33 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 31 It will be seen frm the abve tables that, inclusive f transfers, 4,282 ward patients were treated and disch.arged during the year, and were in the Hspital fr a ttal f 68,560 days. The average duratin f stay f patients was 16 days. Thus the number f patients treated and the number f hspital days were greater than has been the case in previus years. On the ther hand, the number f private and semi-private patients treated has been smaller this year. This was t be expected, hwever, since the facilities fr travelling cntinue t be pr and many peple, bth Chinese and freign, have left Peking n accunt f the disturbed cnditins in China. In s far as the Hspital is cnsidered in the light f its primary purpse as a teaching institutin, the year has been mre successful than any pervius ne. There was n fighting in the vicinity, and while wund ed sldiers came t us f ~eir wn accrd fr treatment, their number was nt sufficient t interfere with the rutine wrk f the Hspital. The children's ward was in quarantine during the year fr 110 days. Sme f the factrs which cntributed tward making this excessive ttal will be eliminated when the new islatin ward is in peratin. The number f deaths in the Hspital was 224, which gives a mrtality rate f 5.5 as cmpared with 6.9 per cent fr last year. 114 autpsies were perfrmed, which shw an increase frm 28 per cent t 38 per cent. OUTPATIENT DEPARTMENT The Assistant Medical Superintendent has cntinued t act as Head f the Department. During the year 19,285 patients attended the clinics fr a ttal f 108,565 visits, which is an increase ver last year. With the exceptin f the medical and tlarynglgical clinics, there were mre patients treated by all services than ever befre. The fllwing table gives statistics in detail.

37 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT JS The duties f the Service were undertaken by Dr. Willner, the Cllege Physician, assisted by Drs. H. W Kuei, and c. L. Tung. The wrk in this department cnsists f three distinct parts: 1. Rutine examinatins, and preventive and curative treatment f staff and students. 2. a. Rutine examinatins, and preventive and curative treatment f emplyees and their families. b. Hme calls by public health nurse fr nursing and instructin f emplyees and their families. c. Survey f hme cnditins. 3. Prfessinal care f private patients in the Cnsultatin Office. The Cllege Physician als gives prfessinal attentin t the medical patients n the private wards. Private cases ther than medical are attended by specially appinted members f the departments. Because f the disturbed state f the cuntry and the incnvenience f travel the Cnsultatin Service has nt in increased in the usual way, as there have f necessity been fewer private patients frm places ther than Peking. The service invlved in the rutine health care f the staff has, hwever, shwn a satisfactry develpment.

As a grup f teachers in their respective fields they have been invaluable, and their departure will be keenly felt. Mrs. Kwe-pau Huang, the Dietitian, has als resi ned.

40 38 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF MEDICINE DR. J. HENG LIU Sir: M~dica' Superintmdmt f the P~Aing Unin Medical Cllegt Hspital The rganizatin f the Medical Service f the Hspital is set frth in the Manual f the Department f Medicine, a secnd editin f which was prepared by Dr. Cheer and issued during the past year. The Manual is a bk f 150 dd pages, and cntains in additin t the abve infrmatin, directins fr the perfrmance f the varius diagnstic and therapeutic prcedures, and is f great service t the junir members f the staff. During the year the Medical Service has participated in extensive revisins f the Frmulary, f the diet list, and f the regulatins in regard t cmmunicable diseases. The last named have been greatly simplified. There have been n imprtant changes in the ward service. Especial attentin has been given t the training f the huse staff and an effrt made t cunteract the all-t-prevalent tendency t regard a patient's cnditin as the sum f the varius labratry repns. The visiting physicians have clsely fllwed the wrk f the junir men and f the clinical clerks. It is hped that assistant residents will remain lnger in residence, since it is during this perid that clinical ability receives its greatest develpment. Each man will als be given an pprtunity t take part in the wrk f' ne f the clinical labratries. During the fllwing year the huse fficers will serve thrughut the year n the medical services, and it is expected that this will bring a real imprvement in the care f patients. The metablism unit in 1-3 has given excellent service and the need fr its extensin, at least during the greater part f the year, is still felt. There has als been a need fr mre beds fr wmen patients. On several ccasins the lack f prper facilities fr the care f patients with cntagius diseases has been felt. The prjected building fr this purpse will make pssible better prtectin f the children's ward frm quarantine and the prper training f junir members f the staff and nurses. The care f patients with tuberculsis is a prblem t meet which there is n prvisin. It is expensive and hampers

