Generating Purkinje networks in the human heart.
The Purkinje network is an integral part of the excitation system in the human heart. Yet, to date, there is no in vivo imaging technique to accurately reconstruct its geometry and structure. Computational modeling of the Purkinje network is increasingly recognized as an alternative strategy to visualize, simulate, and understand the role of the Purkinje system. However, most computational mode...
متن کاملThe IUFP Algorithm for Generating Simulation Heart
In all systems simulation, random variates are considered as a main factor and based of simulation heart. Actually, randomization is inducted by random variates in the simulation. Due to the importance of such a problem, a new method for generation of random variates from continuous distributions is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm, called uniform fractional part (UFP) is simpler...
متن کاملEffect of amiodarone on conduction and refractoriness of the His-Purkinje system in the human heart.
Although the antiarrhythmic aspect of amiodarone has been extensively studied, its effects on His-Purkinje system conduction and refractoriness have not been systematically investigated in human beings. In 24 patients, anterograde His-Purkinje system conduction (HV intervals) and variables of His-Purkinje system refractoriness using the ventricular extrastimulus (V2) technique were analyzed bef...
متن کاملPurkinje Fibers of the Heart Examined with the Peroxidase Reaction
The continuity of the transverse tubules in muscle with the extracellular space is of great physiological significance. Such a continuity is difficult to demonstrate morphologically, if, as in the case in skeletal muscle of the frog and other animals, the transverse tubules are very small or, as in the case of frog slow muscle (1), the tubules are not only very small, but are few in number. Nev...
متن کاملHuman mesenchymal stem cells form Purkinje fibers in fetal sheep heart.
BACKGROUND We have investigated the usefulness of a model of cardiac development in a large mammal, sheep, for studies of engraftment of human stem cells in the heart. METHODS AND RESULTS Adult and fetal human mesenchymal stem cells were injected intraperitoneally into sheep fetuses in utero. Hearts at late fetal development were analyzed for engraftment of human cells. The majority of the en...
