DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2024.1091
Abstract: Importance Atrial fibrillation and obesity are common, and both are increasing in prevalence. Obesity is associated with failure of cardioversion of atrial fibrillation using a standard single set of defibrillator pads, even at high output.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2018.10.079
Abstract: BACKGROUND Arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and intracardiac thrombus are common in patients with cardiac amyloidosis (CA). Outcomes of direct-current cardioversion (DCCV) for atrial arrhythmias in patients with CA are unknown. OBJECTIVES This study sought to examine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehae666.562
Abstract: Catheter ablation (CA) for persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAF) is associated with high rates of AF recurrence. DC cardioversion (DCCV) is often performed before CA, with wide variation in duration of maintenance of sinus rhythm (SR)… read more here.
