Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
We propose a prospective, randomized, controlled study to determine the role of pulmonary vein isolation by bipolar ablation in the prevention or reduction of postoperative AF. The block- randomization plan will be used to maintain balance of the study and control arms throughout the study.
