A computational analysis of atrial fibrillation effects on coronary perfusion across the different myocardial layers
Abstract Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) may present ischemic chest pain in the absence of classical obstructive coronary disease. Among the possible causes, the direct hemodynamic effect exerted by the irregular arrhythmia has not been studied in detail. We performed a computational fluid dy...
