthma. If it is impossible

altogether to remove this substance from the

child's proximity, he is given injections of a solu-

tion of the substance in order to render him im-

mune to it.

These injections are given over a period of six

months. Beginning with

a very weak solution, ^the strength is sometimes

gradually increased 1 ,000

degrees.

At the same time, every

attempt is made to re-

move from the child's

environment the sub-

stance that is causing

his asthma. A social

Children pours into the Clinics

Photogr»ph by Myers

Examining a Child in one of theOut-Patient clinics. In the prc-schoo!

clinic, where they arc first undressed and weighed, many of the two-year-old

babies are so well trained in the procedure that they begin to undress them-

selves as soon as they get inside the door

worker attached to the clinic follows up every

case in the child's home; urges the mother to re-

move all dust-collecting objects; to get rid of her

feather or rabbit's-hair pillows; to change the

child's food if some article in his diet is bringing

on the attacks; to send away the pet dog or cat

whose hair may be responsible.

Where the asthma is due in part to a diseased

condition of the nose, sinuses, tonsils, teeth, or

throat, the patient receives the care of a skilled

specialist in nose and throat who gives his services

to this clinic.

The asthma clinic represents

only one of the many types of service to children

carried on by the Pediatrics Out-Patient depart-

ment of the Post-Graduate Hospital.

To perfect the work of the clinics, to take care

of the constantly increasing number of children

who pour into them, more money is needed ;money

to pay additional

assistants, to buy

necessary equip-

ment, and to meet

the cost of special

treatment where

the child re-

quires it.

X-rays cost

from $3 to $zo.

A blood trans-

fusion costs $xz.50. Poor families often cannot

meet these costs.

Let your money help in this constructive work

!

What can money buy that will have more true

and lasting value than the gift of health that you

can help to give these children?

students. A description of this delicate and interesting operation is given on another page.

Doctorscome from all over the Country

to Study and Observe#

FROM all over the country men and womenwho wish to specialize in pediatrics or to get

additional pediatric training and experience, come

to the Post-Graduate Hospital to study. In 19x9

there were post-graduate students from fifteen

States. There were two men from British Colum-

bia. There was one from the Philippine Islands.

Thirty teachers—each one a specialist—manyof them specialists within a specialty—conduct

the classes.

In the Babies' Wards, where 70 beds are sup-

ported, surgical cases and cases of acute illness are

studied.

In the Out-Patient clinics the great number and

variety of cases make it possible to demonstrate

almost every phase of disease or abnormality in

children.

The influence of a great teaching center like this

is very far-reaching. It is not an exaggeration to

say that children all over the United States are

safer and better physically as a result of what is

learned here.

The man who goes from the Post-Graduate

Medical School to some city in Ohio or California

or Virginia is not only individually a better doc-

tor, better equipped to save the lives and protect

the health of children; he takes with him, as well,

the stimulating breath ofnew ideas, the contagious

knowledge of new methods, which, spreading

through his community, tends to raise the effi-

ciency of pediatric practice generally.

It is a vital wish of the Pediatrics Department

of the Post-Graduate Medical School to establish

fellowships for gifted students. Three types of

fellowships are contemplated

:

I . A TWO YEARS' FELLOWSHIP, consisting of a

three months' course of class work, three months' labo-

ratory training, a period of work in the Babies' Wards,

and a year in the Out-Patient department, together

with work on some special research problem. This type

of fellowship would give a man all-round training as a

pediatrist. It will require a donation of $1,100 the first

year, $1,500 the second year, to support such a fellow-

ship.

1. A YEAR'S FELLOWSHIP, to give training for someneeded specialization in pediatrics, such as that of neu-

rological pediatrist. At present there are good pediat-

rists and good neurologists in New York, but no neuro-

logical pediatrist. It will require a donation of $i,zoo

to support such a fellowship.

3. A YEAR'S FELLOWSHIP in pediatric research

work. There are many vital problems in pediatrics that

are only at the threshold of solution, and that can be

worked out only with the help of expert laboratory re-

search. This fellowship would train a man for lifelong

laboratory research work for babies. It will require a

donation of $1,2.00 to support such a fellowship.

