In 1937, Dr. Earl C. Padgett, Sr. invented the first calibrated, drum dermatome. Even today, surgeons are still using the Manual Dermatome, which is ideal for pattern grafts and dermal grafts. It is completely self-contained and requires no external power source. This device has been proven in practice for more than 60 years.
