How electrode size affects the electric potential distribution in cardiac tissue.

S G Patel1, B J Roth.   

Abstract

We investigate the effect of electrode size on the transmembrane potential distribution in the heart during electrical stimulation. The bidomain model is used to calculate the transmembrane potential in a three-dimensional slab of cardiac tissue. Depolarization is strongest under the electrode edge. Regions of depolarization are adjacent to regions of hyperpolarization. The average ratio of peak depolarization to peak hyperpolarization is a function of electrode radius, but over a broad range is close to three.
