Direct current cardioversion does not cause cardiac damage: evidence from cardiac troponin T estimation.

A C Rao¹, N Naeem, C John, P O Collinson, R Canepa-Anson, S P Joseph.

Abstract

AIM: To determine whether elective direct current (dc) cardioversion of atrial fibrillation/flutter causes myocardial damage. METHODS AND
RESULTS: Cardiac troponin T and creatine kinase were estimated 20-28 hours after dc cardioversion in 51 patients who received dc shocks for elective cardioversion of chronic atrial fibrillation/flutter. Although creatine kinase was raised in 44 patients, cardiac troponin T was undetectable in all patients.
CONCLUSION: Cardiac damage does not occur as a result of cardioversion.
