New Approach of Controlling Cardiac Alternans

The alternans of the cardiac action potential duration is a pathological rhythm. It is considered to be relating to the onset of ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac death. It is well known that, the predictive control is among the control methods that use the chaos to stabilize the unstable fixed point. Firstly, we show that alternans (or period-2 orbit) can be suppressed temporally by the predictive control of the periodic state of the system. Secondly, we determine an estimation of the size of a restricted attraction's basin of the unstable equilibrium point representing the unstable regular rhythm stabilized by the control. This result allows the application of predictive control…

Control of irregular cardiac rhythm

International audience; The aim of this work is to investigate the chaos control of the one di- mensional map which modelizes the duration of the current cardiac action potential (APD) as a function of the previous one. Using OGY control method, we obtain very satisfactory numerical results to stabilize the irregular heart rhythm into the normal rhythm.

Predictive Chaos Control for the 1D-map of Action Potential Duration

International audience; In the present work, a nonlinear control method namely predictive controlis investigated. The proposed method allows stabilizing unstable period-1 rhythm.Using mathematical analysis and computer simulations, we show that this methodcan be used to control chaotic behavior or pathological rhythms. As example, theresults are illustrated in the case of the 1D-map action potential duration (APDi+1)which modelizes the cardiac action potential duration as the function of the previousone (APDi).

International audience; The aim of this work is to investigate the control of the chaos in the one dimensional map which modelizes the duration of the current cardiac action potential (APD) as a function of the previous one. Using OGY control method, we obtain very satisfactory numerical results to stabilize the irregular heart rhythm into the normal rhythm.

Analyse de la dynamique de la durée du potentiel d'action cardiaque à travers un modèle itératif

International audience; Le présent travail a pour but de caractériser, par une étude mathématique rigoureuse la dynamique du modèle itératif de la durée du potentiel d'action. L'étude de ce modèle, qui découle de celui de Beeler Reuter (BR), se caractérise par une dynamique matérialisée par une courbe de restitution et qui peut servir d'outil pertinent dans l'analyse et le diagnostic d'arythmie. Par ailleurs l'analyse de la stabilité du modèle permet de définir les zones d'existence de différents rythmes cardiaques.
