Direct-Current
Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation
• Delivery of an electrical shock synchronized with the
intrinsic activity of the heart
• High initial energy was significantly more effective than low
levels
• Initial energy of 200 J or greater is recommended
• The risks of direct-current cardioversion are mainly related
to thromboembolism and arrhythmias.
• the risk of thromboembolism was between 1% and 5%
• The risk was near the low end when anticoagulation was
given for 3 to 4 wk before and after conversion.
Typical Doses of Drugs Used to Maintain Sinus Rhythm in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Antiarrhythmic drug therapy to maintain sinus rhythm in patients with
recurrent paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation.
• Surgical Ablation
• Catheter Ablation
• Suppression of Atrial Fibrillation Through Pacing
• Internal Atrial Defibrillators
