Abstract:The effect of mechano‐electrical feedback on re‐entry formation and maintenance was studied using a model of myocardial electromechanics that accounts for two components of myocardial conductivity and delayed strain‐dependent changes in membrane capacitance that causes a conduction slowing. Two scenarios were simulated in 2D numerical experiments: (i) propagation of an excitation–contraction wave beyond the edge of a nonconductive nonexcitable obstacle; (ii) circulation of a re‐entry wave around a nonconductiv… Show more