You can make a great, a brilliant gift to the pedi-

atric department of the Post-Graduate Medical

School, and to the world of babies and young

children, by contributing to one of these three

fellowships. For further details, write to the

Dean, New York Post-Graduate Medical School.

T)r.John F. Erdmann, operating

in the large student amphitheater of the

Post-Graduate Hospital. One of the opera-

tions performed by Dr. Erdmann, which

has been of interest to the medical world,

has been the removal of the spleen in young

children. This has been done in certain-

types of haemprrhagic and blood disease,

formerly considered hopeless, with brilliant

success.

It has lately become more and more pos-

sible to diagnose spleenic diseases accu-

rately, and to determine which cases will

benefit by operation. Dr. Ward MacNeal,

in the laboratories of the Post-Graduate,

has made extremely valuable contributions

to this knowledge, by his study of the

pathology of the spleen.

The field is still an obscure one, but whenthe problem is properly solved, the reward

in health and life represents a real triumph

of modern medicine.

This Operation

prevents lifelong Cruel D eformity#

AYOUNG Polish woman had her first baby.

She demanded eagerly to see it, and the baby

was finally brought to her. She gave it one look,

then turned away in despairing silence. After a

long time she said:

"Better not been born."

The baby's tiny face was terribly disfigured. It

had been born with a cleft palate and harelip.

Otherwise it was perfectly healthy and normal.

Friends of the mother told her to take the baby

to the hospital. She brought it to the Babies'

Wards of the Post-Graduate Hospital and the babywas successfully operated upon.

Ten days later the mother was able to take the

baby away— its little mouth and nose perfect ex-

cept for the merest thread of a scar on the upper

lip. As she left the hospital, she encountered one

of the doctors .The tears were rolling down her face

.

"I have decide' to train Henry for a doctor,"

she said to him.

"Henry?" inquired the doctor. "I didn't knowyou had another child."

"This is Henry," she said. "I like for him to

help somebody else in trouble."

Harelip is a cruel and terrible deformity—not

only disfiguring the victim's face, but impairing

his speech so that he is forever cut off from normalintercourse with other people. It frequently,

though not always, occurs in conjunction withcleft palate.

In 19x9, 6z cases of harelip and cleft palate were

operated on from the Babies' Wards of the Post-

Graduate Hospital.

By work of this kind, the Babies' Wards are

saving many babies from a future of suffering and

humiliation for one of usefulness and promise.

'"Before and ^After Tictures" ofa Harelip and Cleft Palate Case

The operation for harelip is performed as soon after birth as

possible. Incisions are made after a series of very delicate

measurements, their edges are joined so as to re-form the lip

and nostril, silver sutures are fixed to hold the tissues firmly

in place, and within a week or ten days, if all goes well, the

wound heals. The operation for cleft palate is generally de-

layed until the child is older and the tissues have begun to

thicken. In this operation the tissues are lifted so that they

grow together, closing the cleft. When there is a very wide

cleft, the back part of the palate is closed first and the tissues

allowed to heal, then the rest of the cleft is brought together

in one or more succeeding operations.

What Happens to the Babywhen it Leaves the Hospital

#

ABABY is brought to the hospital with pneu-

monia, with mastoiditis, with rheumatic fe-

ver, and in the sunlight and peace of the Babies'

Wards, with expert nursing, with constant watch-

fulness and care, he recovers. What happens to

him then? Must he go back to the damp basement,

the air-less, sun-less tenement room that he came

from, and fight the same fight all over again, this

time with less vitality for the struggle?

This is one of the greatest problems the hospital

has to meet— the "follow-up" of the baby after

it leaves the hospital.

Whenever a child is admitted

to the Babies' Wards, a trained social worker,

attached to one of the clinics, visits the child's

home; talks with the family; and makes as com-

plete a summing up as possible of the family cir-

cumstances . According to what these circumstances

are, plans are made for the child's convalescence.

Occasionally the family are facing some desper-

ate crisis— the mother ill, the father

out of work—and a relief organiza-

tion has to be called in.

Sometimes all the home condi-

tions are so bad that fo return the

baby to them straight from the

hospital would almost surely

mean a relapse; in such cases the

hospital often arranges to have

the baby cared for in a convales-

cent home; sometimes for as long

a period as two or three months

C-

In many, many cases the family and the hos-

pital succeed in working the thing out together.

