Andrew Doughty
Andrew Gerald Doughty
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
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
