Item 5.  Other Events
The following information is provided to assist the readers of our
financial statement and is prepared in a manner consistent with the
pro forma financial information presented in the Form 8-K/A filed
November 3, 1997, pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X for the
period ended June 30, 1997.

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of
Operations presents the combined results of operations of
Mallinckrodt Inc. (Mallinckrodt) and Nellcor Puritan Bennett
Incorporated (Nellcor) as if the August 28, 1997 acquisition of
Nellcor had occurred as of the beginning of fiscal 1997, after giving
effect to certain adjustments, including amortization of intangibles
and goodwill, increased interest payments on debt related to the
acquisition, reduced interest income from cash utilized to complete
the acquisition and the related tax effects.  The Unaudited Pro Forma
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations does not necessarily
reflect the results of operations that would have occurred had
Mallinckrodt and Nellcor operated as a combined entity during such
periods.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of
Operations presented above does not include non-cash charges for
purchased research and development and the sale of inventory stepped
up to fair value at date of acquisition.

The EPS amounts have been restated to conform with the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share.  Statement 128 replaced the
previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share with
basic and diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary earnings per
share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of
options, warrants and convertible securities.  Diluted earnings per
share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted
earnings per share.
