Cong Hoa Hospital, Burn Ward, Saigon, Republic of Vietnam

Silent. Department of Defense. Department of the Army. Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. U.S. Army Audiovisual Center. (ca. 1974 - 05/15/1984). Continuation of previous roll (LC 58248) of photo coverage of two skin-graft operations at the Cong Hoa Hospital in Saigon, Republic of Vietnam. Footage continues with the actual operation (prepared for in previous roll) by Dr. (LTC) Janice A. Mendelson, U.S. Army Medical Corps, and Dr. Nguyen dang Cat. The first operation is a graft to the right forearm and hand of the victim. The second operation, chosen because the burn area is a good example of the site ready for grafting, is a graft to the left hand and the inside of the thighs of the victim. The grafts are the placement of the healthy skin taken from another part of the victim's body onto the burned area, where it will grow together with the burned area to form a new skin cover. Various MSs, CUs, ECUs of the taking of skin from the donor site by means of the electric Dermatome (a rapidly vibrating knife, resembling a stainless steel electric shaver, which cuts a thin layer of skin from the donor site) and of the assistant spreading the skin on a saline-soaked gauze. Several MSs, CUs, ECUs of the skin being placed over the raw tissue along with the gauze. The new skin is properly positioned and after, bandages are wrapped around the wound and the area is immobilized by the application of a plaster cast. DVD Copied by Master Scanner Thomas Gideon.
