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 ...
We present a model-based study of therapeutical approaches to atrial fibrillation with a focus on pacing. After a systematic evaluation of different atrial pacing sites, we selected pacing from the septum area and designed a novel septum pacing protocol fo ...
Repolarization Alternans and Atrial Remodeling Introduction Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) may be triggered by intermittent atrial tachycardia, and ultimately lead to persistent AF. However, the mechanisms by which intermittent atrial tachycardia prom ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most important trigger for heart failure and stroke. Reliable methods for predicting AF are lacking and ECG analysis could improve this process. P-wave characteristics in the ECG are an important source of information in the ...
Preliminary studies showed that the septum area was the only location allowing local capture of both the atria during rapid pacing of atrial fibrillation (AF) from a single site. The present model-based study investigated the influence of atrial substrate ...
Aims: Atrial fibrillation (AF) septal pacing consists of rapid pacing from a ring of electrodes around the atrial septum, leading to local capture of both atria during AF. The present model-based study evaluated the impact of the number of stimulation elec ...
The present study investigates the potential of the Largest Lyapunov Exponent (LLE) for the quantification of AF complexity as a marker of antitachycardia pacing (ATP) effectiveness in a biophysical model of the human atria. From ongoing simulated atrial f ...

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 ...
Rapid pacing of atrial fibrillation (AF) can induce local capture of the atrial tissue and preliminary studies showed that the septum area was the only location allowing simultaneous capture of both atria from a single site. The present model-based study i ...
Our study aims at determining whether the efficiency of step-wise catheter ablation (step-CA) of persistent atrial fibrillation (pAF) can be tracked using organization indices based on the harmonic components of atrial ECG signals until pAF termination. EC ...
