Computational Modeling for Antiarrhythmic Drugs for Atrial Fibrillation According to Genotype

Background: The efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs (AAD) can vary in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and the PITX2 gene affects the responsiveness of AADs. We explored the virtual AAD (V-AAD) responses between wild-type and PITX2 +/− -deficient AF conditions by realistic in silico AF modeling. Methods: We tested the V-AADs in AF modeling integrated with patients' 3D-computed tomography and 3D-electroanatomical mapping, acquired in 25...
