Excerpt from An Aseptic Atmosphere: Club Foot, A Rectal Obturator, PalatoplastyThe exclusion is of two kinds: the immediate and temporary, and the permanent. 1st. The exclusion of those agents from the air which surrounds the patient at the time of an operation, by means capable of purifying the whole atmosphere of an apartment, or the portion of it which surrounds the wound in the progress of formation, and 2d. The permanent exclusion of an infected atmosphere by the mode of dressing.This implies, that while the atmosphere of a whole room may be made aseptic during the time in which an operation may be performed, it may be too troublesome or too expensive to secure a perpetual purification of the apartment occupied by the patient during his recovery. It is implied, that the exposed wound surface may be effectually secluded from contamination by such a character of the dressings as to make it certain that the infection will be arrested or destroyed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
