Clinical and cost comparison of ibutilide and direct-current cardioversion for atrial fibrillation and flutter.

Abstract

The clinical effectiveness and cost to convert recent-onset atrial fibrillation or flutter to sinus after 3 to 4 weeks of anticoagulation with intravenous ibutilide was compared with direct-current cardioversion. The low success rate with ibutilide made direct-current cardioversion the more clinical and cost-effective method to restore sinus rhythm.
