Cardiac extra sounds in the dog

The oculorespiratory cardiac reflex in the dog.

Intraorbital and intracranial electrical stimulation as compared with manual eye pressure indicates that in the dog the afferent pathway for the oculorespiratory cardiac reflex is carried by the ophthalmic division of the fifth cranial nerve. The effects on cardiac and respiratory arrythmia produced by using intravenous atropine have demonstrated that, although reflex bradycardia can be abolish...

Cardiac Output in Pneumonia in the Dog.

Extra-alveolar vessels and oedema development in excised dog lungs.

The contribution of pulmonary extra-alveolar vessels toward edema development was investigated in isolated dog lungs. In 27 lungs the intraalveolar vessels were shut by alveolar pressure exceeding both arterial and venous pressures. Fluid transudation from extra-alveolar vessels into the interstitial space was estimated both by lung weight gain and serial biopsies examined histologically. Inter...

Frequency of Congenital Heart Disease in Neonates with Extra Cardiac Anomalies

Background Diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) in neonates with extra cardiac anomalies is effective in their clinical management and surgical outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the frequency of CHD in neonates with extra cardiac anomalies admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Material...

Coronary to extra-cardiac anastomosis

We are reporting a rare case of a patient with the right coronary artery giving a large collateral vessel to an intercostal artery in a patient with repaired coarctation of aorta. A 64 year-old man with coarctation of the aorta, surgically repaired at 18 years of age, presented with dyspnea. A trans-esophageal echocardiogram revealed a severely stenotic bicuspid aortic valve.
