Background Congestive heart failure (CHF) in cats with left‐sided heart disease is
sometimes manifest as pleural effusion, in other cases as pulmonary edema. Hypothesis …

The aims of this study were to evaluate left atrial size in cats with acute left‐sided congestive
heart failure. We hypothesized that left atrial size as determined by thoracic radiography can …

Objectives: To evaluate population characteristics, clinical signs and simple
echocardiographic measurements of a general practice population of cats, in identifying …

Introduction Pulmonary hypertension (PH) caused by left-sided congestive heart failure (L-
CHF) is common in dogs and contributes to clinical signs and outcome. The aim of this study …

Introduction/objectives Myocardial diseases are the most common acquired cardiac
diseases in cats and may result in left atrial enlargement and congestive heart failure (CHF) …

Objectives The aim of the study was to determine whether cardiogenic pleural effusion in
cats is associated with a lower risk of arterial thromboembolism (ATE) compared with cats …

Background The clinical relevance of echocardiographic measurements of right heart size
and function in dogs with pulmonary hypertension (PH) is unknown. Objective To determine …

Introduction To determine whether dogs with atrial fibrillation (AF) are more likely to develop
right-sided manifestations of congestive heart failure (R-CHF) than dogs without AF. Animals …

Background: Left atrial (LA) enlargement (LAE) is a morphologic expression of the severity
and chronicity of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction, volume overload, and increased …

Sleeping and resting respiratory rates are commonly measured variables in patients with
cardiac disease. However, little information is available on these variables in healthy client …
