Electrocardiogram interpretation is important for identifying common and life-threatening arrhythmias in veterinary practice.
This review highlights the importance of ECG interpretation for identifying both life-threatening and common benign arrhythmias in veterinary practice.
This article describes the importance of electrocardiogram interpretation in relation to some of the more common arrhythmias seen in veterinary practice. It discusses and illustrates those arrhythmias that are life threatening, providing clear explanation as to why they are so dangerous. Other common arrhythmias are explored, which perhaps are less clinically significant, but are nevertheless, seen frequently.
