Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to perform a prospective, randomised study investigating the safety and efficacy of cryoballoon catheter ablation compared with radiofrequency ablation(contact force), in the treatment of persistent AF.

Detailed Description

The hypotheses for this study is that cryothermal energy is as effective and safe as using radiofrequency energy in the treatment of persistent AF and is associated with a better long term outcome.
