Electrocardiographic Evaluation in Anemic Dogs with Blood Parasitosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study was conducted on dogs presented to Medicine OPD of Small Animal Clinics of the Department of Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Ludhiana. In the present study ECG was done in 23 dogs suffering from haemolytic anaemia (12 dogs with Ehrlichia canis and 11 with Babesia spp.) Among the cardiac rhythms assessed by electrocardiography, sinus arrhythmia occurred most frequently (82.61%). Sinus tachycardia was seen in 20 (86.96%) dogs in the present study. Abnormalities in the ST-segment (ST depression and elevation) were found in 5 (21.74%) anemic dogs and slurring of ST segment in 3 dogs.
