A study in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology consisted of cutting out the hearts of preborn children who were being aborted:
“The hearts were dissected from the fetuses and were mounted in a thermostatically controlled bath….The hearts survived for many hours without any significant change in their spontaneous contraction rate…Electrograms were displayed on a polygraph and served as a basis for determination of the spontaneous heart rate.”
