Hund-Rudy Model

Dog Ventricular Cell Model - 2004

This applet is used to simulate the activation of dog ventricular epicardial myocytes using the 30-variable model of Thomas Hund and Yoram Rudy (Circulation 2004; 110: 3168-3174).

Using the applet, the myocyte can be paced at various cycle lengths and the final APD and DI are calculated automatically. In addition, it is possible to visualize the currents, gate variables, and ionic concentrations.

Click "Start" to start the simulation. Use "Replot" to replot on the screen once a check box has been selected or a new value has been entered for S1, S2 or N. Use "Plot Currents" to plot the various currents of the model.
