One year's experience in a Ministry of Health dialysis centre.
A 10-bed dialysis unit, opened at the London Hospital in 1968, admitted 37 patients during its first year of operation. The aims of the unit were to prepare patients for renal transplantation and to provide instruction for dialysis treatment at home. A total of 2,012 days were spent in hospital, the average intervals between admission, the first dialysis, and discharge being 23.8 and 20 days, respectively. The overall number of readmissions was 1.5 per patient. These figures, together with the increasing number of patients accepted for such treatment, indicate the considerable number of supporting hospital beds, as well as medical and technical staff, required to maintain a dialysis unit.

Angiographic studies of Quinton-Scribner arteriovenous cannulae.
An analysis of 86 angiographic studies of Quinton-Scribner shunts has shown that these may be very useful in determining the cause and helping in the management of poorly functioning cannulae in patients on regular haemodialysis treatment.

Fatal cardiac tamponade complicating anticoagulant therapy in rheumatoid arthritis.
Haemopericardium with tamponade is a rare complication of anticoagulant therapy. A case of fatal haemopericardium is described in a patient with rheumatoid pericarditis in whom the precipitating factor appeared to be intravenous anticoagulant therapy.
