Cochlear implant surgery is an effective treatment for older patients with hearing loss who cannot achieve satisfactory audiologic outcomes with hearing aids. However, older people have an increased risk of heart disease and often take medications that affect heart rhythm. Herein, we report a case of an 80-year-old woman who underwent cardioversion at 50J after cochlear implant surgery. Electrical impedance before and after cardioversion showed only minor changes without abnormality, and the cochlear implant functioned well. We believe that the electronic circuits of the cochlear implant may have been relatively tolerant to the electrical shock from the external defibrillator. Typically, cardioversion should be avoided in cochlear implant recipients because it may damage the implant. If cardioversion cannot be avoided, we strongly recommend starting cardioversion at the lowest energy level (50 J) and removing the sound processor of the implant during the procedure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/01455613211001962","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,18]],"date-time":"2021-03-18T13:48:50Z","timestamp":1616075330000},"page":"NP229-NP231","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The Function of Cochlear Implant After Cardioversion in a Patient With Atrial Flutter: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"102","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3466-4820","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hong Chan","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery, Chonnam National University Hwasun Hospital, Chonnam National University Medical School, Hwasun, South Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chung Man","family":"Sung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery, Chonnam National University Hospital, Chonnam National University Medical School, Gwangju, South Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hyung Chae","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery, Chonnam National University Hospital, Chonnam National University Medical School, Gwangju, South Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hyong-Ho","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery, Chonnam National University Hospital, Chonnam National University Medical School, Gwangju, South Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-01455613211001962","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/019459989310800404"},{"key":"bibr2-01455613211001962","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000000920"},{"issue":"05","key":"bibr3-01455613211001962","first-page":"329","volume":"4","author":"Schwab B","year":"2015","journal-title":"Int J Otorhinolaryngol Head Neck Surg"},{"key":"bibr4-01455613211001962","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamaoto.2015.129"},{"key":"bibr5-01455613211001962","volume-title":"Synchronized Electrical Cardioversion.
