Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
AF free off all Class I and III Anti Arrhythmic Drugs (AADs).
The primary efficacy data will be an evaluation of the number of subjects free from AF and free of all Class I and III Anti Arrhythmic Drugs (AADs) from 3 months through 12 months post procedure.
12 months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
AF free regardless of the Class I and III AADs status
12 months
Study Arms (1)
Numeris-AF Guided Coagulation System
OTHERInterventions
Combined epicardial / endocardial procedure using the Numeris®-AF Guided Coagulation System with VisiTrax® epicardially and the Biosense Webster ThermoCool Catheter in conjunction with the Carto Navigation System endocardially.
