简要总结
The purpose of the current study is to assess differences regarding the acute efficacy, safety, procedural duration, radiation exposure and long-term success of the novel AFA-Pro in combination of an individualized shortened ablation protocol containing a reduced freezing time to the standard approach of a fixed ablation protocol in patients with symptomatic PAF.

- •Uncontrolled bleeding, diathesis, coagulopathy or pro-coagulant state

结局指标
主要结局
Freedom from documented atrial tachyarrhythmia (every documented episode of atrial tachyarrhythmia lasting >/=30 seconds will be count as recurrence.
时间窗: Month 12
The primary endpoint of the current study is freedom from documented atrial tachyarrhythmia (\>/=30 seconds) documented by ECG 4-12 months after PVI off antiarrhythmic drugs. Atrial tachyarrhythmias comprise AF as well as atrial tachycardia and atrial flutter. Holter-ECGs as well as 12-lead ECGs will be conducted. Every epsiode of documented atrial tachyarrhythmia (\>/=30 seconds)outside the blanking period will count as "recurrence".
次要结局

- Number of freeze-cycles to achive pulmonary vein isolation.(Day 0)
- Procedure duration(Intraoperative)
- Duration of freeze-cycles to achive pulmonary vein isolation(Day 0)
- Radiation exposure duration(Day 0)
- Periprocedural complications(Day 0)