41 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 39 the service t have patients with such chrnic cnditins remain lng in the wards. The Cnvalescent Hstel is f cnsiderable help in this directin in cnnectin with ther diseases. Weeldy staff runds in cnjunctin with the Department f Neurlgy have been cntinued. A bi-weekly jurnal club and a weekly x-ray cnference were started. These general activities, tgether with the clinical pathlgical cnferences, are well attended and are f the greatest imprtance in the clinical training f the yunfler men. CLINICS l'he utpatient clinics have cntinued withut significant changes. The gastr-intestinal clinic was starte-d again by Dr. Smyly, wh als undertk a sigmidscpic service which is imprtant in the care f patients with dysentery, and tk ver the kala-azar clinic. Dr. K. H. Li cnducted the cardiac clinic. It is hped that in the future greater cntinuity f service thrughut the year may be maintained by visiting physicians s that patients may be cntinuusly under the care f the same physicians. In many ways the medical utpatient clinics have participated in administrative imprvementi in cnnectin with the admissin and ruting f patients. In particular, the staff has been furnished with a simplified Frmulary, and by c-peratin with the Pharmacy there has been a great reductin in the time taken in filling prescriptins. The pediatric utpatient clinic has been placed in charge f Dr. Ts wh has made several imprvements in the service. It is hped that this clinic will grw a great deal in the future. LABORATORIES The wrk f the clinical labratry is nw upn a smewhat different basis. Ordinary qualitative examinatins are dne in the ward labratries. Dr. Meleney supervises a service which has the fll~wing functins: prviding supplies and supervisin fr the ward labratries; examining rutine specimens frm the utpatient clinics and private patient clinics, and ccasinally special specimens frm the wards; training student technicians. The wrk dne in the central labratry is nw s small a part f the ttal that n figures are given in ~e

42 40 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL annexed table, since statistics cannt be gathered fr the ward labratries and wuld nt, in any case, be f interest. The rutine wrk f the ther clinical labratries f the Department is analysed in the appended table, namely, the quantitative chemical analyses, basal metablism determinatins, electrcardigrams, and examinatins fr spirchaetes and tubercle bacilli.

43 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 41 PERSONNEL The imprtant changes in persnnel have been as fllws. Frm September t the end f December, Dr. David L. Edsall, Dean f Harvard Medical Schl, served as Visiting Prfessr, and thrughut the year Dr. H. L. Keirn f the University f Michigan was n the staff as Assciate Prfessr f Dermatlgy and Syphillgy. The Department has received great stimulus frm these tw visiting members f the staff, and Dr. Edsall's help in reviewing the wrk f the Medical Service and his encuragement cannt be verestimated. Dr. C. A. Mills, f Cincinnati, assumed charge f the wrk in clinical chemistry and metablism as Assciate Prfessr. Dr. Smyly returned frm furlugh. Dr. Hammnd, wh was n furlugh, resigned. Drs. Frazier and Cheer went n furlugh, and Dr. Hrvath resigned. Dr. Liu Shih-ha was appinted Medical Resident. An additinal part-time physician, Dr. C. H.

44 42 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF NEUROLOGY DR. J. HENG LIU Sir: Medical Superintendent f tit, Pdinr Unin Medical ClltLe Hspital Allw me t submit the fllwing reprt f the wrk f the Department f Neurlgy in the Hspital frm July 1, 1926 t June 30, NUMBER AND CLASSIFICATION OF PATIENTS The neurlgical patients f the Hspital arise frm the fllwing surces: (1) Outpatients Ttal number f individuals in 12 mnths 891- Ttal number f visits in 12 mnths 1,926 This service was carried n thrughut the year in the temprary cubicles n the secnd flr f K-building. 1 he patients as a rule are first seen by ther departments, and after varying perids are _referred t the neurlgists. This indirectness is due t the difficulty in crrectly classifying patients as neurlgical, since as they enter the Outpatient Department they have t be rapidly assig~ed t the varius services. (2) Public ward patients Ttal number f individuals Ttal number f days in ward beds Average stay f each patient 132 2, days Only five ward-beds are assigned by the Hspital fr male neurlgical patients, and tw fr female patients. N psychtic patients are intenrinal1y admitted t the wards. Psychneurtic patients are better cared fr in specially rganized wards; but since such wards are nt available, we frequently have been able t imprve the cnditins f these patients in the general wards. Our experience leads us t believe that a cnsiderable prprtin f the suffering and the ecnmic disability f Chinese patients is due

