Abstract

SummaryA new technic is described to obtain intracavitary cardiac potentials through the single lumen saline filled cardiac catheter without use of the usual copper wire electrode. If the exploring terminal of an electrocardiograph is connected to the open arm end of a column of blood or saline in a catheter which has been introduced into the cavity of the heart, and if the indifferent electrode is connected to a central terminal, the completed curve will represent chiefly the fluctuations of intra-cardiac potential at the tip of the catheter.
