N2  - Having had considerable difficulty in draining the bladder after cystotomy with the ordinary apparatus, I devised the apparatus shown by the accompanying cut, which fulfills perfectly the purpose for which it was constructed, that of perfect drainage of the bladder.After the patient is placed in bed the tubing is connected with a drainage tube from the bladder. The Y-shaped tube F must be below the level of the patient lying in bed; the reservoir A filled with water, the stopcock B turned on so that the water will drop slowly into the cup C, which, on being filled, tilts and empties itself into the funnel D. The water running down the long tube E into the Y-shaped tube F forms behind it a suction which causes a siphonage of the fluid in the bladder. This siphonage may be regulated to occur at any given interval by arranging the flow
