Page 9 Page Doctors' hopes of Barney Clark overcoming another of a series of complications were destroyed when they were forced to turn off his pump after determining Clark's lack of neurological function Wednesday night. "Last night we lost a very dear friend and a man we believe will forever stand as one of the greatest pioneers in the history of the advancement of medical research for mankind," Dr. Lyle Joyce said in a press conference Thursday afternoon. recipient began to Joyce explained that the artificial-hea- rt show signs of kidney deterioration and bowel infection March 19. By Wednesday afternoon the infection demonstrated itself much more severely, and doctors knew they were facing a series of problems which involved multiple organs. Dr. William C. DeVries, who performed the implantation surgery, said dialysis was ruled out because Clark was too sick. He had vascular problems, pulmonary deficiencies and kidney failure, which led to a collapse of his circulatory system. "It became obvious at the end that he was neurologically not responsive to any stimuli that we gave him, DeVries said "His blood pressure was at the point that it was essentially incapable of sustaining life in any form we knew." The medical team, in consultation with Una Loy Clark, agreed he was "essentially dead, and this courageous man's heart was turned off' at 10:02 p.m. Dr. William Cathey, who performed an autopsy on the implant recipient, said Clark's plastic Jarvik-- 7 heart continued to pump normally as infection poured toxins into his blood. "Acute colitis was probably the immediate cause of death," he said. "The raw surface in the colon apparently absorbed toxins from : the bowel, causing circulatory collapse." DeVries said the autopsy showed there was no evidence of . infection or infarction except in the colon.. ; "Many people say the heart is the seat of the soul, the site of life. It's basically a pump, and if not very much blood gets to one side, not much goes out,? said DeVries explaining what happened to Clark, whose blood vessels were so dilated that no pressure could be maintained. - The pump had sustained the life of Clark for 1 12 days, and DeVries! said the plastic heart, which will be kept by the University, for further study, "looked as good as the day it was put in."

"The purpose of this experimentation is twofoldone, to gain scientific information as to the use of this device; the second to help someone in dire need." Dc Vries said. "It may very well be that the next patient may be very similar to Clark. His illness is not something that should disqualify him from the study. He obtained much out of it, as did we." DeVries said doctors learned a great deal about the body's response to a fixed heart rate. They also learned that the circulatory system was actually more important than the heart's function in regulating activities. "It takes a lot more than the heart to keep someone alive," he said. "It's a correlation between all of the organs together to make the living being and it wasn't merely one heart keeping everything alive, it was the whole organism's response, and they day-to-d- ay failed ; together." Dr. F. Ross WooUey, chairman of the artificial-hea- rt subcommittee for the University's Institutional Review Board, said Thursday the next implantation will occur only when the entire IRB finishes working with DeVries in comprising a new continued on page five Budget hike i. tohplddowh enrollment by Steve Green C) Chronicle staff Because the state can't; or won't fund enrollment growth at the University, Leon Robertson, vice president for budget and resource planning said administrators have to find a way to hold enrollment down.

"Tuition for the 500 will not pay for the increased costs," Robertson said. The result? According to Robertson: The University will attempt to counsel more marginal students out of school. A significant number of students will not , get the courses they need. , v . The University will get by with fewer equipment purchases, supplies and trips. Faculty members, who got no pay raises, will begin to look at alternative positions outside of the University.
