The effect of myocardial action potential duration on cardiac pumping efficacy: a computational study

Abstract Background and aims Although studies on the relation between arrhythmias and the action potential duration (APD) have been carried out, most of them are based only on electrophysiological factors of the heart and lack experiments that consider cardiac mechanical and electromechanical charac...