45 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 43 t faulty emtinal adjustment t their circumstances. Owing t certain peculiar cnditins under which Eurpeans and Americans live and wrk in China, the incidence f psychneurses in them is relatively high. (3) Cnsultatins n patients in ther departments. 416 (4) Private patients, ffice cnsultatins 106 Of the 946 diseases f the nervus rgans diagnsed, paralytic dementia cnstituted three quarters f ne per cent; meningitis (nnsyphilitic), ne per cent; myelitis (nn-syphilitic), ne and ne-half per cent; neuralgia, ne and ne-half per cent; tuberculsis, ne and ne-half per cent; tabes, tw and ne-half per cent; beriberi, fur per cent; epilepsy, five and ne-half per cent; vascular disease, seven and ne-half per cent; traumatic cases, seven and ne-half per cent; neuritis, nine and ne-half per cent; syphilis, seventeen per cent; psychneurses and neurasthenia cnstituted twenty-ne per cent f all diagnses. TEACHING The supply f clinical cases has been sufficient fr the bedside teaching f the medical students. The anatmicaj, physilgical, and pathlgical facts and principles exemplified by the syphilitic, encephalitic, and traumatic cases alne have been many and imprtant, and indicate that clinical neurlgy can be adequately learned by the medical students f China thrugh the study f actual cases. A curse f lectures and demnstratins was given by Dr. Wds and Dr. devries t the pupil nurses. Tw lectures were given by Dr. Wds t the Department f Ecnmics and Scilgy f Yenching University. NEUROPATHOLOGICAL LABORATORY Dr. de Vries has supervised the labratry wrk f the Department, and has studied and made reprts upn all f the brains, spinal crds, and ther nervus tissues remved in autpsies by the Department f Pathlgy and in the varius perating rms.

46 H PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL PERSONNEL Dr. Ernst de Vries has been in direct charge f the public ward patients thrughut the year. Dr. Mn-fah Chung was Assistant in the wards and chief f the Outpatient service until Octber, at which time he returned t Hnlulu t enter private practice. He was succeeded by Dr. Vii-lin Wei, Assistant and Assistant Resident. Dr. Yung-kuang Wang entered the Neurlgical Department in Nvember as Assistant, and cntinued in the service until June 30, The clinical wrk f the Department has been furthered by the additin f ne interne fr each mnth, assigned t Neurlgy as part f the rtating interne system f the Department f Medicine. Miss Lucy Fairchild, head technician in the.neurpathlgical labratry, was frced t resign in December, and later t return t America because f ill-health. The Department suffered thus a serius lss in its immediate wrk, and a yet farther-reaching lss in that pupil technicians, wh were t have been trained by her, culd nt be prepared fr the future wrk f the labratry.

47 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF SURGERY DR. J. HENG LIU, Sir: Medical Superintendent f the Peking Unin Medical Cllegl Hspital Since Peking and its envirns during the past year have been relatively free frm civil war, the Department f Surgery has nt been verburdened with military surgery, althugh we have had ccasinal gunsht wund cases. The develpment f the clinical material has, therefre, been alng nrmal lines, and there has been steady grwth in bth private and public cases. The statistical tables give the details f diagnses and peratins, an analysis f which brings_ ut sme items f especial interest. Our abdminal wrk, fr example, has increased markedly, gastric peratins 80 per cent, appendectmies and hernias 30 per cent. Transfusins have been resrted t mre freely, 88 being dne during the year. This has, n dubt, reduced the mrtality amng ur cases, and shrtened cnvalescence. Skin grafting has als been dne with greater frequency, thus lwering the number f hspital days per patient, and liberating much needed beds. Since we began t treat the majrity f utpatients by injectin, there has been a sharp fall in the number f hemrrhidectmies dne in the perating rm, and beds have been freed fr mre acute cases. The immediate results f ur year's wrk are nt available nw in statistical frm. It is planned t hld mnthly staff cnferences during the cming year, when a "medical audit" can be carried ut, and errrs in diagnses and results checked up prmptly. Sixty-fur deaths ccurred during the year, f which cases seven had nt been perated upn. As there were 1,193 peratins dne, this gives us an perative mrtality f abut 5.4 per cent. A review f the causes f death shws that 10 per cent were ascribed t pstperative pulmnary cmplicatins,s per cent t suppurative pleurisy,

