The use of warfarin anticoagulation for several weeks before cardioversion results in a 90% reduction in the incidence of cardioversion-related thromboembolism. The mechanism of this benefit, however, is unknown; it has been widely attributed to organization and adherence of atrial thrombi, a finding observed among pathological studies of patients with rheumatic valvular disease.
