Rhythms in Time
The Heart Rhythm Society’s history theatre, Rhythms in Time, will focus on the work of Anthony N. Damato, MD (1930 – 2001). Dr. Damato was among the first to recognize the development of modern cardiac electrophysiology, and arrhythmia investigation and management and trained a group of cardiac fellows who were among the founders of clinical cardiac electrophysiology. In 1969, Drs. Sherlag, Kosowsky, and Damato described a reliable, reproducible, and simple technique to record and pace the human His bundle potential with a catheter electrode. This discovery, which barely achieved publication, became the basis of and the major tool for clinical cardiac electrophysiology and allowed the development of recognizably modern cardiac electrophysiology, and arrhythmia investigation and management.
Rhythms in Time is a component of the Heart Rhythm Foundation's Furman Fund. Created to honor one of the Society’s founding fathers, Dr. Seymour Furman, the Furman Fund has three specific objectives:
- preserve a historic view of cardiac pacing and electrophysiology
- inspire clinicians, students and patients with the rhythmic wonder of the human heart; and
- educate the clinical and lay community about the field of electrophysiology and its innovation and future potential for improving and extending the lives of arrhythmia patients.
