A Simulation Study of the Role of Mechanical Stretch in Arrhythmogenesis during Cardiac Alternans
The deformation of the heart tissue due to the contraction can modulate the excitation, a phenomenon referred to as mechanoelectrical feedback (MEF), via stretch-activated channels. The effects of MEF on the electrophysiology at high pacing rates are shown to be proarrhythmic in general. However, mo...
