Reconstruction of Hyman's Second Pacemaker
@article{Furman2005ReconstructionOH, title={Reconstruction of Hyman's Second Pacemaker}, author={S. Furman and G. Szarka and Dmitriy Layvand}, journal={Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology}, year={2005}, volume={28} }
Though journal articles and newspaper reports suggest that three Hyman pacemakers existed or were intended; a patent, descriptive photographs and a written description of an earlier model and only a photograph of a later model exist. A replica of the earlier has been made based on the patent and description, and a new replica of the second based on a critical deconstruction and analysis of the photograph of the second with a modern circuit duplicating the function of the earlier circuit. Both… CONTINUE READING
