Defibrillation and Cardioversion
Critical Care Clinics, 1992To optimize the success of defibrillation, the clinician needs to minimize impedance, choose the proper energy level, apply the proper interface, select the appropriate paddle size, and deliver the shock at the earliest possible time. Other factors that may contribute to effective defibrillation include defibrillation during exhalation, maintenance of ...

THE conversion of cardiac arrhythmias by directcurrent countershock has become widely accepted but has usually required the use of general anesthesia, with its attendant hazards and practical problems. The last 15 patients undergoing cardioversion in our laboratory have been prepared for electric shock with a single intravenous injection of diazepam ...

Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1975
Abstract Diazepam has been used to an increasing extent in cardioversion, since avoiding general anaesthesia simplifies the procedure. The present study concerns the effect of diazepam on BP and blood gases in 13 cases of cardioversion. A moderate fall of both systolic and diastolic BP occurred. The arterial pO2 and pCO2 did not change significantly.

Journal of PeriAnesthesia Nursing, 1999
Elective electrical cardioversions are commonly scheduled to be performed in the PACU because of the availability of nursing and anesthesia support. This report examines preanesthetic patient preparation as well as a review of the procedural aspects of electrical cardioversion.
