slide 1 of 6. A cardioversion is a procedure that returns an irregularly beating heart (arrhythmia) to a normal (sinus) rhythm. To do this, a carefully controlled electrical impulse is delivered to the heart. Heart arrhythmias are not unusual and many are not serious and require no treatment.
If your heart has an irregular (uneven) beat or is beating too fast, cardioversion is a way to restore a regular rhythm. Abnormal heart rhythms are called arrhythmias. There are two kinds of cardioversion. Your doctor may give you one or more medicines to bring back your regular heartbeat. This is called pharmacologic (chemical) cardioversion. Doctors also restore regular rhythms by sending an electrical shock to the heart. This is called electrical cardioversion. 1  Arrhythmias may prevent blood from circulating properly to your heart and brain. 2  Most often, doctors use cardioversion to treat a fast, irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation.
