Sponsor's own description
Catheter ablation has emerged as an important treatment option for patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). Pulmonary vein antral isolation (PVI) is now considered the cornerstone technique of AF ablation and has shown promise in treating paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). However, there is no unique strategy for ablation of persistent AF (PeAF), whether PVI alone is sufficient to prevent patients from recurrence remains controversial. The PROMPT-AF study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized trial involving a blinded assessment of outcomes, which is designed to compare arrhythmia-free survival between PVI and an ablation strategy termed upgraded '2C3L' for ablation of PeAF.
