Conditions
Detailed Description
The Cryo Global Registry is a prospective, global, multi-center, observational post-market registry (PMR).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and describe clinical performance and safety data in a broad patient population treated with a commercially available Arctic Front™ Family of Cardiac Cryoablation Catheters (hereafter referred to as "Arctic Front™ Cardiac Cryoablation Catheter System").
The cryoballoon ablation(CBA) procedure will be performed according to routine hospital practice.
The study is expected to have a 24 month enrollment period.
The follow up period is intended to align with standard practice and subjects will be followed for a minimum of 12 months post-procedure.
