Conventional AF ablation is defined as pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and any additional ablation for AF according to the standard routine of the center.

Data items will be collected, if available, consistent and applicable with routine and standard clinical care at each participating site.

Prospective and retrospective enrollment possible

Inclusion Criteria:

• reported incidence of at least 2 documented episodes of symptomatic AF (paroxysmal, persistent or long standing persistent) during the 3 months preceding the initial AF ablation
• attempt of at least one Class I or III anti-arrhythmia drug with failure defined as recurrence of symptomatic AF or adverse drug effect resulting in stopping medication

Exclusion Criteria:

• women who are pregnant

As this is a registry only data of patients will be included who have been treated according to the current AF guidelines and the daily routine of the center.

Each participating site will enroll 10 consecutive conventional AF patients who are treated according to the standard routine of the center. Patients eligible should be in accordance with the AF Guidelines.
