In the study presented in this thesis we have used one-dimensional model to study mechanisms associated with the application of the external stimulus to the cardiac tissue. Arrhythmic dynamics is approximated with the reentrant wave on a ring of cardiac tissue. Successful defibrillation is modeled with the complete removal of the reentrant dynamics. The propagation of the electrical signal is modeled with the bidomain model, while cellular membrane current is modeled with the modified Beeler-Reuter model. Three well known and clinically used defibrillation protocols have been compared for different parameters of the system: monophasic, symmetric biphasic and asymmetric biphasic. Extensive numerical simulations performed for the shock dura...
