You can technically remain conscious and in control of your body for a few seconds after your heart stops, while there’s still enough oxygen in your brain and muscles. So there’s nothing theoretically stopping this from happening. I don’t know if this has happened at any point, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.
Brutal comeback
Okay this would be surreal as fuck after the surgery, feeling for your own pulse and getting nothing in return. That’s straight up sci-fi.
Now add the whirring and you’re just a proper cyborg at the point. What a time to be alive.
Funfact, VADs often still have a small pulsatile change, e.g. 2 seconds at 5000rpm, 2 seconds at 5400, so there is a difference it’s just not palpable. The body seems to adjust better to this slight variatons instead of a continuous flow.
My pulse is zero around 50 times a minute, it’s all down to sample length
Is this a Nyquist Theorem reference?
I wish I was smart enough to know what that was, I was just being a contrarian asshole for the fun of it
fs≥2fmBasically you need instruments to be at least twice as fast to sample a continuous signal. This has to do with digitizing an analog signal. If you are not sampling it that fast then you are folding the signal back on itself, sometimes refereed to as aliasing. Im a flunky so don’t take my tldr to seriously.
Charlie Kirk did
Well, probably not more than once anyway.
What about that man that woke up dead
You can’t wake up dead fool.
Dick Cheney?
