 abstract = {Ventricular fibrillation (VF), the major reason behind sudden caxdiac
death, is turbulent cardiac, electrical activity in which rapid,
irregular disturbances in spatiotemporal electrical activation of heart
make if incapable of any concerted pumping action. We give a brief
overview of the simple Panfilov model for ventricular fibrillation, with
emphasis on studies that have elucidated the nature of spiral turbulence
which is the analog of VF here.-The control-of such turbulence
is-briefly touched upon. Preliminary results are presented for the
effects of conduction inhomogeneity on spiral breakup, and the
transition from functional to anatomical reentry as a function of
the-size and position of the inhomogeneity.},
