Comparison of Wide Area Circular Ablation With Extra-wide Area Circular Ablation in Subjects With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation, a Randomized Study

Ablation of atrial fibrillation is an established method for treatment of subjects with
atrial fibrillation with goal of restoration of sinus rhythm. Among different methods, wide
area circular ablation (WACA) is shown to provide the same results with fewer complications.
This project will compare WACA with extra-wide area circular ablation (E-WACA) in subjects
who are considered for ablation of atrial fibrillation.


Inclusion Criteria:

- All subjects with symptomatic persistent atrial fibrillation who are scheduled for
clinically indicated ablation of AF.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Subjects younger than 18 year of age.

- Subjects who are pregnant.

- Subjects who are unable to provide consent.
