Internal Electric Reset Of Heart Rhythm

Alabama rates for HCPCS 92961

An abnormal heart rhythm is converted back to normal by delivering a carefully timed electrical shock through catheters placed inside the heart rather than through pads on the chest. Because the energy is delivered right at the heart, much less is needed. The patient is sedated for the procedure.
