Instruments Of Reduction

Unfortunately, there is no book titled ""Instruments of Reduction"" by Hippocrates. Hippocrates was a Greek physician who lived in the 5th century BCE and is often referred to as the father of medicine. He wrote several medical texts, including the Hippocratic Corpus, which contains numerous treatises on various medical topics. However, none of his works are titled ""Instruments of Reduction."" It is possible that the book you are referring to is a modern medical text that draws on Hippocratic principles, but without more information, it is impossible to provide a complete description.In complete dislocations to either side, make extension while the arm is in the position it is put in to be bandaged for a fracture, for thus the rounded part of the elbow will not form an obstacle to it.

In these cases rotation of the elbow cooperates; that is to say, turning the arm into a state of supination and pronation; so much for the reduction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
