To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo for the maintenance of normal sinus rhythm after electrical, pharmacological or spontaneous conversion of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter (AF/AFL). To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo on AF/AFL-related symptoms. To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo on ventricular rate control in case of AF/AFL recurrence.
This is a double-blind, parallel arm, placebo-controlled, multicentre, multinational, phase III study. To be eligible, patients must be in normal sinus rhythm at randomisation and must have an ECG-documented history of recent AF/AFL reverted to normal sinus rhythm by electrical, pharmacological or spontaneous conversion

The primary endpoint of the study is the time from randomisation to first documented AF/AFL recurrence
- AF/AFL related symptoms collected at the time of ECG/TTEM recording,
- mean ventricular rate during AF/AFL at first recorded AF/AFL recurrence (12-lead ECG or TTEM)
- time from presumed study drug near steady state defined as D5 midnight to first documented AF/AFL recurrence as indicated by ECG/TTEM recording.
