Medical Profession Seeks
Recognition for Iron Lung
Memphis, Tenn. !U.PJ The
medical profession here has dug
deep into past records and is
ready to support a 78-ycar-old
semi-retired physician's claim
that he's really the man behind
the first iron lung.
Dr. Charles Morgan Ham
mond is on the sidelines looking
on, while the Memphis and Shel
by County Medical Society is
taking the initiative to get the
iron lung credit for. Hammond.
Hammond isn't seeking recogni
tion. All I want to do is to help
people," the elderly doctor said.
Hammond said he has "a
couple of ideas, for an upright
respirator for heart patients.
Doctors here support Ham
mond's claim that he invented
and patented the world's first
iron lung.
Hammond was never able to
get his invention into production
because of limited finances. He
failed to renew his original
patent when it expired, and
other respirators began appear
ing on the market.
Some of the modern machines
use centrifugal pumps to regu
late air pressure; others use the
bellows principle of Hammond's
first simple apparatus.
Finally Hammond's name
dropped out of the picture, his
original work forgotten. Until
now, when younger doctors hope
to get him recognition by the
American Medical Association's
library, the surgeon general's li
brary and Enclyclopedia Bii-
tannica.
Dr. Henry Gotten heads a
committee to support Ham
mond's case. It was pointed out
that most authorities and ency
clopedias gave credit to Philip
Drinker and Louis A. Shaw of
the Harvard School of Public
Health in Boston, who developed
an iron lung in 1928.
Gotten said that records in the
U.S. Patent Office certify that
Hammond actually originated
the machine years earlier. Rec
ords show that Hammond filed
his patent on Jan. 12. 1911, and
the patent No. 1087942 was
granted Feb. 24, 1914, Gotten
explained.
The patent expired 15 years
later when Hammond failed to
renew it. The Drinker machine
was patented in 1931.
The white-haired Hammond, a
graduate of the old Memphis
Medical college, had hung out
his doctor's shingle on a huge
cotton plantation below West
Memphis, Ark.
He suffered an attack of pleur
isy while making calls on horse
back While bedridden, Ham
mond thought how he might
breathe easier if he could reduce
the atmospheric pressure over
his inflamed chest.
Hammond figured that a ma
chine that could alternately
rarefy and condense the air over
the chest would, in effect,
breathe for the patient, and give
his lungs a rest.
Diminishing the pressure
would force the lungs to take in
air, increasing it would force air
out, thus accomplishing the
breathing process with a mini
mum of effort.
Hammond made preliminary
sketches and got a carpenter-mechanic
to work on building the

first crude respirator. He recalls
it was a strange-looking contrap
tion. He Tried It
The machine consisted of a
casing which fit over the upper
part of the body, and made com
paratively air-tight by snug-fitting
rubber attachments for
neck, arms and legs.
A flexible tube extended from
the top of the casing to a liand
operated bellows, which
pumped air in and out of the en
closure. Hammond tried the machine
himself.
"I got inside and had my me
chanic tighten it up," he recalls.
"When he raised up on the hol
lows I was talking away, giving
instructions, and it cut me off. It
frightened the mechanic, but I
knew it was doing exactly what

I had expected."
In 1909 Hammond completed
his first motor-driven respira
tor incorporating the basic prinr
ciples which he later patented.
Three years later the- machine
passed its first clinical test when
a despondent man who had taken
morphine and was near death,
was placed in the resuscitator.
Five hours later, Hammond said,
the man was out of danger.
Hammond has yellowed news
paper clippings telling how his
respirator breathed life into per
sons dying of pneumonia, heat
prostration, gas and ether nar
cosis, infantile paralysis and
o t h er conditions paralyzing
breathing.
Hammond built his first cabinet-type
respirator in 1919, a
machine which covered the en
tire torso and extremities, simi
lar to respirators in use' today.
His wife, a former nurse was
his technical assistant. Years
later, Hammond developed a spe
cial attachment which rarefies
the air over the head to counter
balance sudden alteration of air
over the torso, this produced
more normal respiration.
