Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety between pulmonary vein isolation PVI alone versus PVI with left atrial LA posterior wall isolation PWI using pulsed-field ablation PFA in the treatment of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation PAF
Detailed Description: This is an investigator-initiated prospective randomized multi-center Investigational Device Exemption IDE study Subjects undergoing first-time ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation will be randomized to receive either pulmonary vein isolation PVI alone or PVI combined with posterior wall isolation PWI using pulsed field ablation PFA with the FARAWAVE PFA catheter

Following the index procedure all participants will enter a 3-month blanking period during which they will be closely monitored After this period anti-arrhythmic drug AAD therapy will be discontinued for all patients Throughout the entire study patients will be monitored using an implantable loop recorder ILR to assess the primary outcome of efficacy

The study includes a 12-month follow-up period and the primary objective is to assess and compare the efficacy defined as an improvement in freedom from all-atrial arrhythmias and safety defined as the occurrence of all procedure-related complications
