Willem Einthoven Urodzi³ siê Semarang na indonezyjskiej wyspie Javie, uczy³ siê na University of Utrecht, holenderski fizjolog i histolog - (1860-1927). By³ profesorem uniwersytetu w Lejdzie. W 1903 roku wynalaz³ elektrokardiograf , który mierzy i zapisuje pracê serca. Urz±dzenie nosi³o nazwê galwanometru strunowego i by³o bardzo czu³ym przyrz±dem do mierzenia s³abych pr±dów o czêsto zmiennym napiêciu. Zasadniczym elementem urz±dzenia by³a napiêta struna platynowa umieszczona w silnym sta³ym polu magnetycznym. Pod wp³ywem pr±du ulega³a odchyleniu w zale¿no¶ci od jego natê¿enia, a jej powiêkszony cieñ ulega³ utrwaleniu na papierze ¶wiat³oczu³ym. W 1924 roku za ten wynalazek przyznano mu nagrodê Nobla.

Einthoven, Willem Einthoven Archiv fur Kunst und Geschichte, Berlin (b. May 21, 1860, Semarang, Java, Dutch East Indiesd. Sept. 29, 1927, Leiden, Neth.), Dutch physiologist who was awarded the 1924 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the electrical properties of the heart through the electrocardiograph , which he developed as a practical clinical instrument and an important tool in the diagnosis of heart disease. Einthoven was graduated in medicine from the University of Utrecht and served as professor of physiology at the University of Leiden from 1886 until his death. In 1903 he devised the first string galvanometer, known as the Einthoven galvanometer; with this instrument he was able to measure the changes of electrical potential caused by contractions of the heart muscle and to record them graphically. He coined the term electrocardiogram for this process. Einthoven recognized differences in the records or tracings obtained from different kinds of heart disease. From 1908 to 1913 he studied the patterns of records of normal heart activity in order to gain precision in recognizing and interpreting deviations. Einthoven continued to develop electrode arrangements, and the present-day standard limb leads were originally described and used by him.

Einthoven's most important invention, the string galvanometer, made possible the precise measurements of the electrical activity produced by the beating human heart . Modern electrocardiograph machines, which allow physicians to monitor heart function and to detect damage from heart attacks and other causes, are based on Einthoven's original invention. For his essential contributions to the development of electrocardiography, Einthoven was awarded the 1924 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. Born in Semarang, Java (in what is now Indonesia), Einthoven was ten when his family moved back to the Netherlands in 1870, settling in Utrecht. After receiving his Ph.D. degree in medicine in 1885 from the University of Utrecht, Einthoven became a professor of physiology at the Leiden University in the Netherlands, where he remained for the rest of his career.
