Spatial inhomogeneities in cardiac tissue, such as fibroblast clumps, scar tissue, or ischemic tissue, are well known to be sources of reentrant activity in the muscle that can induce certain cardiac arrhythmias. In this paper, two models of cardiac tissue were investigated. First, a homogeneous cardiac tissue model is introduced, in which the normal action potential distribution is shown. The second model with spatial inhomogeneity(regional ischemia, scar tissue, fibroblast clumps) that induces the reentrant activity of the cardiac tissue. The distribution of the action potential was solved in the cardiac tissue using a monodomain model with a modified FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) ionic model. To simulate the inhomogeneity in the tissue, one parameter of the FHN model that accounts for the excitability of the cell was modified, as well as the diffusion coefficient in the reaction-diffusion equation. This modification led to the reentrant activity in the second model. This simplified model can be used to study arrhythmogenic waves induced by spatial inhomogeneities in cardiac tissue.
