When was the pacemaker discovered?

Answer 1

Canadian, John Hopps invented the first cardiac pacemaker and he was trained as an electrical engineer at the University of Manitoba and joined the National Research Council in 1941, where he conducted research on hypothermia. While experimenting with radio frequency heating to restore body temperature, Hopps discovered if a heart stopped beating due to cooling, it could be started again by artificial stimulation using mechanical or electric means. This lead to Hopps' invention of the world's first cardiac pacemaker in 1950. His device was far too large to be implanted inside of the human body. It was an external pacemaker.

Answer 2

to help people servive and to keep there heart at a good pace.

this sentence above is not correct because he did not even imagine he was going to invent a pacemaker.He had a great interest in hypothermia......so while doing researches about this he did an error.......but this error came to become the first pacemaker.........but this pacemaker was really big it wouldnt fit in a humans body. only later was it made small to fit in a humans body.
