This investigation must have been one of the earliest pieces of research in electrocardiography in Britain! During his wide ranging researches on muscle and nerve activity, Augustus Désiré Waller (1856-1922) became persuaded that the broadly recognized electrical currents associated with muscular activity and nerve conduction were integral to the life process. He was able to record the electrical activity of the living mammalian heart from the body surface and in some of the recordings associating that recording with the mechanical apex beat. Before the invention of the string galvanometer, the most satisfactory method of studying the electrical reactions of the human heart was to use the Lippmann capillary electrometer, as pioneered by Augustus Waller at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, in the 1880s, though Marey had demonstrated earlier that it was possible to use a capillary electrometer for this purpose, without attempting investigations with it. Gabriel Lippmann invented his electrometer whilst working in G.R. Kirchhoff's physical Laboratory in Berlin. E. Waymouth Reid "early showed his interest in electrical reactions, being appointed assistant 'electrician' at St. Bartholomew's in 1885. The same year he was elected to a Demonstratorship in Physiology at St. Mary's Hospital under A. D. Waller and in 1887 was promoted to the post of Assistant Lecturer in Physiology. Reid, during the period he was at St. Mary's, carried out in conjunction with Waller a most interesting investigation on the electrical activity of the excised mammalian heart. This investigation must have been one of the earliest pieces of research in electrocardiography in this country. His interest in physico-chemical reactions was also manifested early as in 1887 he devised a useful recording osmometer." E. P. Cathcart and R. C. Garry: Edward Waymouth Reid 1862-1948.
