~By inserting a fine wire into an elbow “vein and gently pushing it forward until its tip rests inside the heart or against its walls, doctors now can get a direct record of the electrical currents of human heart action. Dr; H, H, Hecht of the University of Utah medical school, reported these findings at the meeting here of the American Federation for Clinical Research! The action is recorded on a galvanometer. None of the volunteers, some of whom had heart disease, were harmed by the procedure. None complained of unusual sensations, Dr. Hecht stated. The location of the impulses which govern the heart beat could be shown for the first time with this procedure. They start in a section of the

found, and then spread over the human heart muscle in a well defined manner, It is similar to the

chest experiments performed on dogs and monkeys both in normal and abnormal conditions. The electrical currents. of heart action, known as electro-cardio-grams, have been recorded for many years In human ‘subjects, They have been extensively used in diagnosis of heart and blood vessel disease, Dr. Hecht pointed out.

However, no direct records from the human heart have been available. The significance of the electrocardiogram has been interpreted by analogy with information gained from experiments on strips cut from heart muscle, skeletal muscle or nerve tissue. ; The direct records Dr. Hecht obtained show that the electrical phenomena associated with the heart beat in man are almost identical with those that can be obtained from the highly artificial nerve strip or muscle preparation. Doctors can, therefore, continue to use the electrocardiogram for patients, while the new technique is used to gain additional informa-

spread of impulses seen in cpen

tion about heart action.
