The next reference to this technique was almost a century later in 1794 when Saemann of Jena wrote a brief report in which he described a dream as follows 4 : I saw in a dream an air pump wherewith one can seize the head of an infant without injury to mother or child.
When the procedure failed, he was forced, with the assistance of his son, to carry out a destructive operation on the infant s head to assist delivery 3.
His account appeared in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London 3 : In November 1705, I was call d to deliver a woman 30 years old, who had 4 days laboured in vain to bring forth her first child: The head, being too big for the passage, stuck immoveable at the os pubis so that I could neither fasten a crochet, nor draw it out by a cupping-glass fixt to the scalp with an air pump. Ambroise Paré applied the same principle with a cupping-glass to treat a depressed skull fracture in an adult in The first attempted obstetrical application was by James Yonge, surgeon to the Naval Hospital in Plymouth, England.
