Sperophore described for resuscitation at Paris Academy
At a Paris Academy meeting a device called a sperophore was explained by inventor M. Voullez to revive asphyxiated persons. It uses a bellows system outside a chest tube with a glass window to observe movements, drawing air in and out as a lever is operated. The device aims to restore breathing with rapid, life-like chest movements and has safety limits on lung pressure.