48 46 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL and 12 per cent t acute diffuse peritnitis. The ten deaths which resulted frm cellulitis, carbuncles, and similar cnditins make bvius the fact that we shuld strive tward a better understanding and treatment f these severe infectins. It is nly by facing these failures squarely that we can hpe fr imprvement in ur resu1ts. The unimprved cases als will be clsely studied. Autpsies were dne n 50 per cent f the surgical deaths. effrt is being made t increase this percentage. An TEACHING General instructin has been carried ut accrding t schedule. The class wrk has, n the whle, been quite satisfactry. A change has been made, effective the first f July, whereby there will be n internes n the Surgical Service. The resident staff is t cnsist f ten assistant residents and furth year clinical clerks under a Resident in Surgery. GRADUATE COURSE There was n regular graduate curse given fr dctrs during the year, althugh the Department welcmed a number f physicians as visitrs. It is planned fr the cming year t admit graduates as assistant residents fr a term f three mnths, it being felt that mre satisfactry I instructin can be given in this way. One f the ten assistant residencies has been held pen fr this purpse, and there are already sufficient applicatins t keep this pst filled thrughut the year. RESEARCH Several members f the Department carried n research wrk during the past year, Dr. Kwan and Dr. Tung n surgery f the thrax and esphagus, and Dr. Shen n tea in the treatment f burns and the technique f silk sterilizatin. Further wrk in perfecting methds f aseptic intestinal anastmses has als been carried n. This investigatin was begun by Dr. Jerme Webster.

49 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 47 GENITO-URINRAY DIVISION Since last September female urlgical cases frmerly treated in the Department f Obstetrics and Gyneclgy have been taken ver int this divisin. The imprtance f this service is being mre and mre realized, and many patients have been!eferred frm ut f twn. Althugh there has been a cntinuus grwth, we are lking frward t rendering a larger service in the future. DIVISION OF ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY The wrk f the Divisin f Orthpedic Surgery during the past year has nt been unusual in any way. The absence f lcal military strife resulted in a great decrease in the number f cases f fresh gunsht wunds admitted t the Hspital, and has permitted the rthpedic clinic t return t a status mre nearly nrmal. A great prprtin f the cases in this Divisin cntinues t be thse f jint tuberculsis, and chiefly f the chrnic neglected type. Ostemyelitis als is very frequently seen, as are ld dislcatins and malunin f fractures. The gradual increase in the number f cases f infantile paralysis cming t us thrughut the year has been interesting t bserve. A distinct change was made in the teaching f Orthpedic Surgery this year. Heretfre a series f lectures was given, and the lecture subjects illustrated either by lantern slides r demnstrative cases. This year it was thught wise t emply the methd f case teaching alne, in the frm f a clinic, using patients whenever pssible as the subject fr discussin and as demnstratins fr teaching. The third and furth year classes attended these clinics n alternate Tuesdays thrughut the year. The result f the methd this year was that, because f lack f varied illustrative cases, a less cmprehensive knwledge f rthpedic cnditins in general was btained by the students. Hwever, thse subjects which were discussed will prbably make a deeper impressin upn the student mind.

51 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT +9 PERSONNEL At the clse f the year the Head f the Department, Dr. A. S. Taylr, resigned, and returned t America t enter private practice. It is unnecessary t say that this entails a tremendus lss t the Depanment. Dr. J. R. B.

52 SO PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY DR. J. HENG LIU, Sir: Medical Superintendent f the PeRing Unin Medical C(Jllege Hspital CLINICS Our clinics have steadily grwn. The number f patients attending the antenatal clinics, and f patients admitted t the maternity ward have increased in spite f the disturbed plitical cnditin. There has been increased c-peratin between the Public Health Demnstratin Statin and urselves, t the mutual benefit f bth services. There have been fewer deliveries utside the Hspit~l than during last year. This is partly due t the fact that mre patients t whm we were called have been persuaded t becme inpatients, and have been brught in by ambulance, and partly t there having been n attempt t develp this branch f the wrk. It is hped, hwever, that mre may be dne in this respect during the year that is cming. Fllw-up wrk has been steadily develped, and every bstetrical and gyneclgical case is apprached at the end f ne mnth, six mnths, and a year, and invited, besides answering the frmal questins, t cme and see us free f charge. Changes in the curriculum and the abandnment f the rtating service fr internes have made alteratins in the methds f wrk imperative, s that it is a little difficult t cmpare with the previus year, but the wrk has shwn steady grwth. TEACHING The usual undergraduate classes have been held, and Instructin n cases f labr is nw undertaken in a much mre systematic fashin, the students having t present t the Prfessr

