Pharmacological Cardioversion

Intravenous Procainamide and Oral Flecainide are often used for cardioversion of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (AF). Hypertensive patients may have problems ofproarrythmias with these agents and Intravenous Amiodarone may be an effective safer alternative. The utility of Intravenous Amiodarone in such group of patients in the Himalayan kingdom of Nepal has never been assessed.

Pharmacological Cardioversion

This study demonstrates the effectiveness of procainamide, propafenone and amiodaronefor pharmacological cardioversion in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The restoration of the sinus rhythm within 60 minutes was observed for propafenone 73,2%, for procainamide 55,00% and for amiodarone 16,13% of cases.
