Electrocardiography of the dog and cat (2nd edition) promises to give the beginning student or the specialist both the practical approach to electrocardiographic diagnosis and the depth of understanding that promotes genuine learning in a subject area that has intrigued clinicians for more than a century. The combined and varied experiences of the authors give texture to the review of the literature, and the approach to electrocardiogram interpretation in the dog and cat. Key features: • 14 detailed chapters emphasize important key points in the assessment of the electrocardiogram, including vectors of depolarization and repolarization, relationship of cardiac structure to electrophysiology, detailed steps for electrocardiographic interpretation, hemodynamic consequences of rhythm disorders, new understanding of supraventricular arrhythmias, etiologies of ventricular arrhythmias, parameters to assess risk and need for treatment, and description of cardiovascular reflexes. • More than 300 beautiful illustrations and electrocardiograms to stimulate visual learning coupled with easy to consult boxes of key points for the rapid diagnosis on a day-to-day basis. • At the end of the book, to illustrate the step-by-step approach to the electrocardiogram, additional tracings with an accompanying interpretation give the reader the assurance of accomplishment from reading this book. • This book is a must-have reference for those learning the basics of electrocardiography and those who face the challenge of interpreting the most complex arrhythmias in veterinary medicine.
