Abstract
A method (described) by which persistent monophasic electrograms can be obtained in the mammalian heart consists essentially in leading off from the injured spot produced by moderate pressure on a special type of electrode. The monophasic response obtained by leading off from injured and uninjured spots of the heart measures the potential changes in the uninjured region and not in the region of the injuring electrode. Sufficient variations were noted in the duration of electrical activity in different regions of the heart to support the concept of the origin of the T wave in the electrocardiogram advanced bv Katz.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
