FIRST TRANSFUSION RE
CORDED IN 1667
Tho first recorded
transfusion in human be
ings was performed in
1667 by Denys and Em
mery, when nine ounces
of lanbfs ' food wero
transfused with success
into the vein of a young
man. Later experiments
terminated with the
death of the fourth pa
tient transfused by
Denys. There followed
extensive loyal proceed
ings against him in tho
French courts, and fin
ally an edict of the
French Parliament spec
ifically prohibiting
transfusions closed fur
ther experimental work
for l^O years.
Blood transfusions
were again revived in
l8l8 by tho research of
James Blundell who de
veloped a crude techni
que of syringe trans
fusion. In 1913 there
were reported 128 human
blood transfusions by
Ottenborg and Kaliski.
