On the Surgery Hippocrates by Francis Adams—————————————————
—————————————————-1is the business of the physician to know, in
the first place,similar and things dissimilar; those connected with thingsimportant, most
easily known, and in anywise known; which arebe seen, touched, and heard; which are to
be perceived in the sight,the touch, and the hearing, and the nose, and the tongue,
andunderstanding; which are to be known by all the means we knowthings. ——————
————————————————————————————-2things relating to
surgery, are- the patient; the operator; the; the instruments; the light, where and how; how
many things,how; where the body, and the instruments; the time; the manner;place. ——
————————————————————————————————-
3operator is either sitting or standing, conveniently for himself,the person operated upon,
for the light. There are two kinds of, the common and the artificial; the common is not at
our disposal,artificial is at our disposal. There are two modes of using each,to the light, or
from the light (to the side?). There is littleof that which is from (or oblique to the light),
and the degreeit is obvious. As to opposite the light, we must turn the partbe operated
upon to that which is most brilliant of present andlights, unless those parts which should
be concealed, andit is a shame to look upon; thus the part that is operated uponbe
opposite the light, and the operator opposite the part operated, except in so far as he does
not stand in his own light; forthis case the operator will indeed see, but the thing
operatedwill not be seen. With regard to himself when sitting, his feetbe raised to a direct
line with his knees, and nearly in contactone another; the knees a little higher than the
groins, and atdistance from one another, for the elbows to rest upon them.robe, in a neat
and orderly manner, is to be thrown over the elbowsshoulders equally and proportionally.
With regard to the partupon; we have to consider how far distant, and how near,, below,
on this side on that side, or in the middle. The measureto distance and proximity is, that
the elbows do not press thebefore, nor the sides behind; that the hands be not raised
higherthe breasts, nor lower than so as that when the breast reposesthe knees he may have
the hands at right angles with the arm: thusis as regards the medium; but as concerns this
side or that, themust not be beyond his be beyond his seat, but in proportionhe may
require turning he must shift the body, or part of the body,is operated upon. When
standing, he must make his inspection,firmly and equally on both feet; but he must operate
whilehimself upon either leg, and not the one on the same sidethe hand which he makes
use of; the knee being raised to theof the groins as while sitting; and the other measures in
like. The person operated upon should accommodate the operator withto the other parts
of his body, either standing, sitting, or; so as that he may continue to preserve his figure,
avoid sinking, shrinking from, turning away; and may maintain the figure andof the part
operated upon, during the act of presentation,the operation, and in the subsequent
position. ————————————————————————————————

prepared, will beof afterwards; so that they may not impede the work, and thatmay be no
difficulty in taking hold of them, with the part ofbody which operates. But if another gives
them, he must be readylittle beforehand, and do as you direct. ———————————

———————————————————————-7are two views of bandaging:
that which regards it while doing,that which regards it when done. It should be done
quickly, without, with ease, and with elegance; quickly, by despatching the without, by
being readily done; with ease, by being prepared for everything;with elegance, so that it
may be agreeable to the sight. By whatof training these accomplishments are to be
acquired has been. When done, it should fit well and neatly; it is neatly donewith
judgment, and when it is equal and unequal, according asparts are equal or unequal. The
forms of it (the bandage?) aresimple, the slightly winding (called ascia), the sloping
(sima),monoculus, the rhombus, and the semi-rhombus. The form of bandagebe suitable to
the form and the affection of the part to whichis applied. —————————————
—————————————————————-8are two useful purposes to be
fulfilled by bandaging: (first,), which is imparted by the compression and the number of
folds.one case the bandage effects the cure, and in another it contributesthe cure. For
these purposes this is the rule- that the force ofconstriction be such as to prevent the
adjoining parts from separating,compressing them much, and so that the parts may be
adjustednot forced together; and that the constriction be small at the, and least of all in the
middle. The knot and the threadis passed through should not be in a downward but in an
upward, regard being had to the circumstances under which the casepresented; to position,
to the bandaging, and to the compression.commencement of the ligatures is not to be
placed at the wound,where the kriot is situated. The knot should not be placed wherewill
be exposed to friction, nor where it will be in the way, norit will be useless. The knot and
the thread should be soft,not large. —————————————————————
—————————————-9(Second.) One ought to be well aware that every
bandage has a tendencyfall off towards the part that declines or becomes smaller;
as,example, upwards, in the case of the head, and downwards, in theof the leg. The turns
of the bandage should be made from rightleft, and from left to right, except on the head,
where it shouldin a straight direction. When opposite parts are to be bandaged, we must
use a bandage with two heads; or if we make usea bandage with one head, we must attach
it in like manner at somepoint: such, for example, as the middle of the head; and soother
cases. Those parts which are much exposed to motion, suchthe joints, where there is a
flexion, should have few and slightapplied to them, as at the ham; but where there is much
extension,bandage should be single and broad, as at the kneepan; and formaintenance of
the bandage in its proper place, some turns shouldcarried to those parts which are not
much moved, and are lank,as the parts above and below the knee. In the case of the
shoulder;fold should be carried round by the other armpit; in that of the, by the flanks of
the opposite side; and of the leg, to abovecalf of the leg. When the bandage has a tendency
