TY - GEN N2 - 1950-1960 N2 - A collection of cardiovascular and thoracic surgical instruments, donated by J. Karl Poppe, M.D., in September 1978. Some of the original fifteen items were returned to Dr. Poppe in December of that year. Remaining in the collection (with Poppes notes in quotations) are: 1) Everts-Grahams rib approximator, used "to assist in closing chest wall after thoracostomy, " 2) cloth bag containing "sample bifurcation aortic and smaller artery grafts made on sewing machine from Orlon cloth," 3) the "Life Saver," a curved metal tube with side openings "used to open larynx in laryngeal spasms, particularly during induction of early anesthetic agents," 4) epicardial rasp for use in Beck I operations, "used to scarify and denude epicardium berfore inserting asbestos for coronary insufficiency," 5) metal clamp "designed to hold plastic ring around Hufnagel grafts and valves in aorta," 6) Baileys guillotine, an "improved knife for cutting stenotic mitral valve leaflets through left atrium by closed method," 7) ratchet-type lung tourniquet, "used in the early days of thoracic surgery," 8) Rummel lung tourniquet, "used for closing purse-string ligature around opening in left ventricle while finger and knife opened mitral valve," 9) windlass-type lung tourniquet, "used for passage around hilum to control bleeding during pneumonectomy," 10) original Poppe aortic clamp "for resecting saccular aneurysms of thoracic aorta," and 11) original Poppe valve knife made in 1950. The items are in fair to good condition with some rusting.
