@Blase Go to the web site for Rochester University Medical Center or Strong Memorial Hospital/electro physiology lab click on patient information and atrial fibrillation There is a lot of info including excellent visuals about afib.

If I were you I would first of all Google it and see what I come up with! They will give you info no matter what or how you spell it! Cardiac- or Cardio- Conversion- , Cardio-version...Hmm I just found a bunch of stuff on my PINTEREST!!! Go figure! I have a Pinterest Board called "MY Mystery Diagnosis Board" and surprisingly they had a lot of illustrations and easy to follow posters on Cardioversions! You could also do searches on AFib, Chronic AFib, EP, Electrophysiology, Ablation, Arrhythmia, and Statistical Success of Ablation Procedures for Afib. You will get hooked on doing these searches, either on your laptop, computer, or your iphone! Blase, I do wish you the best and DO ask your EP at Mr. Sinai Hospital to please send you some literature about your procedure before you have it! I know that I have read many posts right here on HealthUnlocked about this procedure! I myself have a Cardiac Synchronization Device to keep my heart beating in-synch, so I have only had to have one ablation and no Cardioversions, but I would definitely be asking the APN or inboxing my EP about it, plus Googling and searching all the info I could!!! Good luck to you and I really hope all goes well and that you keep us posted!
