Algorithm performance for each of the seven ablation sites in the entire cohort of patients compared to the subgroup of children < 18 years old. Particularly good results were achieved with our EASY-WPW algorithm in the presence of a right-sided antero- or posteroseptal AP. TV, tricuspid valve; MV, mitral valve; PPV, positive predictive value; NPV, negative predictive value; All, all patients; < 18, subgroup of children < 18 years old.
