Electrical records were made from the interior of the right heart and attached vessels in 14 normal subjects. Technics differed somewhat from those previously reported in that simultaneously recording string galvanometers were used exclusively, and tracings were made whenever the catheterelectrode was moved within the heart. Previously unreported large positive QRS deflections were found in records from the lower part of the right atrium, from the pulmonary artery, and in two instances from within the right ventricle itself close to the base. The possible anatomical origin of these is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
