Which antiarrhythmic drug to choose after electrical cardioversion: A study on non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The relative efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) after electrical cardioversion are not well established. This study aimed to investigate the efficacies of different AADs for maintaining sinus rhythm (SR) after electrical cardioversion for atrial ...

Cardioverting acute atrial fibrillation and the risk of thromboembolism: not all patients are created equal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Current guidelines support the well-established clinical practice that patients who present with atrial fibrillation (AF) of less than 48 hours duration should be considered for cardioversion, even in the absence of pre-existing anticoagulation. However,

Electrogenic Cardioversion

open access: yesCardiology Research, 2014
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in clinical practice. Cardioversion for AF may be performed by either using direct current (DC) shock (electrical cardioversion) or using drugs (chemical cardioversion). Here we report a case of a patient with heart failure and AF, who reverted to the normal sinus rhythm on correction of ...
