Covering both electrical and pharmacological cardioversion in depth, the text walks the reader through patient selection, anticoagulation strategies, peri-procedural planning, sedation, energy selection, drug choice, and post-procedure management. Clear flowcharts, structured algorithms, dosing tables, and checklists translate complex electrophysiological concepts into actionable bedside practice.
Special attention is given to challenging scenarios, including atrial fibrillation and flutter, failed cardioversion, special populations (pregnancy, obesity, implanted devices), and complication management. Contemporary ACC, AHA, and ESC guideline recommendations are embedded throughout, alongside practical pearls derived from frontline clinical experience.
More than a procedural manual, this book emphasizes clinical judgment: when cardioversion is appropriate, when it should be deferred, and how to optimize long-term rhythm outcomes through anticoagulation, antiarrhythmic therapy, lifestyle modification, and referral for ablation.
Written for cardiologists, electrophysiologists, acute and emergency physicians, trainees, specialist nurses, and allied healthcare professionals, Electrical & Chemical Cardioversion: Practical Insights serves as both a practical handbook and a decision-support reference for clinicians committed to delivering safe, patient-centered rhythm control.