53 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 51 within twenty-fur hurs a cmplete reprt f each case attended. These reprts are criticized at the regular Saturday clinic. The cmmencement f maternity training in its practical sense has nw been placed in the' third trimester f the third year, and during the clerkships f the furth year each student will, in additin t his statutry cases, deliver, under supervisin, sme f the patients. Classes have been held in bth bstetrics and gyneclgy fr the student nurses f the third year. The intensive graduate curse was held as usual in the mnth f September, and was well attended in spite f the difficulties f travel. The plans fr giving an advanced curse f maternity training t a picked grup f graduate nurses prved t be impssible wing t lack f applicatins, and fr ther causes. It seems likely that this scheme will be abandned, but it is pssible that we may be able t c-perate with the Public Health Demnstratin Statin in a new plan which is nw under cnsideratin. RESEARCH All the members f the visiting staff have been engaged n research prblems. The Prfessr has cntinued his studies n stemalacia, and n the ld bstetrical and gyneclgical wrks in China. Papers n the latter subject are nw in the press. He has als been engaged n the translatin int Chinese f a vlume f clinical lectures n bstetrics and gyneclgy. Dr. Eastman has cntinued his studies n the bld sedimentatin test in the puerperium, and h as als taken up ther prblems, especially thse bearing relatin t pregnancy txaemia.

56 54 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL DR. J. HENG LIU Sir: REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF OPHTHALMOLOGY Medical Superintendent f tlu PekinE Unin Medical Cl/eEe Hspital There has been a gratifying increase in the number f visits t the utpatient clinic f the Department f Ophthalmlgy, but, in rder t prvide sufficient material fr all the teaching that the Department is called upn t d, the clinic shuld be mre than twice as large as it is at present. When the new utpatient building is ready, there shuld be adequate facilities fr handling a much larger clinic. The number f inpatients remains abut the same frm year t year. N increase is pssible because f the limited number f beds. We have had several plasmma cases under ur charge, mst f which respnded well t radium applicatins. We cntinue t have a prprtinably large number f glaucma and a small number f cataract cases. Frm several years' experience we are led t believe that cataract is less cmmn in Nrth China than in any ther part f Asia, r in Eurpe and America, while glaucma is mre cmmn than m these ther cuntries. TEACHING In additin t the undergraduate curse, the usual intensive curse f ne mnth's duratin fr graduate students was given by Dr. Pi and the ther assistants. The curse was given, as last year, in the Chinese language. The enrllment f graduate students fr the entire year was 21, including 10 wh attended the special curse. RESEARCH Dr. Ling has taken ver frm Dr. Li the respnsibility fr the pathlgical wrk and investigatins in that field. Dr. Pi has carried n mst f the bacterilgical investigatins. Special investigatins

58 S6 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL DR. J. HE~G LIU Sir: REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF OTOLARYNGOLOGY Medical Superintendent f the Pelcing Hspital Unin Medical Cllegt The wrk f the utpatient clinic has been divided amng the staff, and has increased; a study f the statistics will ~hw a larger vlume f wrk dne this year than in any previus year. Dr. King has cntinued with the Methdist Hspital Clinic three times a week. Frm time t time he has brught int the Peking Unin Medical Cllege Hspital difficult cases which he has encuntered in this clinic. On several ccasins members f the staff have c-perated with the physician in the Health Center in the examinatin f schl children. As a result f these examinatins sme patients have been admitted t the clinic fr further treatment, and t the Hspital fr tnsil and adenid peratins. PRIVATE CONSULTATION AND REFER SERVICE The private clinic, especially fr freigners, has been cnsiderably reduced this year wing t the cntinued difficulties f transprtatin and the plitical unrest thrughut Nrth China which has prevented many patients cming frm any distance fr treatment. On the ther hand, as was the case last year, many Chinese in Peking have availed themselves f this service. SURGERY The perative wrk f this service has been apprximately that f last year. The increase in precipitatin in this lcality, principally in the frm f the winter's snw, has apparently reduced the amunt f upper respiratry infectins which, in frmer years, led t a great

Cnsequently there have been fewer cases f mastiditis amng bth freigners and Chinese, althugh there has been a slight increase in the number f tnsillectmies and nasal peratins. WEEKLY STAFF CONFERENCES On Friday evenings frm eight t ten, the staff has met in cnference t review thse cases f the week which caused special cncern. Recent articles f interest in the current medical literature have als been reviewed.

