A wave front interaction model is developed to describe the relationship between excitability and the size and shape of stabilized wave segments in a broad class of weakly excitable media. These wave segments of finite size are unstable but can be stabilized by feedback to the medium excitability; they define a separatrix between spiral wave behavior and contracting wave segments. Unbounded wave segments (critical fingers) lie on the asymptote of this separatrix, defining the boundary between excitable and subexcitable media. The model predictions are compared with results from numerical simulations.
