Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to compare two types of treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) that are designed to treat the symptoms of atrial fibrillation. The treatments being compared are:

* A single catheter ablation procedure with the investigational EAS, a visually-guided, light-energy catheter
* Standard drug therapy (antiarrhythmic drugs)
