Correlation between conduction velocity and frequency analysis in patients with atrial fibrillation using high-density charge mapping

Spectral analysis of atrial signals has been used to identify regions of interest in atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the relationship to the atrial substrate is unclear. In this study, we compare regions with dominant frequency (DF), simultaneously dete ...

Schmitt trigger-based control strategy for the discharge phase of an ultra-high-voltage bidirectional flyback

Yves Perriard, Alexis Boegli, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

The control strategy to discharge a capacitive load such as a dielectric elastomer actuator charged to several kilo-volts is critical to obtain a safe and reliable actuation. In the case of this publication, an ultra-high voltage bidirectional flyback conv ...

Experimental study of atrial fibrillation cycle length during rapid atrial septal pacing

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Sasan Yazdani

Computer model-based simulations have shown that rapid stimulation at 60-100% of atrial fibrillation cycle length (AFCL) from a ring of electrodes located around the septum may induce local capture in both atria for most AF dynamics. The present study aims ...

Observer Placement for Source Localization: the Effect of Budgets and Transmission Variance

Patrick Thiran, Laura Elisa Celis, Brunella Marta Spinelli

When an epidemic spreads in a network, a key question is where was its source, i.e., the node that started the epidemic. If we know the time at which various nodes were infected, we can attempt to use this information in order to identify the source. Howev ...

Experimental Testing of AF Septal Modeling Results

Adrian Luca

Introduction: Moving to clinical validation is an essential phase with every model-based result. However, this translation is often not straightforward because animal models differ from human computer models in many anatomic and electrophysiologic ways, wh ...

Impact of Conduction Velocity on Local Capture of Atrial Fibrillation Induced by Rapid Pacing

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Alexandru Rusu

Objectives: Rapid pacing of atrial fibrillation (AF) can induce local atrial capture. The present model-based study investigated the impact of atrial tissue conduction velocity on AF capture ability during rapid septal pacing. Methods: The AF model combine ...

Efficient Numerical Schemes for Computing Cardiac Electrical Activation over Realistic Purkinje Networks: Method and Verification

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara, Toni Mikael Lassila

We present a numerical solver for the fast conduction system in the heart using both a CPU and a hybrid CPU/GPU implementation. To verify both implementations, we construct analytical solutions and show that the L-2-error is similar in both implementations ...

Correlation Dimension as a Measure of the Atrial Fibrillation Capture during Atrial Septal Pacing

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca

In the present model-based study, the correlation dimension (D2) was used as a measure of the effectiveness of atrial septal pacing during atrial fibrillation (AF). From ongoing simulated atrial fibrillation, instantaneous transmembrane potential maps were ...
