Cardiology Stories — The Heart of the Mystery

Cardiologists study the organ that every culture associates with love, courage, and the soul. They measure ejection fractions, interpret ECGs, and thread catheters through coronary arteries with millimeter precision. And sometimes, they witness the heart do things that no hemodynamic model can explain.

Cardiologists have the highest rate of near-death experience reports among medical specialties — perhaps because they are the ones who bring patients back from cardiac arrest most frequently. They have heard patients describe the resuscitation effort in detail, including conversations and procedures that occurred during documented asystole. Some have had their own NDEs, transforming their understanding of the organ they have spent their careers studying.

No specialty is closer to the literal heartbeat of these mysteries. Cardiologists have both the clinical data and the firsthand accounts that make these stories impossible to ignore.
