Hello There
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that if cardioversion isn't possible at the moment then they can give him LMWH to minimise the chances of clot formation. Rest your treating cardiologist can explain about his condition better.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards
