For instance, dakin solution (an antiseptic solution used to irrigate wounds before closure), hydrochloride (used as a local anesthetic), and chloroform (used as a generic anesthetic and a sedative).

For instance, The Thomas Splint. This method required at least two, ideally three, people to apply it to a soldiers leg and was completed in a twelve-stop process.
