Conforming to the shape
of your
heart, the network delivers its own set
of electrical pulses, resetting the normal
rhythm.
Patients underwent an initial electrocardiogram (EKG), a test that shows the
electrical activity
of the
heart, and in eight
of the patients, the EKG suggested heartbeat rate or
rhythm concerns.
This slowing down
of electrical activity put these
hearts at greater risk
of dangerous abnormal
heart rhythms, such as atrial fibrillation.
• Electrocardiography (ECG)-- a test that produces a tracing
of the cardiac
rhythm and allows evaluation
of the
electrical activity
of the
heart.
Our hospital utilizes a wide variety
of state
of the art equipment to monitor vitals including
electrical heart rhythm (EKG), blood pressure, oxygenation ability (Pulse Oximetry), and ventilation ability (endo - tidal CO2).
An electrocardiogram (ECG) measures the
electrical activity
of the
heart and allows accurate determination
of both
heart rate and
rhythm.
An ECG measures the
electrical activity and
rhythm of your pet's
heart.
Auscultation can also detect certain kinds
of changes to the
rhythm of the
heart that may indicate an
electrical problem.
ECGs record the
electrical activity
of the
heart and can measure and diagnose abnormal
rhythms of the
heart and identify a damaged
heart.
Blood testing, radiographs (X-rays), an ECG (
electrical evaluation
of heart rate and
rhythm), and possibly other tests (ultrasound
of heart or abdominal organs) should be done in an appropriate pre-anesthetic period.
Your veterinarian may also ask to perform an ultrasound
of the
heart called an echocardiogram, or an electrocardiogram (ECG), which will show the
electrical conduction in the
heart to screen for any arrhythmiasA condition in which the
heart beats with an irregular or abnormal
rhythm..
To further assess
heart disease, an EKG (which is a test that monitors
electrical signals from your dog's
heart and shows how fast it is beating as well as the type
of rhythm of the
heart) may be performed.
• Electrocardiography (ECG)-- The
electrical activity
of the
heart is evaluated from 6 - 12 different angles to determine whether an arrhythmia (irregularity
of the
heart's
rhythm) exists, and how benign or malignant the arrhythmia is.
An electrocardiogram (or EKG) recording can be used to examine the
electrical currents in the
heart muscles, and may reveal any abnormalities in cardiac
electrical conduction (which underlies the
heart's ability to contract / beat), and can also help your veterinarian to determine the origin
of the abnormal
heart rhythms, if they are present.
An ECG is a readout
of the
electrical activity
of the animal's
heart and gives our cardiologist information on your pet's
heart rate,
heart rhythm and potential irregularities called arrhythmias.
Normal animals typically have a nice, regular
heart rhythm when which indicates normal coordination
of electrical activity and subsequent pumping
of the atria and ventricles.
A specialist examined her and determined Cindy has a condition called Atrioventricular block (AV block) which can affect the
electrical impulses /
rhythm of her
heart.
An electrocardiogram (ECG) depicts the pattern
of electrical activity in the
heart and any irregularities in the
heart's
rhythm (arrhythmias).
