Management Antiarrhythmic drug therapy, DC cardioversion, anticoagulation, atrial flutter ablation, permanent pacemaker implantation, continuous positive airway pressure and weight loss.

Background: Several clinical factors have been studied to predict atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after electrical cardioversion (ECV) with limited predictive value. Methods: A method able to ...

Likewise, the larger the left atrium, the less likely that sinus rhythm can be maintained after cardioversion, especially without antiarrhythmic drugs. Physiological atrioventricular (AV ...

The pharmacological treatment of VF/pulseless VT is of secondary importance to early defibrillation. Administration of antiarrhythmic drugs is considered in cases of refractory VF/pulseless VT—that is ...
