decide which test(s) are necessary for your
child, (ECG,
Echo, Exercise
Test, and Holter or Event Monitor).
Some children may also have a chest X-Ray, and/or blood test. You
may be with your child during all the tests.
After all the tests
are completed, the Cardiologist will talk to you about the test results,
and answer any questions you may have about the findings. You should
feel free to ask ANY questions that you may have.

about your child's heart. If
