C.B.E., has won honor for herself by an important medical discovery' which is the result of research and observation over a number of years. ' .' , The discovery, which has justi been, announced in: London is; that ' prematurely born babies kept in an oxygen tent which ! contained too - rich a. supply of oxygen often , became perma-; nently blind., .... - . . . j Dr. Campbell, .who has been j lecturer in neo-natal pediatrics to University . students at . the ! Melbourne Women's hospital clinics since 1929 and is hono rary pediatrician at the Queen Victoria hospital, Melbourne, suspected several years ago that a too-rich oxygen supply could have this effect. She engaged in further- study and noted that this incidence of blindness was rot prevalent before 1947 and that it was particularly bad in America. The use of oxygen tents for premature babies dates from 1947 and they were more wide ly used in the U.S.A. than else where. She also noted the varia tion in the incidence of blind ness in the hospitals with which she was associated. At the -Women's hospital which had the most readily available supply of oxy gen (achieved by the turn of the tap) there was the highest inci dence; . at the Queen Victoria where it was supplied in . cylin ders and, therfeore, not so lav ishly administered there was loss blindness, and in private hospitals where supplies were rather meager at times, very few cases occurred. In 1951 Dr. Campbell wrote a paper for the "Medical .Journal of Australia" explaining what she had discovered. Oversea doc tors were quick to follow up Dr Campbel's discovery which solv ed a problem that had lorig' puz zled the " prof ession. , , Dr. Campbell's: award of the C.B.E., in the, 1954-55 New .Year's. Honours . List; was large ly in acknowledgment .of her valuable discovery. " ; A new car coat by White Stag has a button - off convertible hood.
