This PMCF study "VOLTAIRE-AF" will allow to observe acute and long-term safety and performance outcomes of the last generation of Volta Medical AI software (Volta AF-Xplorer II) during AF ablation using next-generation mapping and ablation technologies over a 24-month follow-up and in "real life"clinical practice, without any imposed clinical workflow.
All patients enrolled are treated for atrial fibrillation/tachycardia via a catheter ablation procedure using the last generation of Volta Medical AI software (Volta AF-Xplorer II) during the mapping phase to identify areas of interest specific to the patient. The ablation approach is free and chosen by the operator according to standard practice. Intraoperative and postoperative follow-up will be performed as in routine clinical practice during AF ablation procedures: hospitalization for ablation procedure and standard postoperative quarterly visits (at 3 months, at 6 months and/or 9 months as per the study investigator's Standard Of Care) then annual visits up to 24 months post-ablation. Adverse Events, recurrences of atrial arrhythmia, Heart Failure related symptom score ("NYHA") and AF related symptoms (EHRA score) are collected from the patient's enrollment until the patient's study termination. A quality-of-life questionnaire related to general health (EQ-5D-3L) is collected during the preoperative visit and at least during annual follow-up visits. The patient's study-termination corresponds to the last annual visit at 24 months post-ablation index.

Enrollment
150
All patients enrolled are treated for their atrial fibrillation/tachycardia via a catheter ablation procedure using the last generation of Volta Medical AI software (Volta AF-Xplorer II, used in accordance with its approved indication as per of its IFU) during the mapping phase to identify areas of interest specific to the patient. The ablation approach is free and chosen by the operator according to his standard practice. The two main phases of the ablation procedure are: * 3D mapping of the atria and location of areas of interest; * Catheter ablation at the operator's discretion.

An Atrial Arrhythmia episode (AF/AFL/AT ≥ 30s) will be determined to be clinically significant if it results in an unexpected treatment change (e.g. new anti-arrhythmic drug or higher dose of AAD, repeat ablation procedure, DC cardioversion), or if it is accompanied by worsening of symptoms related to AF, considering a standard 3-month blanking period.
