Pacing techniques in assessing cardiac function in the horse

M W O'Callaghan

    Equine Veterinary Journal
    |October 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary

    Transitory cardiac arrhythmias in horses can be diagnosed using new electro-stimulation techniques. While promising for analyzing heart electrical function, further evaluation is needed for reliable diagnosis of equine arrhythmias.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Cardiology
    • Equine Electrophysiology

    Background:

    • Transitory cardiac arrhythmias pose diagnostic challenges in equidae.
    • Referral to specialist institutions is common for suspect cases requiring a second opinion.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To discuss the problem of transitory cardiac arrhythmias in equidae.
    • To review recently developed electro-stimulation techniques for uncovering arrhythmias.
    • To evaluate the potential of these techniques in analyzing cardiac electrical function.

    Main Methods:

    • Brief description of novel electro-stimulation techniques.
    • Review of their application in analyzing cardiac electrical function under various conditions.

    Main Results:

    • Electro-stimulation techniques show potential for uncovering arrhythmias in equidae.
    • These methods may aid in the objective analysis of cardiac electric parameters.

    Conclusions:

    • Caution is advised against the premature evaluation of electro-stimulation techniques for diagnosing equine arrhythmias.
    • There is optimism regarding the future potential of electro-stimulation in objective cardiac electrical analysis.
