Difference equation model of ventricular parasystole as an interaction between cardiac pacemakers based on the phase
Abstract:
A model of extended ventricular parasystole proposed by Moe et al. (1977) was formulated as a system of nonlinear difference equations by using the phase response curve of myocardial pacemakers. A number of ECG patterns of ventricular arrhythmia such as bigeminy, trigeminy etc. were explained from the property of periodic solutions of the equation. Characteristic properties of special kinds of arrhythmia called "concealed bigeminy" and "concealed trigeminy" were derived mathematically by assuming the model, in relation to the equation of the analog neuron model. The present study was considered to be of clinical significance as a theoretical foundation for the study of genesis of cardiac arrhythmias.

Correlation between ECG and Cardiac Cycle
A cardiac action potential originates in the SA node and spreads throughout the atria and the AV node in approximately 0.03 seconds. This results in the P wave in an ECG and triggers atrial contraction. The action potential is then briefly slowed at the AV node, allowing the atria to contract and fill the ventricles with blood before...
Cardiac Action Potential
The cardiac action potential process involves a series of phases characterized by the movement of ions across the cardiac cell membranes, leading to the depolarization and repolarization of the cardiac myocytes.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
