According to whether the target lesion was located \u22645\u2009mm from the pericardium, patients were divided into the SC group and the non-sub-cardiac (NSC) group. In the SC group, AA was not employed during the ablation procedure.

There was no significant difference in technical success rates (100% vs 100%), technique efficiency rates (100% vs 95.7%), LTP rates (2.63% vs 0%,), and major complication rates (2.63% vs 7.32%) between the SC group and the NSC group (P\u2009&amp;gt;\u2009.05).
