SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EVALUATING EFFECTS OF ANTIARRHYTHMIC AGENT

摘要

A system and method for evaluating effects of an antiarrhythmic agent. The system includes: an action potential measurement unit for measuring a cardiac action potential of a patient; an ion channel characteristics determination unit for determining ion channel characteristics of the patient using the cardiac action potential; and an antiarrhythmic agent effect evaluation unit for simulating a treatment effect of an antiarrhythmic agent by reflecting characteristics of the antiarrhythmic agent on the determined ion channel characteristics of the patient. The system can conveniently determine the patient's ion channel characteristics by measuring the cardiac action potential of the patient, thereby preventing the risk of gathering cardiomyocytes of the patient. In addition, the system can simulate a treatment effect of an antiarrhythmic agent that usually exhibits a different effect and a different level of safety depending on an individual's ion channel characteristics, without being directly applied to the patient.
