The EASY-WPW algorithm is presented as a novel tool for localizing manifest accessory pathways, which are implicated in conditions like Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Developed for ease of use and reliability, the algorithm is assessed for its accuracy in identifying the precise location of these pathways in both children and adults. The research compares its performance against established methods such as the Pambrun and Arruda algorithms, highlighting its advantages in pre-procedural planning and patient education.
