For clinical instruction in surgery he went, in 1929, to the August Victoria Home at Eberswalde near Berlin. It was here that he was the first to develop a technique for the catheterization of the heart. This he did by inserting a cannula into his own antecubital vein, through which he passed a catheter for 65 cm and then walked to the X-ray department, where a photograph was taken of the catheter lying in his right auricle. In 1956 he was awarded, together with and Dickinson W. Richards

Forssmann first performed this technique on himself. He also injected radio-opaque contrast media into his heart and took x-rays revealing the chambers of the heart. His work was not recognized until after World War II, when Andr© F. Cournand and Dickinson W.

14. PTCA 20th Anniversary Project: Bio Of Forssmann Werner Forssmann performs selfcatheterization first x-ray of catheterization.In 1929 in a small hospital in Eberswald Germany Werner Forssmann, http://www.ptca.org/archive/bios/forssmann.html

Werner Forssmann (1904-1979) In 1929 in a small hospital in Eberswald Germany Werner Forssmann, a young surgical resident, anesthetized his own elbow, inserted a catheter in his antecubital vein and, catheter dangling from his arm, proceeded to a basement x-ray room where he documented the catheter's position in his right atrium — proving that a catheter could be inserted safely into a human heart. Forssmann's goal was to find a safe way to inject drugs for cardiac resuscitation. He was determined that catheterization was the key, but it was believed at the time that any entry into the heart would be fatal. Forssmann was immediately fired for his self-experimentation, despite the significance of his discovery. The popular press acclaimed his work, but the medical establishment branded him as crazy, scorning him and ignoring his work for over a decade. He continued to experiment with catheterization in dogs and it is alleged that he stopped self-experimentation only when he had used all of his veins with 17 cut downs. Discouraged by his lack of acceptance in cardiology he switched to urology and eventually became a country doctor. He never returned to cardiology research but was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1956 (along with cardiology innovators Cournand and Richards) for his pioneering efforts.

Selbstversuch Werner Forßmann Selbstversuch Forßmann Werner Werner Forßmann Erinnerungen eines Chirurgen Verlagstext Ein niedergelassener Facharzt wird Nobelpreisträger für Medizin."Mit einer solchen Arbeit habilitiert man sich an einem Zirkus und nicht an einer anständigen Klinik!" So der brüske Kommentar Ferdinand Sauerbruchs zu den revolutionären Selbstversuchen des jungen Arztes Werner Forßmann. Ohne Narkose hatte sich dieser 1929 via Armvene einen Katheter ins Herz geschoben - und damit die moderne Herzdiagnostik eingeläutet.Aber seine Vorgesetzten blocken weitere Versuche ab. Das Establishment macht ihm das Leben schwer, der Krieg wirft ihn vollends aus der akademischen Laufbahn. Mühsam schlägt er sich im Schwarzwald als Landarzt durch, baut sich in Bad Kreuznach eine urologische Facharztpraxis auf.Doch die Saat seiner kardiologischen Pionierarbeit wächst und gedeiht - im Ausland. Das beschert ihm 1956 auf einmal den Medizin-Nobelpreis. Nun ist der Weg zur Professur, zur Chefarztstelle frei. Aber auch als Nobelpreisträger hat er es nicht leicht ...
