- Abstract:
- ... In human medicine, non-contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is routinely used to assess the cardiovascular system. In this study, using non-contrast CMRI, we provide a thorough description of the normal appearance of the intrathoracic cardiovascular structures in one healthy cat using a magnet operating at a field of 1.5-Tesla. The CMRI protocol was based on the use of fast spin-echo ...

- Abstract:

We hypothesized that real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE) was superior to two-dimensional echocardiography for the estimation of left atrial volume (LAV), using electrocardiographic (ECG)-gated multidetector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) as a volumetric gold standard. The aim was to compare maximum LAV (LAVmax) and minimum LAV (LAVmin) measured by biplane area-length met ...

- Abstract:
- ... Canine pulmonary hypertension (PH) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Tadalafil, a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor used commonly in humans with PH, has not been evaluated in a clinical trial in dogs with naturally occurring PH. Our objectives were to compare the efficacy of tadalafil and sildenafil on PH assessed by peak tricuspid regurgitant flow velocity, estimated systolic pulmonary ...

- Abstract:
- ... Non-invasive diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) relies on estimation of pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) via Doppler echocardiographic measurement of tricuspid regurgitation pressure gradient (TRPG). The pulmonary vein-to-right pulmonary artery ratio (PV/PA) recently has been described for the detection of pulmonary venous congestion. Whether this variable could be used to detect the presen ...

To evaluate the frequency of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and cardiac death (CD) in Irish wolfhounds (IW) with subclinical atrial fibrillation (AF) and to compare cardiac and all-cause mortality to those of a contemporaneous control group of apparently healthy IW with sinus rhythm.Fifty-two IW with AF, but without echocardiographic evidence of DCM or other cardiac disease, and an age- and gender-m ...

- Abstract:
- ... Myocardial diseases are the most common acquired cardiac diseases in cats and may result in left atrial enlargement and congestive heart failure (CHF). Volume calculations have replaced linear measurements for chamber quantification in humans but are not commonly measured in cats. The aims of this retrospective study were to compare the left atrial (LA) size by two-dimensional linear measurements ...

- Abstract:

This report describes a rare case of an aorto-cardiac fistula in a six-year-old French Warmblood mare presented with atrial fibrillation, decreased performance, ventral oedema, bounding arterial pulsation and pathological jugular venous pulse. A 2.7-cm-diameter fistula connected the right aortic sinus of Valsalva to the right atrium. Atrial fibrillation was likely due to volume overload of the rig ...

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of a compounded sustained-release procainamide formulation in normal dogs.Six healthy, purpose-bred mixed-breed dogs participated in the study.In phase I, two dogs were administered oral procainamide (30 mg/kg), and plasma was obtained to determine plasma concentration ranges and duration. In phase II, six dogs were administer ...

- Abstract:
- ... Preexcitation alternans and orthodromic atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia were diagnosed in a 3-month-old Boxer. The images described here show how conventional electrocardiographic techniques (12-lead surface electrocardiography, 24-hour Holter monitoring, and ladder diagram) can be interpreted to gain detailed information on presence of canine atrioventricular accessory pathways and the ...

- Abstract:

A 9-month-old kitten with increased resting respiratory rate and exercise intolerance was diagnosed with a congenital partial atrioventricular septal defect causing pulmonary over circulation and presumed pulmonary hypertension based on echocardiogram. Invasive pressure measurements and contrast angiography confirmed this diagnosis. The cat underwent pulmonary artery banding under general anesthes ...
