  <dc:description>Ignaz P. Semmelweis proved, in 1847, in Vienna&apos;s General Hospital, that many mothers&apos; lives could be saved if physicians and medical students washed their hands before examining obstetric patients. Resentment both by students and by superiors drove the Hungarian physician from his post.</dc:description>
