Study Arms (2)
Very high-power short-duration
ACTIVE COMPARATORA QDOT® 3.5-mm open-irrigated contact force-sensing RF ablation catheter (Biosense Webster, Inc., Irvine, CA, USA) will be used. In this group vHPSD (90W) will be performed. This power settings will be used for all ablation points.
High-power short-duration
ACTIVE COMPARATORA QDOT® 3.5-mm open-irrigated contact force-sensing RF ablation catheter (Biosense Webster, Inc., Irvine, CA, USA) will be used. Ablation of the anterior aspect of the pulmonary veins will be performed with high-power short-duration (50 W) with target ablation index =550. Ablation of the posterior wall of the pulmonary veins will be performed with vHPSD (90W).
Interventions
Atrial fibrillation radiofrequency ablation of the anterior wall with 50W (HPSD). Ablation of the posterior wall with 90 W (vHPSD)

- Patient scheduled for their first AF ablation procedure
- Written informed consent
- Paroxysmal or persistent AF
- Age \> 18
You may not qualify if:
