Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Already we have previously shown that pulsive vibration occurs on the myocardium after electrical stimulation of an isolated heart. In this study, using a novel technique for ultrasonic measurement of the myocardial motion, we detected pulsive vibrations spontaneously caused by electrical excitation and by valve closer. Using a sparse sector scan, the vibrations were measured almost simultaneously at about 10,000 points set in the heart wall at a high temporal resolution. We have successfully found another new type of cardiac dissipative solitary waves resonant interaction together with propagating Bekki Nozaki-hole(BN-hole). These propagating solitary waves play a crucial role in the IVS wall motion and significantly correlated with dynamical behavior of these elastic QRS complex waves. Here, we show, for the first time, that the detailed peculiar cardiac dark multi-solitary waves in the excited waves on a human cardiac IVS play the crucial role in length-dependent force changes of contractile activity when the myocardium exhibits a region of local absolute instability which is sufficiently large.
