Intermittent Atrial Tachycardia Promotes Repolarization Alternans and Conduction Slowing During Rapid Rates, and Increases Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation in a Free-Behaving Sheep Model

Jean-Marc Vesin, Florian Jousset, Etienne Pruvot

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 ...

Mathematical modelling of active contraction in isolated cardiomyocytes

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Simone Rossi, Aymen Laadhari

We investigate the interaction of intracellular calcium spatio-temporal variations with the self-sustained contractions in cardiac myocytes. A consistent mathematical model is presented considering a hyperelastic description of the passive mechanical prope ...

Improved temporal resolution for functional studies with reduced number of segments with three-dimensional echo planar imaging

Rolf Gruetter, Tobias Kober, Wietske Van der Zwaag, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Mayur Narsude

PURPOSE: To introduce a new k-space traversal strategy for segmented three-dimensional echo planar imaging (3D EPI) that encodes two partitions per radiofrequency excitation, effectively reducing the number excitations used to acquire a 3D EPI dataset by h ...

Patient-specific generation of the Purkinje network driven by clinical measurements of a normal propagation

Alfio Quarteroni, Fabio Nobile, Christian Vergara, Elena Faggiano

The propagation of the electrical signal in the Purkinje network is the starting point for the activation of the ventricular muscular cells leading to the contraction of the ventricle. In the computational models, describing the electrical activity of the ...

Mathematical modeling and numerical simulation of excitation-contraction phenomena in the heart

In this Master thesis we aim at studying some physiological and computational aspects of the excitation-contraction mechanisms in the heart muscle. This phenomenon exhibits many complexities at different spatio-temporal scales. The relevance and applicabil ...

Impact of Bachmann’s Bundle on Rapid Pacing of Atrial Fibrillation from the Septum Area

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 ...

Phenomenological and physiological approaches in the study of cardiac alternans: Theoretical background, mathematical modeling and numerical simulations

This project presents the theoretical background in electrophysiology that is used as a basis in the development of numerical methods for the simulation of heart’s electrical activity. We discuss the mathematical models currently used in cardiac electrophy ...

Numerical simulation of left ventricular assist device implantations: comparing the ascending and the descending aorta cannulations

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Adelmo Cristiano Innocenza Malossi, Jean Bonnemain, Matteo Lesinigo, Ludwig Von Segesser

In this work we present numerical simulations of continuous flow left ventricle assist device implantation with the aim of comparing the ascending and the descending aorta anastomosis of outflow cannula. Despite the fact that the second approach is less in ...

Multichannel ECG Analysis Using VPW-FRI

Pina Marziliano, Gilles Baechler

In this paper, we present an application of Variable Pulse Width Finite Rate of Innovation (VPW-FRI) in dealing with multichannel Electrocardiogram (ECG) data using a common annihilator. By extending the conventional FRI model to include additional paramet ...

Finite Rate of Innovation Based Modeling and Compression of ECG Signals

Gilles Baechler, Nikolaos Freris

Mobile health is gaining increasing importance for society and the quest for new power efficient devices sampling biosignals is becoming critical. We discuss a new scheme called Variable PulseWidth Finite Rate of Innovation (VPW-FRI) to model and compress ...
