Curt Schimmelbusch
Curt Theodor Schimmelbusch (born November 16, 1860 in Groß Nogath , Graudenz district , West Prussia , † August 2, 1895 in Berlin ) was a German surgeon.
Life
Schimmelbusch initially studied natural sciences from 1879 to 1882 at the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg and the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich . He switched to medicine at the Julius Maximilians University in Würzburg , the Friedrich Wilhelms University in Berlin and the Friedrichs University in Halle . In Halle he was promoted to Dr. med. PhD . He then worked as an assistant to Karl Joseph Eberth in the anatomical institute. From 1888 he was assistant in the Bürgerhospital in Cologne with Bernhard Bardenheuer and from 1889 in Berlin with Ernst von Bergmann . In 1892 he completed his habilitation.
The Schimmelbusch mask , which was generally introduced in the 1890s, is named after him. It is a sterilizable mask made of wire mesh. It is used to hygienically vaporize ether in front of the patient's face, whereby the ether anesthesia (or ether drip anesthesia ) comes about through inhalation. Also in instrument reprocessing, i. H. the sterilization of instruments and other medical products, the name Schimmelbusch is well known. This is how the containers for instruments and surgical linen he developed in 1889 were called mold bush drums . The containers and container systems used today have developed on the basis of these containers.
