Through multiple follow-ups at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months post-procedure, the study will compare the two treatment regimens in terms of blood concentrations of amiodarone and its metabolites, efficacy (short-term recurrence \\[SR\\], long-term recurrence \\[LR\\], and patient quality of life), and safety (adverse drug reactions). Subgroup analyses will also be conducted to explore potential differences in drug treatment effects among populations with varying risk factors. This study aims to provide valuable clinical data for post-ablation management of atrial fibrillation, contributing to the development of optimized treatment strategies to enhance therapeutic outcomes and improve patient quality of life.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Participants aged ≥18 years;\n* First-time catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (defined as any - previous episode lasting ≥7 days);\n* Symptomatic atrial fibrillation patients who have failed or are intolerant to at least one class I or III antiarrhythmic drug;\n* Participants who are able to understand the purpose of the study, voluntarily agree to participate, and provide written informed consent.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Those unwilling or unsuitable to restart or continue antiarrhythmic drug therapy;\n* Life expectancy \\< 12 months;\n* Severe liver or kidney dysfunction;\n* Allergy to amiodarone components;\n* Pregnant or breastfeeding women;\n* Contraindications to amiodarone (e.g., blood pressure \\< 90/60 mmHg; bradycardia \\< 55 bpm, second- or third-degree AV block, or sick sinus syndrome);\n* Thyroid disorders, such as hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06742866', 'briefTitle': 'Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous + Oral Vs.
