Structured PICO

What are the body size-independent reference intervals for echocardiographic measurements of left heart size and function in healthy dogs?

P
Population
122 healthy dogs
I
Intervention
Echocardiographic quantitation of left heart size and function
O
Outcome
Body size-independent reference intervals (RIs) for linear, area, and volume measurements of LA and LV size and functionsurrogate

This study provides body size-independent reference intervals for echocardiographic measurements of left heart size and function in healthy dogs for veterinary clinical use.

Abstract

Body size-independent RIs for several linear, area, and volume measurements of LA and LV size and function were generated prospectively from a large and diverse reference population and are available for clinical use.
