Talk:Membrane oxygenator

message: Cardiac surgery was made successful using the bubble oxygenator, the membrane oxygenator is an improvement.  The bubble oxygenator is obsolete in the U.S., but is still used in other countries.    I do not believe the membrane oxygenator "paved the way for successful" cardiac surgery is correct.

replies: text: A pubmed literature search on the terms history, oxygenator and peirce revealed only one match.  A pubmed search on the history of oxygenators revealed an excellent summary. ()  There is one reference to a journal article by Dr. Peirce in the article, but no mention by name.  I do not doubt Dr. Peirce as a notable figure, but he did not pave the way for successful cardiac surgery. Dlodge 15:46, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

text: As for the relation to Spelunky, the https://github.com/gondur/spelunky-classic-1.1 Spelunky release notes give Aztec as an influence on Spelunky so the influence is very much not hidden on Spelunky that came out 25 years after Aztec. I could imagine that Rogue, or a number of other random-dungeon games from the early 80s, influenced Aztec itself (which itself is a realtime arcade side-view game) but you would need someone drawing out the exact connection more explicitly as there are several possible connections to games other than Rogue (e.g. Akalabeth: World of Doom for instance). However random generation was also done in those days because of limited memory/disk/cassette/cartridge space, like in the 1982 River Raid (which had a fixed seed, but was pseudo-randomly generated), and probably was interdependently invented as a gaming concept in a few different instances in order to meet platform constraints.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seggallion (talk • contribs) 07:14, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
