WASHINGTON. D. C. SEPTEMBER 23, 1928—PART G DIAGNOSE HEART ILLS WITH LAMP Instrument Is Used in Pho- tographing Record of Puise Wave. NEW ORLEANS (#).—7ihe helium- filled glow lamp, said to be capable of becoming lighted and extinguished in a millionth of a second, has been brought to the aid of physicians in the diagnosis of heart ailments. A device utilizing two such lamps has been developed by Dr. Roy H. Tur- ner of the Tulane University School of Medicine with satisfactory results in making photographic records of the ve- locity of the pulse wave, which shows the rate at which the heart pumps blood through the veins. The instrument is so arranged that the arrival of the pulse wave at a given flash being focused and photographed on a time-marked film moving at a fixed speed. One advantage of thc helium-filled lamp over the neon-filled varlety, Dr. Turner explains, is that it gives a whitish light which can be pho- tographed more readily than the orangc glow produced by the other gas when its -soms are broken by the electrical charges. By this method, carbon grain micro- phones are hooked up through ampli- fiers with the two lamps, which do not become lighted until the potential across their electrodes passes above 120 volts. The microphones are so mounted directly over arteries in the wrist and neck that the pulse, by varying the pressure on the carbon granules, causes fluctuations in the direct electrical cur- rents passing through them and there- by produces the measured flashing of th2 lamps. A record of th> compara- tive duration and intensity of the heart’s movements is made simuita- neously on the same film with leads from an arm and leg. STEAMSHIPS.
