An integrated heart-torso electromechanical model for the simulation of electrophysiological outputs accounting for myocardial deformation
Alfio Quarteroni, Francesco Regazzoni
When generating in-silico clinical electrophysiological outputs, such as electrocardiograms (ECGs) and body surface potential maps (BSPMs), mathematical models have relied on single physics, i.e. of the cardiac electrophysiology (EP), neglecting the role o ...
Elsevier Science Sa2024Finding information-rich electrocardiographic biomarkers to characterize atrial fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia; it will affect one in four adults worldwide in their lifetime. AF has serious consequences, including drastically increased risk of stroke. Catheter ablation surgery is an established treatmen ...
EPFL2023Atomic-Level and Surface Structure of Calcium Silicate Hydrate Nanofoils
Karen Scrivener, Paul Bowen, Aslam Kunhi Mohamed, Ziga Casar
Deciphering the calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) surface is crucial for unraveling the mechanisms of cement hydration and property development. Experimental observations of C-S-H in cement systems suggest a surface termination which is fundamentally differ ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2023Hardware-oriented pruning and quantization of Deep Learning models to detect life-threatening arrhythmias
Alexandre Schmid, Lizeth Gonzalez Carabarin
Wearable solutions based on Deep Learning (DL) for real-time ECG monitoring are a promising alternative to detect life-threatening arrhythmias. However, DL models suffer of a large memory footprint, which hampers their adoption in portable technologies. Th ...
IEEE2021Implantable Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor for Continuous Heart Activity Monitoring: Ex-Vivo and In-Vivo Validation
Continuous and reliable cardiac function monitoring could improve medication adherence in patients at risk of heart failure. This work presents an innovative implantable Fiber Bragg Grating-based soft sensor designed to sense mechanical cardiac activity. T ...
IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2021Ventricular response regularity in atrial fibrillation and its relationship to successful catheter ablation
Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Etienne Pruvot
Atrial rate is known to modulate ventricular response during atrial fibrillation (AF). The resulting pulse irregularity translates into widely varying inter-beat intervals (IBIs) extracted from recorded surface electrocardiogram (ECG) activity. In AF, the ...
IEEE2020Outer loop and isthmus in ventricular tachycardia circuits: Characteristics and implications
Alfio Quarteroni, Andrea Manzoni, Stefano Pagani
BACKGROUND The isthmus of ventricular tachycardia (VT) circuits has been extensively characterized. Few data exist regarding the contribution of the outer loop (OL) to the VT circuit. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to characterize the electrophysi ...
2020The effect of the elongation of the proximal aorta on the estimation of the aortic wall distensibility
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Bram Trachet, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou, Mauro Ferraro
The compliance of the proximal aortic wall is a major determinant of cardiac afterload. Aortic compliance is often estimated based on cross-sectional area changes over the pulse pressure, under the assumption of a negligible longitudinal stretch during the ...
