You may qualify if

• Participant is ≥ 18 years of age, or older if specified by local law
• Participant has documented paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation not related to a reversible cause
• Participant has AF-related symptoms, and/or presence of CHF or LV dysfunction
• Participant has a CHADSVASc>=3 in women and >=2 in men
• There is appropriate rationale to seek a non-pharmacologic alternative to long-term oral anticoagulation for thromboembolic protection
• Participant is willing and capable of providing informed consent
• Participant is willing and capable of participating in all testing associated with this clinical investigation at an approved clinical investigational center

You can't join if

• Participant has had prior AF ablation (including surgical ablation)
• Participant has had prior left atrial appendage occlusion or closure

• Participant has had recent MI, CVA, or cardiac surgery in preceding 90 days
• Participant has an inability to comply with outpatient follow-up, or cognitive impairment that precludes understanding of procedure risks and benefits
• Participant has an active systemic infection
• Participant has a mechanical heart valve through which the catheter must pass, or severe mitral stenosis
• Participant has a vena cava embolic protection filter devices and/or known femoral thrombus who require catheter insertion from the femoral approach
• Participant had congenital heart disease where the underlying abnormality increases the risk of ablation (e.g. severe rotational anomalies of the heart or great vessels)
• Participant is woman of childbearing potential who is pregnant, lactating, not using a reliable form of contraception, or who is planning to become pregnant during the anticipated study period
• Participant has longstanding persistent AF ongoing for greater than 10 years
• Participant has Left atrial appendage anatomy unsuitable for LAAO device
• Participant has an LA diameter >6 cm
