Andrew Doughty
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "For". Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Use British English Andrew Gerald Doughty (2 September 1916, Lincoln – 2 June 2013)[1] was an English anaesthetist.
In 1957, he invented the Doughty gag, a modification of the Boyle-Davis gag for anaesthesia during adenotonsillectomy. It has a split blade, which allows use of an endotracheal tube and is in universal use to this day.[2][3] He was an early promoter of the use of epidural anaesthesia during childbirth.[4][5] In 1973, he set up an epidural course at Kingston Hospital. This two-week-long, one-on-one training course drew attendees from all over the world, and places had to be booked years in advance.[3]
He was born in 1916 in Lincoln and qualified from St Thomas's Hospital in 1941. In retirement Doughty lived in Thames Ditton.
