Brief Summary: Both segmental ostial and circumferential extra-ostial pulmonary vein PV isolation have been proven effective in the treatment of atrial fibrillation

In this study patients with symptomatic paroxystic or persistent AF were randomised to one of the above mentioned ablation methods The primary endpoints were recurrent AF and recurrence of left atrium-PV conduction
Detailed Description: Both segmental ostial and circumferential extra-ostial pulmonary vein PV isolation have been proven effective in the treatment of atrial fibrillation

In this study with symptomativ paroxystic or persistent AF were randomised to one of the above mentioned ablation methods Each patient was allowed a maximum of two ablation procedures Holter monitoring for 14-days periods will be performed at 3 months after ablation The patiens are seen at out-patient visits at 1 3 6 9 and 12 months after the ablation procedure

Primary endpoints were recurrent AF and recurrence of left atrium-PV conduction

Secondary endpoints were

safety
resumption of LA-PV conduction
alterations in neurohormones
socio-economics aspectscost effectiveness
changes in inflammatory markers
quality of life
alterations in signal averaged P wawe signals
evaluation of the predictive value of these variables to predict recurrence of AF
