Role of atrial pressure in the success of electrical cardioversion of chronic atrial fibrillation

In 40 patients with chronic long-standing atrial fibrillation, we investigated the effects of hemodynamic variables on the initial success of transthoracic electrical cardioversion. It was found that left atrial pressure measured as pulmonary capillary wedge pressure was the most powerful predictor...