There is n reasn t think that ur present system f btaining permissin fr autpsies will ever enable us t secure sufficient pathlgical material t meet the demands f a teaching hspital. In view f the pressing needs f ur institutin we strngly reiterate ur recmmendatin that permissin fr. autpsy be required f all third class patients upn entry t the Hspital. In this cnnectin we shuld like t pint ut that t a limited extent die tuberculsis clinic has pursued this plicy with great success fr the past tw years. The ttal number f surgical pathlgical specimens has shwn a slight decrease fr the past year. This service, hwever, has been a very active ne and the material excellent.

We have n desire t effect any radical changes in the present system, but shuld like t call attentin t the fact that many f the yunger members f the clinical staff are missing an essential part f their training by having all f this wrk dne fr them. We therefre suggest that the varius departments ur2'e their men t becme familiar with the practical applicatin f these prcedures under the supervisin f the present staff in the clinical labratry f bacterilgy and serlgy. We will gladly give them every facility t accmplish this task rapidly, and, in selected cases, affrd means fr wrk n special prblems.

Severinghaus has carefully wrked ut a set f English lessns based upn the vcabulary which the nurses need n the wards f the Hspital. We plan t have every nurse cminf n ur staff cmplete this curse f lessns. If the nurse has cnsiderable knwledge f English, he r she may cmplete the curse in ne semester; if English is limited, it will require tw semesters r even lnger. Miss Ida M. Dwns cnducted a very interesting class in Histry f Nursing fr the graduates whse English is mst advanced. Twice during the year Miss Hilda Wang gave a 50-hur curse in Nursing prcedure t all new appintees t the staff. This wrk is given in Chinese. Because we have had an unusual number f new nurses during the year, an extra burden f supervisin has been laid upn the practical nursing instructrs as we} as the head nurses. In February, 1927, tw nurses enrlled fr a graduate curse in Surgical Nursing, but ne was called back t his hspital befre the cmpletin f his curse.

71 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 69 REPORT OF MEDICAL SOCIAL SERVICE DR. J. HENG LIU Sir: Medical Superintmdent f the PelinE Unin Medical Clltze Hspital When scial service was started in the Pekin2" Unin Medical Cllege Hspital in 1921 there was a questin whether such wrk culd be dne at all in China. Therefre, during the first five years attentin has been directed mainly tward case wrk and seeing if, as a therapeutic prcess, scial service is a pssibility. It has been fund that many cases can be seen t a successful cnclusin in the Hspital and back int a nrmal scial life, that recvery is greatly hastened if the patient is gt int a better scial r mental cnditin, r if a given curse f treatment is fllwed in the hme. If n medical aid is pssible, peaceful last days can be arranged fr the patient by the effrts f scial service. Althugh frmal resurces are limited in extent, the family and friends stand by the patient in a way that makes up t sme extent fr the lack f such resurces. Furthermre, persnality prblems cannt be settled by mney alne, and their slutin ften lies in the skill f the wrkers in adapting existing situatins t the needs f the patients. It had been felt that the wrk f the Medical Scial Service was t detached frm that f the Hspital as a whle. T vercme this difficulty the Head Wrker made a survey f the field while n furlugh in America. As a result f this study, a system similar t that f the Presbyterian Hspital, New Yrk, was started upn her return. Wrkers are nw assigned t special clinical services, s that every patient is knwn persnally, scial prblems are taken care f as they arise and in c-peratin with the physician in charge; the scial service ntes are entered in the individual's histry. In this way the scial wrk is inte2"rated with the ther departments s that the patient, the physician, the Hspital, and the cmmunity are all served with the least duplicatin f effrt and with the best results.

