Cardioversion Efficacy Using Pulsed Biphasic or Biphasic Truncated Exponential Waveforms: A Randomized Clinical Trial [Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology]

ConclusionsCardioversion using a BTE waveform was more effective when compared with a PB waveform. There was no difference in safety between the 2 waveforms, as judged by changes in troponin I levels.Clinical Trial RegistrationURL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT02317029.
