Fast Fourier transforms (FFT) were performed on atrial electrograms recorded from 13 sites in the LA and RA.

Stepwise ablation consisting of circumferential pulmonary vein isolation and a linear ablation set of mitral isthmus and roof significantly reduced the DF within the coronary sinus (CS) (5.93 \u00b1 0.98\u00a0Hz vs. 5.09 \u00b1 0.72\u00a0Hz, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; .05) and the LA posterior wall (LApos) (6.26 \u00b1 0.92\u00a0Hz vs. 5.43 \u00b1 0.98\u00a0Hz, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; .01). LAAEI preferentially further decreased the DF at the LApos (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; .01), but not at the CS.
