What is Cardioversion?

Cardioversion is a procedure that restores normal heart rhythm when the heart is beating too fast or irregularly. It is commonly used to treat:
Atrial fibrillation (AFib): A common condition where the heart beats fast and irregularly.
Atrial flutter: A rapid but more organized heart rhythm abnormality.
Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT): An abnormally fast heartbeat originating in the upper chambers of the heart.
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a pulse: A rare but serious condition requiring immediate treatment.
