Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias in 106 Cats: Associated Structural Cardiac Disorders

Abstract: Background: Ventricular tachyarrhythmias occur in association with cardiac and extracardiac disorders in many species of animals, but information identifying concurrent disorders in cats with such arrhythmias is scarce.Methods: We investigated coexisting diseases by retrospectively evaluating medical records of cats with ventricular tachyarrhythmias seen during a 51-month period at 1 institution. For comparative purposes, we evaluated records of dogs with similar arrhythmias during the same time period. All ca… Show more

“…In the cases here, congestive signs, gallop rhythm with various degrees of systolic murmur were remarkable as well. Although ECGs are nonspecific in cats with DCM, sinus tachycardia, atrial or ventricular premature beats, ventricular tachyarrhythmias and atrial fibrillation could be present (5,6,7,8,13). In the first case with ECG, the findings were consistent with the reports previously described.…”

“…O eletrocardiograma (ECG) ainda é considerado um método pouco sensível em casos de cardiomiopatia hipertrófica, apesar de 30 a 70% de gatos diagnosticados com tal afecção apresentarem alguma alteração neste exame (FERASIN et al, 2003;JAEGER, 2008). É utilizado para avaliar o ritmo e a condução cardíaca (HARVEY et al, 2005;JAEGER, 2008), sendo importante para pacientes com arritmias ou episódios de fraqueza ou síncope (KITTLESON, 2009b). As alterações, quando observadas, são inespecíficas e o exame, ainda que providencie informações, não é capaz de classificar ou confirmar a existência de doenças cardíacas em gatos domésticos (CÔTÉ et al, 2011).…”

“…Em consequência da disfunção diastólica e dos fluxos regurgitantes, o átrio aumenta de tamanho, às vezes de forma acentuada, mas o volume ventricular esquerdo permanece normal ou diminuído (GUNDLER;TIDHOLM;HÄGGSTRÖM, 2008;SCHÖBER et al, 2007;LINNEY et al, 2014), justificando os resultados encontrados. (HARVEY et al, 2005;JAEGER, 2008). Não foram observadas diferenças quanto à ocorrência de ritmo sinusal ou taquicardia sinusal nos diferentes grupos.…”
