The propagation of electric activity inside a realistically-shaped, thick-walled model of the atria was studied. The membrane kinetics was based on the formulations of Courtemanche, Ramirez and Nattel. In spite of the assumed uniformity of all kinetics par ...
In pacing-induced models of atrial fibrillation (AF) that mimic atrial high-frequency foci, the increase in AF susceptibility over time is not paralleled by any increase in dispersion of repolarization (DOR). Measurements of effective refractory periods (E ...
For over a century, electrocardiology has been observing human cardiac activity through recordings of electrocardiograms (ECG). The potential differences derived from the nine electrodes of the standard 12-lead ECG, placed at their designated positions, ar ...
Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance, increasing in prevalence with age. During the past 20 years, there has been a 66% increase in hospital admissions related to atrial fibrillation. Neither the natural history of at ...

Aims: Experimental models have reported conflicting results regarding the role of dispersion of repolarization in promoting atrial fibrillation (AF). Repolarization alternans, a beat-to-beat alternation in action potential duration, enhances dispersion of ...

Background In the literature, several different transfer matrices have been presented for deriving the vectorcardiogram (VCG) from the signals observed using a limited set of electrodes. Even when the electrode locations were identical, like 9 of the stand ...
One of the rhythm control strategies in atrial fibrillation management consists in the application of a brief single electrical shock to the atria. This electrical cardioversion does not always succeed, and the long-term success of this therapy is not suff ...

Doctor Macchi reported on the progress of an animal model study of electric propagation initiated by electric stimuli. Doctor Oostendorp first gave an introduction to the inverse problem of cardiac activation time mapping (ATM), the determination of the de ...
Clinical standard 12-lead ECG recordings over 5 minutes on patients in atrial fibrillation or in atrial flutter were analyzed. After suppression of the signal components related to ventricular activity, the amplitude spectra of all leads were inspected. Th ...
