Role for machine learning in sex-specific prediction of successful electrical cardioversion in atrial fibrillation? [PDF]

Open Heart, 2020
Objective Electrical cardioversion is frequently performed to restore sinus rhythm in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). However, AF recurs in many patients and identifying the patients who benefit from electrical cardioversion is ...

Electrical Cardioversion [PDF]

Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2009
External electrical cardioversion was first performed in the 1950s. Urgent or elective cardioversions have specific advantages, such as termination of atrial and ventricular tachycardia and recovery of sinus rhythm. Electrical cardioversion is life-saving when applied in urgent circumstances.
