Cardioversion is used to correct abnormal heart rhythms, also known as arrhythmias. When your heart beats too quickly, too slow, or irregularly, it can affect your blood flow and lead to severe complications like stroke or heart failure. Cardioversions can help “reset” your heart rhythm to its regular pattern.
