ARTIFICIAL LIGHT TREATMENT.
The arrangements made last year for the provision
of Artificial Light Treatment for Tuberculosis
patients, chiefly non-pulmonary cases, at the City of
London Hospital for Diseases of the Heart and Lungs
were continued. During 1928, 3 patients had received
59 treatments under these arrangements.
PUBLIC HEALTH (PREVENTION OF
TUBERCULOSIS) REGULATIONS, 1925.
During the year, there came under observation a
newly-notified case of Tuberculosis in the person of the
wife of a dairyman. In view, however, of the facts
that there was no proof that the patient was in an
actively infectious state or that she took any regular
part in the business, it was deemed sufficient to caution
her verbally in the matter.
