A Patient-Specific Methodology for Prediction of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Onset

David Atienza Alonso, Jean-Marc Vesin, Amir Aminifar, Adrian Luca, Sasan Yazdani, Elisabetta De Giovanni

In spite of the progress in management of Atrial Fibrillation (AF), this arrhythmia is one of the major causes of stroke and heart failure. The progression of this pathology from a silent paroxysmal form (PAF) into a sustained AF can be prevented by predic ...

Method for detecting abnormalities in an electrocardiogram

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Francisco Javier Rincon Vallejos, Ruben Braojos Lopez, Srinivasan Murali

A method for classification of ECG beats into normal and different categories of abnormal beats. The method comprises the following steps, performed on a computing platform: a. performing a training phase comprising taking as an input one or more ECG beats ...

Mechano-electrical contribution of ventricular contractions to the complexity of atrial fibrillation electrograms

Jean-Marc Vesin, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot, Sarah Volorio

Purpose: Intracardiac organization indices (OI) have been used to track the efficiency of stepwise radiofrequency catheter ablation (step-CA) of persistent atrial fibrillation (pers-AF). A better understanding of the components and complexity of AF electro ...

Intercellular calcium waves are associated with the propagation of vasomotion along arterial strips

Jean-Jacques Meister, Jean-Louis Bény, Roger Sauser, Dominique Seppey, Michèle Koenigsberger

Vasomotion consists of cyclic arterial diameter variations induced by synchronous contractions and relaxations of smooth muscle cells. However, the arteries do not contract simultaneously on macroscopic distances, and a propagation of the contraction can b ...

Intercellular calcium dynamics in smooth muscle cells : propagation of arterial vasomotion and influence of the endothelium

Dominique Seppey

Muscular arteries are able to actively modify their diameter by modulating the tone of the smooth muscle cells located within the arterial wall. A small variation of lumen diameter has a large influence on blood flow as well as on arterial pressure. The ca ...
