Before the start of the twentieth-century, when one thought of how the hospital may have looked like, it was believed to have long wards with many beds and nurses. The technology used in these facilities was thought to be primitive, if any technology was even used. However, during the period between 1900 and 1925, a transformation of medicine into a scientific discipline occurred as a result of technology specific to the medical field. This change was shown by how patients were being cared for and how the hospital functioned. The period between 1900 and 1925 marked the reasoning behind why and how medical technology has become a common routine in the United States medical practices.

Your post was a little hard to follow and you did not fully address all aspects of what appears to be the thesis of the post, in particular "reasoning behind why and how medical technology has become a common routine in the United States medical practices." What was the reason why medical technology became a common routine in US medical practices? Was it the availability at the time period? A change in technology during the first quarter of the 20th century? Or something else? Additionally, it would have been beneficial to explain the date range chosen by your sources. In particular, why stop at 1925? Despite that, the post did a good job explaining why this transition made medical practice in the US more efficient.
