Cardioversion vs. defibrillation: know the difference! ⚡ Understanding the key differences between cardioversion and defibrillation can save lives! Both involve delivering an electric shock, but their purpose, mode, and indications vary significantly. 🫀 Cardioversion: For arrhythmias with a pulse (think afib, aflutter) - the electric shock is delivered on the R wave to disrupt the cardiac cycle and reset the SA node 🫀 Defibrillation: For arrhythmias without a pulse (like v-fib) - the electric