Practically always the family are eager to cooper-

ate, so far as it is in their power.

After the baby is sent home,

the social worker visits it to see whether it is

making progress; whether it gets its treatments

regularly; helps the mother with advice, and

sometimes with money. Sometimes the mother

cannot afford to buy the fresh eggs, Grade Amilk, green vegetables, etc., that are needed to

build the child up after its illness. The social

worker has a special fund at her disposal, with

which to buy convalescent food for the child. She

is also given a list of the children needing dental

follow-up, and sees that they get to a dentist.

In this work, requiring wisdom, tact, patience,

and untiring industry, the hospital is definitely

limited by the funds at its disposal. Last year

$Z7X.58 was expended from the Babies' Wards'

relief fund; $300 was spent for

care in convalescent homes.

One hundred and thirty-six

babies from the Babies' Wards

were given convalescent and in-

stitutional care; and 1,565 visits

Your MoneyCan Help Children like These

#

SAMMY, a sad-eyed little boy of six, came into the Babies'

Wards with his second attack of pneumonia in four months.

His father is a push-cart pedler and suffers from asthma. Hehas three other children, and barely earns enough for the

familv to live on. Sammy made a slow recovery. He is nowat home, and the hospital is allowing a weekly sum to buy

him milk, eggs, and fresh vegetables. He will be sent awayfor country care as soon as a place can be made ready for him.

BILLIE, a little three-year-old, was brought to the Babies'

Wards with a serious throat condition resulting from his

having accidentally drunk some lye. After his throat had

been treated, fearing that his lungs might have been dam-aged, the hospital sent him to Edgewater Creche in Engle-

wood, N. J., for several months' care. Billie's home is a

poor and crowded one, with six children, and only the

father, a porter, to support them. To give Billie a better

chance, the mother took a night cleaning job while he wasaway at the creche and saved enough money to move into a

better apartment. When Billie came back, in excellent con-

dition, a small sunny room was awaiting him, which his

mother had tried to make "just like a hospital room for

Billie."

GIOVANNI, a ten-months-old Italian baby, came to the

Babies' Wards with pneumonia, rickets, anaemia. This

baby's family have had a hard time. The father was injured

at his work several months ago. The mother works whenshe can; she is often ill. Giovanni made a splendid fight, for

a ten-months-old baby,— and recovered. But where was he to

spend his convalescence? To send him home would have been

to undo everything. The hospital has been paying for his

care in a Speedwell convalescent home. When he was re-

turned to his mother, not long ago, he was so plump and

well that she was hardly able to recognize him.

LAWRENCE, six and a half years old, was admitted to the

Babies' Wards with anaemia and chronic mastoid. A blood

transfusion did wonders for this child; but he also needed

fresh air and sunshine, special diet, and Alpine light treat-

ments. His family were unable to pay for these things. Thehospital sent him to a Speedwell convalescent home on LongIsland, where every one of the doctor's recommendations

is being carried out to the letter. The child is responding

splendidly to this care.

These are only a few out of

hundreds of similar cases. The hospital is doing

its best. Will you do yours—and help to save the

lives and health of these children?

$5,000 will establish a memorial bed to bear

permanently such name as the donor desires, and

will allow the donor to refer a patient to the hos-

pital for treatment, free of hospital charges, for

sixty days out of every year. Other occupants of

this bed, throughout the balance of the year, will

pay only the minimum ward rate and no profes-

sional fees to the visiting medical staff.

$xoo will care for a Supported Bed.

Money is also needed to give, to those who can-

not afford to pay, free blood transfusions, X-rays,

Alpine light treatments, special nursing and con-

valescent care.

The Morris Aron Organization

for Crippled Children

After the infantile paralysis epidemic of 191 6, the Post-Graduate Hospital, in cooperation

with what was then called the Thursday Hospital After-Care for Children, opened a clinic

for massage, together with suitable and systematic exercise. This clinic has since become

known as the Morris Aron Organization for Crippled Children. During the past year,

2539 treatments were given. Fifty-four children were registered. Braces and shoes and

other orthopedic appliances were provided by this organization for the crippled children

whose parents were unable to pay for them.
