Brief Summary

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

This is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized observational study of subjects 18 years and older undergoing RF ablation with drug refractory recurrent symptomatic paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (AF).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is purposed to measure "real world" acute procedural outcomes (procedural efficiency and acute safety) associated with use of the CARTO® 3 System and real time intracardiac ultrasound in a clinical setting in subjects with drug refractory recurrent symptomatic paroxysmal AF.
