Description
As early as the 19th century, venous pressure was used in the diagnoses and assessment of congestive heart failure. Leamon’s apparatus was introduced between the wars, a time when the diagnostic importance of venous pressure was beginning to be more widely understood and measured clinically. The presence of mimeographed rather than printed instructions and a catalog cut might indicate that this was an early model used within the company by Pilling.
