Why the study?
Does a single dose of pimobendan or atenolol alter echocardiographic indices of right ventricular systolic function in healthy dogs?
Does a single dose of pimobendan or atenolol alter echocardiographic indices of right ventricular systolic function in healthy dogs?
Echocardiographic indices such as TAPSE, FAC, S', and strain can reliably track acute, drug-induced changes in right ventricular systolic function in healthy dogs.

May inform RV assessment in healthy dogs; leaves open effects and clinical relevance in diseased animals.
