Abstract EN
The bidomain model describes the electrical properties of cardiac tissue and is often used to simulate the response of the heart to an electric shock.
The strength-interval curve summarizes how refractory tissue is excited.
This paper analyzes calculations of the strength-interval curve when a stimulus is applied through a unipolar electrode.
In particular, the bidomain model is used to clarify why the cathodal and anodal strength-interval curves are different, and what the mechanism of the “dip” in the anodal strength-interval curve is.
