Abstract:Background:The heterogeneity in the human left ventricle is augmented by heterogeneous perfusion defects in dialysis patients. We hypothesized that ischemic zones generated by heterogeneous perfusion are a cause of clinically observed post-dialysis arrhythmia. This preliminary study assessed the arrhythmia potential in a heterogeneously perfused 2D human ventricle computational model. Aim: Our aim was to ascertain a relationship between the number of ischemia zones and incidence of multiple re-entrant waves in… Show more
