Introduction: Successful synchronized direct current cardioversion (DCCV) requires adequate current delivery to the heart. However, adequate current for successful DCCV is not yet established.

To date, there are no clinical data on the efficacy of the impedance‐compensated (ie, adjusted to patient's chest impedance) PB waveform, which is currently in use for direct current cardioversion and ...

Cardiologists at University of Utah Health use this therapy for people with heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), including atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation (AFib). Your heart’s electrical ...

La cardioversion est proche de la défibrillation mais l'équipe médicale utilise un courant moins fort. Cela se fait grâce à deux palettes métalliques posées sur le thorax et reliées à un ...

Patients with recent-onset atrial fibrillation commonly undergo immediate restoration of sinus rhythm by pharmacologic or electrical cardioversion. However, whether immediate restoration of sinus ...

ATRIAL fibrillation is one of the most prevalent of the chronic rhythm disorders of the heart. It is a derangement with serious implications. Even when the patient is asymptomatic the arrhythmia is by ...

Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a kind of irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia. A problem with the electrical signals that control your heart’s pumping action causes it to beat too fast in a pattern that ...
