Overview

Modelers should verify compressibility to avoid repolarization artifacts; leaves open MEF effects under realistic compressible conditions.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Computational model based on a three-dimensional (3D) geometry of a healthy rat left ventricle reconstructed from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
I
Intervention
Integration of various types of passive mechanical laws (nearly incompressible/compressible, polynomial/exponential-type, transversally isotropic/orthotropic material models) in a fully coupled electromechanical model
C
Comparator
Comparison between different passive material models (e.g., compressible vs. incompressible, polynomial vs. exponential)
O
Outcome
Influence of passive material models on the overall mechano-electrical feedback (MEF) behavior, including transmembrane potential and relaxation deformationssurrogate

The choice of passive material model, particularly compressibility and exponential laws, significantly impacts the simulated mechano-electrical feedback in computational cardiac models.