72 70 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL Tw wrkers e-ive their full time t the Surgical Service. and-the Medical Service is cvered n the men's medical ward, the wmen's mixed ward, and the children's ward. The Obstetrical Service als is cared fr. Wrk frm the ther departments still cmes in by the refer methd, and is taken care f by whmever happens t be free in the Scial Ser~ice at the time. Only a bee-inning has been made, and there are nt, as yet, sufficient wrkers. It is hped, hwever, that with the new wrkers wh.are cming in the autumn all services will be adequately taken care f. Special wrk has been dne in the tuberculsis clinic, and a half day a week has been e-iven t the Public Health Center. Much incidental fllw-up has been dne t aid in special studies, but this will be ~reatly lessened when all the services are cvered. Then the ward patients will all be knwn persnally, and nt nly wi1l less effrt be required t secure the patient's return, but a larg~r percentage f returns can be effected. The filing f the scial ntes, bth f investie-atin and f actin taken, in the unit histry is fdt t he a distinct advantage, as they are then in a frm t be used by all f the Hspital staff. The backgrund frm which a patient cmes and the settine- t which he returns are thus recrded with the histry f the illness. Addresses f friends and f members f the family are als secured t aid in keeping in tuch with the patient. TEACHING Owing t the smallness f the staff, there has nt been much teachine- dne. Lectures have been given t the students f the Yenching Scilgy Department by Miss Ch' en and Miss Pruitt, and t the public health nursing grup by Miss Pruitt and Miss Yu.

73 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 11 THE CONVALESCENT HOSTEL FOR MEN The Cnvalescent Hstel fr Men has cntinued t be an imprtant adjunct t the wrk f the Hspital.

74 72 PEKING UNION MEDICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL CARE OF TUBERCULOUS PATIENTS The tuberculsis fllw-up wrk is ne f the mst imp~rtant and, at the same time, mst difficult prblems which the Service is "Called upn t slve. It is bviusly ut f the questin t attempt t care fr all the patients wh cme t the hspital wards and the utpatient clinics suffering frm tuberculsis. The factrs which make the wrk difficult are; 1. The scarcity f places where the patients can be cared fr and t which they can be referred. (There are three fr men and ne fr wmen.) 2. Financial difficulties f patients. a. Inability t pay the fees char&red by the sanatrium. b. Inability t abandn the wrk which may mean the sle supprt f a large family. c. Inability t pay fr the prper fd advised by the Hspital. 3. The difficulty t impress upn thse suffering frm the mild r beginning frms f the disease the necessity f giving up their ccupatins and f taking prlnged treatment. Sixty-ne patients were intensively cared fr by the Service durinr the year. Of these, six have returned t part-time wrk, thirty-tw are still n the fllw-up list f the Service, seven have died f the disease, and sixteen have been lst t ur recrds. KALA-AZAR AND CARDIAC PATIENTS The fllw-up f these cases has given satisfactin t the Service as well as t the clinical staff. Of a ttal f seventeen kala-azar patients, eilrht are still being treated, fur were discharged as cured, fur were lst t ur recrds, and ne died. patients were men and fur were wmen. Thirteen f these

75 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT 13 During the year sixty-six cardiac patients were cared fr. Of these twenty-ne were new patients, three Were returned t their hmes, five were transferred t anther service, nine were lst t ur recrds, seven died, tw were discharged as cured, eleven were ld patients, and eight refused t return. Of these patients twentynine were wmen and thirty-seven were men. THE CARE OF CHILDREN One f the mst dramatic and pleasant services, thugh bulking small in numbers, is the care f the illegitimate and unwanted babies wh are accepted as wards by the scial service. Befre accepting a baby as a ward, a careful investigatin is made f the family, and persns applying fr babies are als carefully investigated befre a child is given in adptin. Cntact is subsequently maintained with the adpting family t ensure prper care. During the year sixteen babies were cared fr. Seven have been placed in gd hmes, fur in ther institutins, and three have died. Tw are still beine cared fr by the Service. During the past year fur babies were brugh~ int the Hspital frm the Qutside at the request f the Divisin f Pediatrics fr special metablism study. FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS The Medical Service has aided in, r undertaken cmplete charge f funeral arrangements fr ut-f-twn patients wh have died in the Hspital. Sme staff members have als availed themselves f the department's assistance in funeral arrangements. There were twenty-seven burials in the Cllege cemetery. These were all Chinese with the 'exceptin f ne Krean and ne Russian. PERSONNEL The past year has been ne f many changes. Miss Ingram was seriusly ill during the autumn, during which time Miss K. C.
