    Postoperative AFL/AT rate
    Occurrence of AFL/AT is defined as presence of documented AFL/AT episodes of 30 seconds or longer duration
    Incidence of complications
    including death, atrio-esophageal fistula, cardiac tamponade/perforation, myocardial infarction, stroke/cerebrovascular accident, thromboembolism, diaphragmatic paralysis, pneumothorax, pleural effusion, heart block, pulmonary vein stenosis, pulmonary edema, left atrial thrombus, pericarditis and major vascular access complication or bleeding

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    This is a single-arm clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of left atrial isolation achieved by catheter ablation in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation with severe atrial fibrosis.
    Detailed Description
    This is a single-arm clinical trial. Patients with persistent atrial fibrillation with severe atrial fibrosis are enrolled as subjects to conduct left atrial isolation by catheter ablation. Postoperative recurrence rate and other indicators are analyzed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of left atrial isolation achieved by catheter ablation in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation with severe atrial fibrosis.
