Nazi Medical Experiments Research Paper

They were painful. They forced people to do them. They served one main purpose. The effects of the Nazi Medical Experiments lasted for years. Although the experiments were very helpful in the end, the people, who were mostly Jews, were forced into doing these horrible projects. These Jews were exposed to harsh, frigid weather conditions, so that the doctors who were conducting these experiments could see the effects of hypothermia on a human. In addition, these very painful experiments were repeated several times on a single prisoner to produce a solid result. Most of these people later died, to the severity of the situation they were thrown into.
Just being a Jew, meant that you were subject to these nasty experiments. Most people were forced from their homes and into concentration camps, were they were then taken to the medical labs to be experimented on. Children would come home from school to find that their parents were gone without a trace as to where they were. The police would then come

looking for the children so that they could be subjected to the extreme pain of the experiments as well.
As most of the experiments were focused on purifying the race to Hitler’s idea of a perfect world where everyone obeyed him, some of the painful experiments were conducted to help figure out how to warm up the German forces who were ill prepared for the bitter cold.

(remember.org). “The freezing experiments were divided into two parts. First, to establish how long it would take to lower the body temperature to death and second how to best resuscitate the frozen victim.” (remember.org). To see how long it would take for a person to be rendered unconscious from their body temperature being too low, the Germans used two main methods, the Icy Vat method and being placed outside naked in the freezing weather of Auschwitz. The Germans also used different methods of warming the frozen victim. Two such methods for the warming part of the experiment would be the Sun Lamps and the Hot Bath. The two water methods proved to work the best to both freeze and warm the frozen

person.
Repetitive experiments were not uncommon. In fact most, if not all of the victims were tested on several times to get a firm answer on whatever they were being experimented on. In remember.org, the website directly states… “One young homosexual victim was repeatedly cooled to unconsciousness then revived with (the) lamps until he was pouring sweat. He died one evening after several test sessions.” People who were experimented on repeatedly were emotionally and physically scarred for life.
These people were forced into these experiments and were taken away from their families. Afterwards, when the war was all over, the Jews and other people who were experimented on, who survived the often deadly experiments, were later liberated. Shaken from these horrible events that had occurred in those dreadful medical labs, some people, who survived, shared their stories with the world, while others kept to themselves, and other survivors only wrote in their journals and diaries, in which some later got published as recorded events of the Holocaust. These experiments fulfilled their purpose.
