The paper describes principles of the two-dimensional computer model of the heart's electrical potential activity based on formalism, created for the cell membrane by Hodgkin and Huxley. The main equations have been shown, and all kinds of heart cells involved in simulation have been considered. The method of obtaining ECG from the model was discussed together with ECG examples obtained from the computer simulations. A comparison of computer simulated and the real ECG for the atrioventricular block has been made. As an example of application, a set of simulation of heart muscIe responses on the external disturbance formed in the impulse have been presented.
