Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate whether fish oil supplements may be beneficial in preventing the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after cardioversion

Atrial fibrillation is a heart condition which can sometimes be successfully treated by a cardioversion

Cardioversion involves resetting the heart back to normal with the use of electric current

There is a tendency for the atrial fibrillation to recur days weeks or even months after the cardioversion

Fish oil supplements may be of benefit to patients with heart problems Recent evidence suggests that fish oils may be beneficial to patients with rhythm disturbances
