Abstract
Exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) is a versatile diagnostic tool that has been integrated into the standard clinical assessment of adult patients with coronary artery disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and pulmonary hypertension. Experience with ESE in children with these disorders is more limited. Given the potential value of this technology is significant, its role in the clinical diagnosis and management of pediatric patients continues to evolve. Since 2006, Boston Children’s Hospital has been performing stress echocardiography in children for both ischemia and assessment of hemodynamics of exercise.
