Why Cardioversion Is Needed

Performed to restore a normal heart rhythm in patients with certain fast or irregular arrhythmias, most commonly atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, when the abnormal rhythm is causing symptoms or hasn't resolved with medication alone. It's used when getting the heart back into a regular rhythm is expected to improve symptoms and reduce complications like stroke risk from prolonged atrial fibrillation.

Signs You May Need Cardioversion

Palpitations, an irregular or racing heartbeat, fatigue, dizziness, and shortness of breath are common symptoms prompting evaluation, often confirmed by ECG showing atrial fibrillation or flutter. Some patients have few symptoms but are found to be in an abnormal rhythm during a routine check-up.

Types of Cardioversion

Electrical cardioversion uses a brief, synchronized electric shock delivered through pads on the chest under short sedation to reset the heart's rhythm, while pharmacological cardioversion uses medications to chemically restore normal rhythm without electric shock. The choice depends on how quickly rhythm control is needed and the specific arrhythmia involved.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is cardioversion painful?

You're given sedation so you're asleep during the brief shock and won't feel or remember the procedure itself.

Will I need blood thinners before the procedure?

Often yes, especially if the abnormal rhythm has lasted more than 48 hours, to reduce the risk of a blood clot being dislodged when the rhythm is restored.

Does cardioversion cure the underlying arrhythmia?

Not necessarily; it restores normal rhythm in the moment, but the arrhythmia can recur, so ongoing medication or further treatment like ablation may still be needed.

How long does the procedure take?

The cardioversion itself takes only a few minutes, though you'll typically be observed for a few hours afterward before going home.

Is this the same as a defibrillator shock during a cardiac arrest?

No, cardioversion is a planned, controlled procedure for a stable but abnormal rhythm, unlike the emergency defibrillation used during cardiac arrest.

Planning Cardioversion: cost, insurance and recovery

  • Second opinion: for planned surgery it is reasonable to see a second surgeon before deciding, especially if alternatives exist.
  • Written estimate: ask for an itemised estimate for Cardioversion — surgeon and anaesthesia fees, room category, implants or consumables, and expected days in hospital. Costs vary widely between hospitals and cities.
  • Insurance and Ayushman Bharat: check that the hospital is in your insurer's network or empanelled under PM-JAY, and get pre-authorisation for a cashless admission.
  • Before surgery: pre-operative blood tests, ECG or imaging are usually needed; many can be booked with home sample collection.
  • Recovery: ask about the expected recovery time, physiotherapy, wound care and when to return for review.
