Context

Country: Unknown
State/Province: Unknown
Period: Unknown
Canada: Part of a collection of medical technologies donated to the Canada Science and Technology Museums Corporation by the Canadian Anesthesiologists’ Society. Used at the Verdun Protestant Hospital. Verdun Protestant Hospital was the name used by the Douglas Hospital of Montreal between 1925 and 1965.
Function: Covers and protects the contents of a box
Technical: Rigid bronchoscope is used for retrieving foreign objects. The larger lumen of the rigid bronchoscope versus the narrow lumen of the flexible bronchoscope allows for therapeutic approaches such as electrocautery to help control the bleeding. Rigid bronchoscopy is preferred for recovery of foreign body aspiration because it allows protection of the airway and controlling the foreign body during recovery.
Area Notes: Unknown
