In 1903, Dutch physiologist, Willem Einthoven, invented Electrocardiography, taking electric currents and checking the heart for irregularities.]]> 2023-08-31 19:39:38 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2680261553 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2680275035 In 1929, Cardiac catheterization was invented by a German surgeon, Werner Forssmann, and refined by two American physician and physiologists, André Frédéric Cournand and Dickinson W. Richards, and it greatly opened the direct visualization to systems of the heart. Echocardiography, the use of sound waves to see how blood flows, was later invented in 1950 and is something we still use today. ]]> 2023-08-31 19:56:55 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2680275035 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2680277196 Open heart surgeries began being performed originally on animals in 1949. In 1953 Dr. John Lewis performed the 1st successful open-heart surgery on a 5-year-old girl. The heart-lung machine was introduced later that same year and was a major contributor to the performance of open-heart surgery. With the same machine, direct vision repair was introduced to perform cardiac valve replacements. ]]> 2023-08-31 19:59:51 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2680277196 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683657946 The very first use of the defibrillator was in 1775 but was later researched more thoroughly in 1899. 20 years later, a doctor referred to as Beck was the first to use the defibrillator, directly applied to the heart, in an operating room. Later in 1956, Paul Zoll and his coworkers performed the first successful external defibrillation on a human body. ]]> 2023-09-04 17:52:45 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683657946 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683661762 In the early 1960s, CCUs, or coronary care units were established to specialized in the intensive care of those with acute myocardial infarctions or severe and often occurring heart attacks. These units are similar to ICUs but for those with heart issues rather than all life-threatening conditions.  ]]> 2023-09-04 17:58:15 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683661762 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683663654 The first leadless pacemaker was a tiny unit, self-contained and able to fit on the inside wall of the heart as it was very thin and easy to apply. ]]> 2023-09-04 18:00:41 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683663654 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683680970 Hippocrates describes the diseases of the heart, the methods of diagnosis and treatment and the preventative factors and outcomes of the diagnosis. Other things he wrote about included major blood vessels, chambers, and valves. ]]> 2023-09-04 18:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683680970 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683684046 After Swedish research showed plans for a miniature pulse monitor, the U.S. devised a plan to make an implantable version. In 1958, the 1st pacemaker was implanted and said to have an accurate recording of the heart rate. ]]> 2023-09-04 18:26:23 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683684046 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683688476 A German physician, performed the first balloon angioplasty on a coronary artery. This made a major contribution to the treatment of blocked arteries and restore normal blood flow to live everyday life. ]]> 2023-09-04 18:32:32 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683688476 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683693793 This device was invented to lessen the risk of heart failure for those with leaky valves. These patients were at too high of a risk to have open heart surgery. The Mitraclip was inserted into the allowed the leaking valve to open and close properly. ]]> 2023-09-04 18:39:35 UTC https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683693793 alliewatson1 https://padlet.com/alliewatson1/4owevtmyi2b07o9w/wish/2683700383 https://www.britannica.com/science/cardiology
