Brief Intro

Dr. Christine Walsh, is a leading expert in pediatric abnormal heart rhythms, syncope (fainting), chest pain and children's heart disease. A founding member and Co-Director of The Montefiore/Einstein Center for CardioGenetics, Dr. Walsh helps evaluate, genetically screen and treat families dealing with the tragedy of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) or Sudden Unexpected Death Syndrome (SUDS). "The sudden unexpected death of an infant, child or adolescent is always a tragedy, made more so because, in most cases, no medical reason or cause is identified," says Dr. Walsh. "After burying a child, grieving parents are left to wonder whether one or more of their surviving children are destined to meet the same fate. By offering early diagnoses and prompt treatment of at-risk members, and by offering counseling, education and emotional support, our Center is helping these families by giving them back control over their lives." Director of CHAM's Outpatient Pediatric Dysrhythmia Center, Dr. Walsh performs exacting noninvasive electrophysiological studies-including exercise stress testing, Holter monitoring, trans-telephonic monitoring and tilt table testing-that reveal important information about your child's heart rhythms an
