Safety and efficacy of internal cardioversion of atrial fibrillation in patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function.

H F Tse1, C P Lau.   

Abstract

In patients with structural heart disease and left ventricular ejection fraction <40%, internal cardioversion is a safe and effective method for converting persistent atrial fibrillation. The acute success rate and atrial defibrillation requirement for cardioversion in these patients is comparable to patients with lone atrial fibrillation and structurally normal hearts.
