TL;DR: In this article, a stabilizing device is introduced through an opening in the chest and brought into contact with the beating heart, and the surgeon contacts the heart with the stabilizing means, assesses the degree of movement of the anastomosis site, and exerts a force on the stabilising means such that the contraction of the heart causes orgy minimal excess motion at the surgery site.
Patent
Method and apparatus for using vagus nerve stimulation in surgery
TL;DR: In this article, a method and apparatus for facilitating coronary surgery on the beating heart wherein the vagus nerve is electrically stimulated to purposely temporarily stop or substantially reduce the beating of the heart under precisely controlled conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a stabilizing device is introduced through an opening in the chest and brought into contact with the beating heart to stabilize the heart during a surgical procedure on the heart.
Patent
Surgical devices for imposing a negative pressure to fix the position of cardiac tissue during surgery
TL;DR: In this paper, a negative pressure is applied through a surgical instrument to fix the position of a portion of the surface of a beating heart so that a surgical procedure can be more easily performed.
