      Cardioversion If you have a fast or irregular heartbeat, your doctor may recommend cardioversion to restore your heart’s normal rhythm. This procedure is usually scheduled in advance, but if your symptoms are severe you may have it right away. Unlike most other interventional cardiology procedures, cardioversion does not use a catheter. Instead, it uses soft pads with electrodes to deliver one or more low-energy electrical shocks to the outside of your chest. The electric current travels to your heart to bring it back into normal rhythm. In most cases you will be asleep during the procedure and will not feel pain. To learn more about cardioversion for heart arrhythmias, visit the American Heart Association at www.heart.org. Pacemaker These small devices send electrical signals to your heart to make it beat at a steady rate. You may get a pacemaker if your heart beats too slowly, or with an irregular rhythm. Pacemakers are implanted under the skin near your collarbone, with a wire extending to your heart. The surgery to implant this device takes about an hour, and may require an overnight hospital stay to make sure the device is working correctly. After you get your pacemaker, you will return regularly to the Cardiac Device Clinic at the Montana Heart Center to have it checked. We follow up with our patients long term to ensure that they are doing well and their devices are functioning properly. Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) Ventricular fibrillation is a serious arrhythmia that can reduce the heart’s pumping ability so much that it puts your life in danger. If you are at risk for this condition you may need an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, or ICD. These small, battery-powered devices track your heart rate. If your ICD detects a serious arrhythmia, it will deliver an electric shock to restore you normal heartbeat. ICDs today also act as pacemakers. ICDs are implanted under skin of your chest or abdomen, or below your collarbone. Wires connect the device to your heart. Most people stay in the hospital at least overnight to make sure their ICD is functioning correction. After you get your ICD, you will return regularly to the Cardiac Device Clinic at the Montana Heart Center to have it checked. We follow up with our patients long term to ensure that they are doing well and their devices are functioning properly. Many arrhythmias, especially an abnormally fast heartbeat, respond to medications. Some help control the irregular heartbeat, and others minimize the risk for blood clots that can occur with certain arrhythmias. Medication can improve cardiac arrhythmias, but they don’t cure the underlying problem. These medications are usually taken long term. If your doctor prescribes one for you, be sure to take it exactly as prescribed.
