May aid small animal clinicians in arrhythmia management; leaves open need for prospective validation of treatment principles.
The detection of an arrhythmia during routine cardiac auscultation is usually a significant finding that warrants further investigation. In this article, techniques for recording and interpreting electrocardiograms are discussed, along with a review of some common arrhythmias encountered in small animal practice. General principles regarding treatment of arrhythmias in veterinary patients are also considered.
