We conducted an international, open-label, randomized, blinded-outcome-assessment trial involving 1284 patients who had undergone successful catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation at least 1 year ...

In patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation that has not responded to medication, catheter ablation is more effective than antiarrhythmic drug therapy for maintaining sinus rhythm.
