Simpson, Sir James Young, 1st Baronet

British physician

born June 7, 1811, Bathgate, Linlithgowshire, Scot.

died May 6, 1870, London

Scottish obstetrician who was the first to use chloroform in obstetrics and the first in Britain to use ether.

Simpson was professor of obstetrics at the University of Edinburgh, where he obtained his M.D. in 1832. After news of the use of ether in surgery reached Scotland in 1846, Simpson tried it in obstetrics the following January. Later that year he substituted chloroform for ether and published his classic Account of a New Anaesthetic Agent.

Simpson persisted in the use of chloroform for relief of labour pains, against opposition of obstetricians and the clergy. He was appointed one of the queen's physicians for Scotland in 1847 and in 1866 was created a baronet.

Simpson introduced iron wire sutures and acupressure, a method of arresting hemorrhage, and developed the long obstetrics forceps that are named for him. He is also known for his writings on medical history (especially on leprosy in Scotland) and on fetal pathology and hermaphroditism.
