Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the FARAFLEX™ Mapping and pulsed field ablation (PFA) System can safely and effectively treat symptomatic, drug-refractory Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) and Persistent atrial fibrillation (PersAF). The main question it aims to answer is: Is the FARAFLEX Mapping and PFA System a safe and effective treatment for patients? Participants will undergo an ablation procedure using the FARAFLEX Mapping and PFA System.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Proportion of Treatment Subjects and Attempt Subjects with device- or procedure-related defined Composite Serious Adverse Events, assessed through Day 60 following the index procedure.
Occurrence of defined Composite Serious Adverse Events after the procedure through Day 60.
After the index procedure, rescheduled index procedure, or first re-ablation performed with the FARAFLEX (Day 0) through Day 60
The primary effectiveness endpoint (PEE) is the proportion of Treatment Subjects with Treatment Success through the Day 365 Assessment.
Acute Procedural Success defined as Pulmonary Vein (PV) Isolation and Chronic Success. Chronic Success is defined as freedom from the following after the Blanking Period (60 days): * Arrhythmia: Occurrence of any Detectable Atrial Fibrillation (AF), Atrial Flutter (AFL), or Atrial Tachycardia (AT) * Re-ablation: Any re-ablation for Atrial Fibrillation (AF), Atrial Flutter (AFL), or Atrial Tachycardia (AT) * Cardioversion: Any electrical cardioversion for Atrial Fibrillation (AF), Atrial Flutter (AFL), or Atrial Tachycardia (AT) * Antiarrhythmic Drug (AAD) Use: dose increase from the historic maximum ineffective dose (prior to the ablation procedure) or initiation of a new AAD.
Day 0 through the Day 365 Assessment
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Atrial Arrhythmia Burden Success Endpoint
Post-blanking period (Day 60) through 6 months (Day 180)
Cavo-Tricuspid Isthmus (CTI) Ablation - Acute Procedural Endpoint
Index Ablation Procedure
Study Arms (1)
FARAFLEX Mapping and Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System
EXPERIMENTALParticipants undergo a catheter procedure using the FARAFLEX Mapping and Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System to treat atrial fibrillation. The catheter is used to map the heart's electrical signals and deliver pulsed field ablation therapy.
Interventions
Catheter used to perform cardiac electrophysiological mapping and deliver cardiac tissue ablation therapy for the treatment of Atrial Fibrillation.
