D Cardiac Electrical Activity Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study is to develop a new, computationally-efficient, anatomically-realistic 3D bidomain cardiac electrical activity model using widely available software and standard low-cost hardware. The model incorporates whole-heart embedded in a human torso, spontaneous activation of sinoatrial node and specialized conduction system with heterogeneous action potential morphologies. The model is capable of generating realistic body surface electrocardiograms (ECGs) and is proposed as a useful tool for investigating some major issues in heart pathophysiology and in stimulation; such as simulating and optimizing synchronized electrical cardioversion, defibrillation and pacing stimulation.

Effect of endurance training with cinnamon bark extract on antioxidant activity levels and cardiac index in streptozotocin- (STZ) induced DM male rats
Background: Diabetes may be associated with an imbalance between the protective effects of antioxidants and increased production of free radicals. Oxidative stress also appears to contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. In this study the effect of endurance exercise with cinnamon bark extract on antioxidant activity levels and cardiac index in streptozotocin- (STZ) induced DM ...

متن کاملSignal Reconstruction of Pulmonary Vein Recordings Using a Phenomenological Mathematical Model: Application to Pulmonary Vein Isolation Therapy
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most prevalent cardiac arrhythmia, is commonly initiated by ectopic beats originating from a small myocardial sleeve extending over the pulmonary veins. Pulmonary vein isolation therapy attempts to isolate the pulmonary veins from the left atrium by ablating tissue, commonly by using radiofrequency ablation. During this procedure, the cardiologist records electrica...
متن کاملThree-dimensional panoramic imaging of cardiac arrhythmias in rabbit heart.
Cardiac fluorescent optical imaging provides the unique opportunity to investigate the dynamics of propagating electrical waves during ventricular arrhythmias and the termination of arrhythmias by strong electric shocks. Panoramic imaging systems using charge-coupled device (CCD) cameras as the photodetector have been developed to overcome the inability to monitor electrical activity from the e...
