Visible injuries to the superficial tissues, which may result in permanent damage.2. Derangements of internal organs and changes in the blood. These are especially important, as their earlier manifestation is often unrecognized.General RecommendationsIt is the duty of those in charge of X-ray and radium departments to ensure efficient protection and suitable working conditions for the personnel.The following precautions are recommended:1. Not more than seven working hours a day.2. Sundays and two half-days off duty each week, to be spent as much as possible out of doors.3. An annual holiday of one month or two separate fortnights.Sisters and nurses, employed as whole-time workers in X-ray and radium departments, should not be called upon for any other hospital service.Protective MeasuresIt cannot be insisted upon too strongly that a primary precaution in all X-ray work, whether with stationary or portable sets, is to surround the X-ray bulb itself as completely as possible with adequate protective material, except for an aperture as small as possible for the work in hand.The protective measures recommended are dealt with under the following sections:I. X-rays for diagnostic purposes. II.X-rays for superficial (low-voltage) therapy.III.X-rays for deep (high-voltage) therapy.IV.Electrical precautions in X-ray departments.V.Ventilation of X-ray departments.VI.X-rays for industrial and research purposes.VII.Radium therapy.Article HistoryPublished in print: Aug 1924 FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsRecommended Articles RSNA Education Exhibits RSNA Case Collection Vol. 3, No. 2 Metrics Altmetric Score PDF download

Reminiscences of “After-care” Association, 1879—1898

As far back as 1871 a paper named “A Plea for Convalescent Homes in connection with Asylums for the Insane Poor” was admitted by the Editors, Drs. Maudsley and Sibbald, into the Journal of Mental Science. In 1879 an article called “After-care,” by the Rev. H. Hawkins, Chaplain of the Colney Hatch Asylum, was allowed a place in the same Journal. The then Editors were Drs. Clouston, Hack Tuke, and Savage. On the 5th June of the same year a meeting was held at the house of Dr. Bucknill, 39, Wimpole Street, to consider the subject of the “After-care of Poor and Friendless Female Convalescents on leaving Asylums for the Insane.” There were present Dr. and Mrs. Bucknill, Miss Cons, Dr. D. Hack Tuke, Mr. W. G. Marshall, Dr. Harrington Tuke, and others. A paper on the above-named subject was read. It was moved by Dr. C. Lockhart Robertson, and seconded by Dr. Hack Tuke—“That this meeting do form itself into an Association.” The names of Dr. S. Duckworth-Williams and of Dr. Savage were added to those already given. It was moved by Dr. Robertson, and seconded by Mr. W. Gr. Marshall—“That Dr. Bucknill be invited to take the office of President.” Also moved by Dr. Harrington Tuke, and seconded by Dr. Bucknill—“That the Rev. H. Hawkins take the office of Secretary.” These resolutions were unanimously carried. Later in the summer a meeting of ladies to consider the same subject was held at 84, Portland Place. Miss Cons consented to accept temporarily the office of Ladies' Secretary. Later in the same year another meeting was held at Dr. Bucknill's.
