Effects of mechano-electrical feedback on the onset of alternans: A computational study
Hazim, Azzam; Belhamadia, Youssef; Dubljevic, Stevan (AIP, 2019-06)Cardiac alternans is a heart rhythm instability that is associated with cardiac arrhythmias and may lead to sudden cardiac death. The onset of this instability, which is linked to period-doubling bifurcation and may be a ... -
Mechanical perturbation control of cardiac alternans
Hazim, Azzam; Belhamadia, Youssef; Dubljevic, Stevan (American Physical Society, 2018)Cardiac alternans is a disturbance in heart rhythm that is linked to the onset of lethal cardiac arrhythmias. Mechanical perturbation control has been recently used to suppress alternans in cardiac tissue of relevant size. ... -
A Simulation Study of the Role of Mechanical Stretch in Arrhythmogenesis during Cardiac Alternans
Hazim, Azzam; Belhamadia, Youssef; Dubljevic, Stevan (Biophysical Society, 2021-01)The deformation of the heart tissue due to the contraction can modulate the excitation, a phenomenon referred to as mechanoelectrical feedback (MEF), via stretch-activated channels. The effects of MEF on the electrophysiology ...
