Abstract

Using a two-contour mathematical model, changes in the degree of heart rate variability induced by an increased extracardial impulsation in the sinoatrial node have been studied. The model is based on quantitative characteristics of impulse conduction in the cardiac conduction system. A mathematical and computer modeling revealed the following three regimes of heart rate variability: linear dynamics, the 1st-degree chaos, and the 2nd-degree chaos. Transitions between these regimes have been studied. A comparative analysis of the one- and two-contour models of heart rate regulation has been performed.
