About this work

Description

This short film shows the procedures for arterial cannulation, beginning with close up footage of a cannula being inserted into a vein in the wrist, then moving on to a patient being anaesthetised through that insertion. Several small children with burns are shown and we watch as one is prepared for surgery. [There is an interruption to the footage with a small section of a lecture in black and white which seems unrelated to the main footage]. We also see laparoscopic footage of the inside of the trachea, possibly with respiratory support being inserted.

Notes

This film comes from the Monica Britton Medical History Collection, which was based at Frenchay Hospital, Bristol, now closed. The museum was founded in 1985 by a generous donation from the late Mr. J. Britton in memory of his wife who came from a medical family and was extremely interested in education. The collection included a wide spectrum of surgical, medical, anaesthetic, radiological and pharmaceutical artefacts, together with books, catalogues and photographs.
