Description

A vertical spinal manometer in a cardboard carton, measuring 35 x 3.8 x 3.6 cm. The carton label reads: B-D Spinal Fluid Manometer (Water type), No. 5027. The carton contains a manometer in two parts: a glass barrel with gradations marked 33-60 and metal collar on one end, and a glass barrel with gradations marked 3-29 and metal collars on both ends. The tubes are mounted on a metal rack fitted with holding clamps. The item was donated by John C. Brougher, M.D., in February 1976. It is believed to be incomplete. A "note" on the accession card lists rubber tubing, rubber bulb, folding stand for manometer, and one metal cap for glass barrel as being missing(?). This may have been a replacement piece.
