Nonlinear reaction-diffusion models of self-organization and deterministic chaos: Theory and possible applications to description of electrical cardiac activity and cardiovascular circulation

The paper shows that analytical dynamic models coupled with the available signal processing methods could be used for describing the self-organization and chaos degree in the heartbeats propagation and pressure pulses in ventricular at ejection phase. We proposed a unit analytical approach that coul...

Description
Summary:The paper shows that analytical dynamic models coupled with the available signal processing methods could be used for describing the self-organization and chaos degree in the heartbeats propagation and pressure pulses in ventricular at ejection phase. We proposed a unit analytical approach that could be associated with real ECG and pressure pulses signal processing. Our findings confirm that the real-time computer monitoring of the main cardiovascular parameters obtained by the use of analytical models and verified by signal processing of real clinical data may be considered as available method for measuring and controlling self-organization and chaos degree in pulse propagation.
