Ischemic heart disease is the most common cause of lethal ventricular arrhythmias and
sudden cardiac death (SCD). In patients who are at high risk after myocardial infarction …

Patient-specific cardiac models are now being used to guide therapies. The increased use
of patient-specific cardiac simulations in clinical care will give rise to the development of …

Computational techniques have significantly advanced our understanding of cardiac
electrophysiology, yet they have predominantly concentrated on averaged models that do …

Introduction: Cannabis use results in elevation of heart rate and blood pressure immediately
after use, primarily due to sympathetic nervous system stimulation and parasympathetic …

Patient-specific computer simulations can be a powerful tool in clinical applications, helping
in diagnostics and the development of new treatments. However, its practical use depends …

Models of electrical activation and recovery in cardiac cells and tissue have become
valuable research tools, and are beginning to be used in safety-critical applications …

This manuscript presents a novel finite difference method to solve cardiac bidomain
equations in anatomical models of the heart. The proposed method employs a smoothed …

The development of effective and safe therapies for scar-related ventricular tachycardias
requires a detailed understanding of the mechanisms underlying the conduction block that …

Fractional differential equations have become a fundamental modelling approach for
understanding and simulating the many aspects of non-locality and spatial heterogeneity of …

In this work, we present a computational study of the Brugada Syndrome (BrS) phenotype
aimed at investigating the main factors contributing to the development of arrhythmias. We …
