    Area of Science:

    • Computational biology
    • Cardiac electrophysiology

    Context:

    • Investigating cardiac vulnerability mechanisms is crucial for understanding and preventing arrhythmias.
    • Mathematical modeling provides a powerful tool to simulate complex cardiac electrical phenomena.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the mechanisms of cardiac vulnerability induced by premature stimuli using mathematical models.
    • To explore the influence of tissue properties and stimulus timing on the vulnerable period.

    Summary:

    • Simulations on Wiener's and Nobel's models explored vulnerability via reentry and focal reexcitation.
    • The study identified reentry occurring at the border of high refractoriness regions, influenced by region dimensions and tissue heterogeneity (epsilon).
    • A dip-phenomenon was observed in Nobel's model, linking vulnerable zone location to threshold values.
