Atrial Fibrillation: Cardioversion
(animation.)
This 3D animation shows how an abnormal heart rhythm, such as atrial fibrillation (a-fib or afib), can be restored with electrical cardioversion.
This animation shows normal heart rhythm with electrical signals that originate at the SA node.
A heart with abnormal signals and atrial fibrillation is shown forming a blood clot which results in a stroke.
Next, the steps of the cardioversion procedure are illustrated: the placement of EKG electrodes, the placement of cardioversion paddles, the delivery of shock to the chest and heart, and the restoration of normal electrical signals within the heart.
Thanks for sharing remarkable post. keep posting and I'm waiting for the next one. cardiology personal statement
