A triad of shoulder injuries following cardioversion: a case report [PDF]

Transthoracic defibrillation and cardioversion are commonly used techniques to resuscitate a patient during acute cardiac arrhythmic events. There are numerous complications associated with these procedures. We report a previously unreported complication

Safety and efficacy of a cardiologist-only approach to deep sedation for electrical cardioversion

, 2019
Electrical cardioversion is still the preferred method to restore sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation. The main disadvantage is that electrical cardioversion requires deep sedation, generally administered by anaesthesiologists, for safety ...

Electrical cardioversion for persistent atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter in clinical practice: predictors of long-term outcome.

, 2007
Despite the results of Atrial Fibrillation Follow-up Investigation of Rhythm Management and Rate Control versus Electrical Cardioversion for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation trials, which favour a general shift in atrial fibrillation (AF) therapeutic ...

Predictors of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence in Hyperthyroid and Euthyroid Patients

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2016
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in adults, and is encountered in 10-15% of the patients with hyperthyroidism. Unless euthyroidism is restored, pharmacological or electrical cardioversion is controversial in patients ...

Pre-cardioversion heart rate variability predicts recurrence of atrial fibrillation after electrical cardioversion

, 2014
Abnormalities of the cardiac autonomic nervous system could trigger the relapse of atrial fibrillation (AF) after electrical cardioversion. We analyzed pre-cardioversion heart rate variability (HRV), and sought to find its predictive value for the ...

Pharmacological cardioversion for atrial fibrillation

, 2018
Pharmacological or electrical cardioversion is an integral part of rhythm control management. Antiarrhythmic drugs for pharmacological cardioversion include intravenous formulations of flecainide, propafenone, amiodarone, ibutilide, and vernakalant.

Baseline NT-Pro-BNP Levels and Arrhythmia Recurrence in Outpatients Undergoing Elective Cardioversion of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: A Survival Analysis

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2009
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Elective electrical cardioversion is often performed in patients with persistent AF to attempt sinus rhythm (SR) restoration. However, AF recurrences are

A Unified Three‐Step Mirror‐Image Protocol for ECG, Echocardiography, and Cardioversion in Dextrocardia: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports
Dextrocardia with situs inversus totalis presents challenges in routine cardiovascular procedures. Although individual adaptations for electrocardiography, echocardiography, or cardioversion have been described, integrated guidance across these ...
