Trium phs in Surgery.
Cleansing of the wouud Itself was al
most a surgical heresy a few years ago.
Fouled bandages were the rule, and the
thicker and more abundant the dis
charges the more “ laudable” they were
considered to be. Hence in the older
works on surgery the so-called “ lauda
ble” pus was as much a sign of safety
as It is now o f danger. Cleanliness of
instruments, now a prime considera
tion. was tlien entirely ignored. Often
times the same instruments would tie
us«.d at different times upou the dead
as well as the living body, aud a cele
brated operator of that day was accus
tomed to hold his knife between his
teeth when his hands were temporarily
employed in the wound. If a cat heal
ed rapidly it was a rarity sufficiently
great to court fact. The former result
was rather an accident of cleanliness
than the delilierate acknowledgment of
what shoulu have been the rule. Con
sequently the most careful surgeons—
those who possessed instinctive habits
of neatness and cleanliness—were tha
most successful.
