Accidents frequently happen in which the victim seems to have been orfatally injured, and yet the vital gans have not wholly ceased to fune tion. Respiration may cense and the heart stop functioning, producing a state of physiologic death, during which time the victim may sometimes be revived by the proper administra tion of artificial respiration. This may occur Id such accidents as drowning, electrocution and asphyxiation, and in some motor car accidents. The unfortunate and ap pnrently dead victims may not actu ally die for some time following the accident. Von Hoesslin reported before the Berlin Medical society that the electrocardiograph has demonstrated regular contractions of the heart continuing as long as 30 minutes after conphysiologic denth occurs. The tractions are strongest Immediately following the accident, and grow weaker gradually until the heart ceases entirely to function, except for occasional contractions, which occur at Irregular intervals. Therefore, it would be the period immediately following the accident that normal life may be restored by artificial respiration. Dr. Samuel R. Benedict of the Alabama Power company believes that Inmany persons have died following rebeen juries when they might have suscitated if artificial respiration had been promptly administered.
