Box of ampoules used by Dr Mitchell Henry O'Sullivan, Parke, Davis and Co, c. 1952
Ergot aseptic was used to stimulate uterine contractions after labour to expel the placenta.

His son, Dr David More O'Sullivan donated the obstetric bag and its contents to the College in 1999. The bag and contents are a unique time capsule of the type of instruments and pharmaceuticals used in the inter-war period.
