intracavitary potentials
Explanation:
Hi Andre

Intracavitary potentials are some of the endocardial potentials that we measure during an electrophysiologic study.

The goal when recording intracavitary potentials (and endocardial potentiasl in general) is to map the cardiac activation pattern and detect arrhythmia paths.

Good luck

BACKGROUND: Mapping of endocardial activation is an important procedure for diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias and locating the arrhythmogenic site before treatment. The objective of the present study was to develop and test a mathematical method to reconstruct the **endocardial potentials** and activation sequences (isochrones) from potential data measured with a noncontact, intracavitary multielectrode probe (the "inverse problem"). METHODS AND RESULTS: A boundary element based mathematical method, combined with a numeric regularization technique, was developed for computing the inverse solution. **Endocardial potentials** were computed from **intracavitary potentials** measured with a multielectrode probe placed in the cavity of an isolated, perfused canine left ventricle. Data were acquired during rhythms induced by electrical stimuli applied at different locations and varying depths within the myocardium. **Endocardial potentials** were measured using intramural needles to evaluate the accuracy of the inverse solutions by direct comparison. Inversely computed endocardial potentials....


An idealized mathematical model was developed to study the effects of variations in conductive and geometric parameters on measured endocardial and **intracavitary potentials**. The model consists of a spherical multielectrode probe located eccentrically within a system of concentric spheres that represent a blood cavity, myocardium, lung region, and surface muscle layer. Solutions were found for endocardial and **intracavitary probe potentials** produced by two different configurations of equivalent myocardial sources: 1) multiple activation wave fronts oriented radially, representing global fronts in the myocardium; and.......
