Electrical cardioversion for atrial fibrillation and flutter [PDF]

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2005
Atrial fibrillation increases stroke risk and adversely affects cardiovascular haemodynamics. Electrical cardioversion may, by restoring sinus rhythm, improve cardiovascular haemodynamics, reduce the risk of stroke, and obviate the need for long-term anticoagulation.To assess the effects of electrical cardioversion of atrial fibrillation or flutter on ...

Impact of electric cardioversion on platelet activation

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2021
Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) comes along with high risk of stroke. This risk continues even after re-establishing sinus rhythm with cardioversion. Aim of this study is to evaluate the contribution of electric cardioversion (EC) to platelet activation and procoagulatory tendency.
