Trephines and trepanning date to ancient times, but a "modern" form of instruments was codified by the seventeenth century. This did not preclude efforts to "improve" the trephine in the late-eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Surgeons and instrument makers in Britain (Jardine and Savigny), France (Thomson and Charrière), and America (Galt and Otto & Reynders) endeavored to make the trephine safer and more precise. In exploring their interactions, this presentation shows the evolving role of the instrument makers not only as fabricators of tools, but as creative design collaborators of surgeons and physicians.
环钻术和颅骨钻孔术可追溯到古代,但到17世纪时一种“现代”形式的器械被编纂成型。这并没有阻止人们在18世纪末和19世纪努力“改进”环钻。英国(贾丁和萨维尼)、法国(汤姆森和夏里埃)以及美国(高尔特和奥托及雷因德斯)的外科医生和器械制造商致力于让环钻更安全、更精确。在探究他们之间的互动时,本次展示不仅展现了器械制造商作为工具制造者的角色演变,还呈现了他们作为外科医生和内科医生创造性设计合作者的角色演变。
