Detailed Description

The STOP AF First Post Approval Study (PAS) is a sub-study to the Cryo Global Registry. The STOP AF First PAS is a prospective, global, multi-center, observational trial. The purpose of the study is to describe long-term clinical performance and safety data in the recurrent symptomatic paroxysmal AF population treated with Arctic Front™ and Freezor™ MAX Families of cardiac cryoablation catheters (hereafter referred to as Arctic Front™ Cardiac Cryoablation Catheter System) as an alternative to antiarrhythmic drug therapy as an initial rhythm control strategy. This PAS is a condition of the pre-market approval order (P100010/S110) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
