[Mechanisms of electromechanical function disturbances in cardiomyocytes overloaded with calcium. The theoretical study].

Arrhythmias and mechanical disturbances are simulated in a mathematical model of cardiomyocyte electromechanical activity. The simulated pattern is similar to that observed for acute heart failure associated with calcium overloading of myocardium cells. Special attention was paid to the calcium overloading resulting from the reduced Na+,K+ pump activity. In the framework of the model, it was shown that mechanical factors could promote arrhythmia initiation when the pump activity reduced. Different approaches to electrical and mechanical function restoration during acute heart failure associated with calcium overloading were suggested and analyzed in the model.
