In 2015, Jefferson Health completed the process of merging with Abington Hospital. In 2021, Jefferson Health completed the process of merging with Einstein Philadelphia Hospital.

The Iron Lung, Tara Sims, Kelsey Koym

TMC Library Newsletter (2015-)

In the early 20th century, polio was one of the most feared diseases in the world. It struck quickly, and for some, left lasting paralysis—especially in the muscles that control breathing. That’s where the iron lung came in.

This large, capsule-like machine enclosed a patient’s body up to the neck in an airtight chamber. Through shifts in air pressure, it caused the chest to rise and fall, simulating natural breathing. It was loud, cumbersome, and required constant attention—but for many, it meant survival. Visit the McGovern Historical Center Blog to read the complete story about the Iron Lung.

Center for Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice Papers

The interprofessional education (IPE) literature showcases many studies reporting results at the all-student and academic program levels.

Pre-licensure students engaged in a two-year IPE curriculum and individually completed the Student Perceptions of Interprofessional Clinical Education-Revised survey, version 2 (SPICE-R2), at the end of the first and second year. Teams were comprised of health profession students from 12 academic programs associated with the university. Exploratory and longitudinal analyses of the …
