Improved brain perfusion after electrical cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.

Europace, 2019
AIMS Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with reduced brain volume, cognitive impairment, and reduced cerebral blood flow. The causes of reduced cerebral blood flow in AF are unknown, but no reduction was seen in individuals without the ...

Changes in oral anticoagulation for elective cardioversion: results from a European cardioversion registry. [PDF]

, 2017
Aims: In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) pharmacological or electrical cardioversion may be performed to restore sinus rhythm. The procedure is associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic events, which can be significantly reduced by ...

What Evidence is Available on Rapid Response Systems Across Europe? Findings From a Scoping Review

Nursing in Critical Care, Volume 30, Issue 6, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Rapid Response Systems (RRS) aim to implement systematic processes for the early detection and management of emergencies in hospitals. Exploring the current characteristics and organisation of RRS in Europe and evaluating clinical outcomes may help identify areas for improvement.

A review of factors associated with maintenance of sinus rhythm after elective electrical cardioversion for atrial fibrillation

Clinical Cardiology, 2018
Atrial fibrillation is the most common heart‐rhythm disorder, affecting about 1.5% to 2% of the population with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity due to stroke, thromboembolism, and heart failure.

Atrial Fibroblasts‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Exacerbate Atrial Arrhythmogenesis

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 37, October 6, 2025.
Exosome miR‐224‐5p derived from angiotensin II‐treated atrial fibroblasts creates a substrate for AF by promoting atrial electrical remodeling. Increased exosome miR‐224‐5p enhances AF susceptibility by inhibiting CACNA1c expression and decreasing ICa current of atrial cardiomyocytes.

Atrial premature depolarisations five days post electrical cardioversion are related to atrial fibrillation recurrence risk in horses.

Equine Veterinary Journal, 2019
BACKGROUND The number of atrial premature depolarisations (APDs) is a known risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence in humans. OBJECTIVES To evaluate if the number of APDs over a 24-hour period five days post cardioversion predicts AF ...

A cost minimisation analysis of NOACs compared to warfarin to attain therapeutic anticoagulation amongst AF patients, pre- and post-cardioversion [PDF]

, 2018
Atrial fibrillation can be managed with anticoagulation and restoration of normal sinus rhythm using direct current cardioversion (DCCV). To reduce the risk of thromboembolism anticoagulation pre-and-post DCCV is recommended.

Left atrial size and function after spontaneous cardioversion of atrial fibrillation and their relation to N-terminal atrial natriuretic peptide [PDF]

, 2003
In conclusion, higher levels of N-ANP during AF were independently associated with spontaneous conversion, as well as with smaller LA volume.An inverse correlation existed between LA volume and N ...

Oxaliplatin‐Induced Hypersensitivity Reactions Resulting in Respiratory and Cardiac Arrest: A Rare Case

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Oxaliplatin‐induced hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs), though rare, can cause life‐threatening cardiopulmonary arrest. This case underscores the importance of early identification of at‐risk patients by oncologists, nurses, and pharmacists.
