Title: Cardiac arrhythmias associated with multiple trauma in dogs. Author: Macintire DK, Snider TG. Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1984 Mar 01; 184(5):541-5. PubMed ID: 6200467. Abstract: Premature ventricular contractions and ventricular tachycardia were detected in 10 dogs 1 to 48 hours after trauma. All dogs were treated aggressively if the arrhythmias became severe. One dog died, 8 were discharged with stable cardiac rhythm, and 1 was euthanatized. Necropsy revealed gross and microscopic lesions of acute myocardial necrosis, probably of ischemic origin. Cardiac arrhythmias were associated with thoracic trauma, neurologic injury, severe shock, and/or extensive tissue trauma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
