REVERT Trial for Modified Valsalva

[MonkeyArrow]

Just read this abstract and watched the accompanying supplementary video for the REVERT trial. They randomized 433 patients to either standard valsalva or modified valsalva (they used blowing into a closed system, followed by supine positioning and passive leg raise). They results showed a significant increase in rhythm conversion from 17% with standard to 43% in modified. Very interesting and applicable to the field.
