Research Notes on Cardioversion vs. Ablation


Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a condition where the two upper chambers of the heart lose the normal rhythm contraction. As a result, the heart is not able to pump enough blood to supply the whole body, hence leading to oxygen deprivation. Treatment options for AF include cardioversion, where a defibrillator is used, and an antiarrhythmic drug may be administered to restore the normal beat. Another option for treating AF is ablation. The procedure involves destroying the abnormal tissue areas of the heart and restoring normal beat and rhythm.
