Which heart conditions are due to DECREASED IN DIASTOLE?
Aortic stenosis, HCM
Want to treat with BETA-BLOCKERS
Which heart condition is due to DECREASED IN SYSTOLE?
DCM
T/F. Need to cough suppressant in chronic bronchitis and feline asthma.
False. NO COUGH SUPPRESSANT > They both produce mucus.

Ventilation required in which two respiratory conditions?
Non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, resp. distress.
Chest tube/drain, thoracocentesis for which two respiratory conditions?
Pyothorax, pneumothorax.
Middle right affected in which respiratory conditions?
Bacteria pneumonia, feline asthma.
Left caudal lobe is affected by which respiratory conditions?
Cat lungworm, pulmonary neoplasia, bact. pneumonia.
Surgery is required for which respiratory conditions?
Collapsing trachea, pulmonary neoplasia, cryptococcosis, pneumothorax, pleural effusion.
Which infectious organisms are difficult to culture?
Helicobacter, Lepto (takes a long time).
Which infectious organisms cross CNS?
Brucellosis, Lyme, Lepto
Which infectious organism is difficult for PCR and microscopic exam?
Lyme
L. Shift neutrophilia is seen in which respiratory conditions?
Kennel cough, Parenchymal diseases, Bact. Pneumonia, Blastomycosis, Coccidiomycosis, +/- Histoplasmosis
Vaccines are available for which respiratory conditions?
Kennel cough, Canine influenza, Lepto, Lyme
Dry harsh cough is seen in which respiratory conditions?
Blastomycosis, Coccidiomycosis, kennel cough, canine influenza
Fever in which resp. conditions?
Canine influenza, blastomycosis, coccidiomycosis.
Which heart conditions produce cough?
MMAVD and HW
Which resp. conditions induce coughing upon tracheal palpation?
Kennel Cough, Canine Influenza virus, tracheal collapse, Eosinophilic Bronchoneumopathy
Bronchodilators are used in which resp. conditions?
Bronchitis.
Can also reduce dose of steroids (glucocorticoids).
T/F. Mucous production usually in bronchitic conditions of respiratory system.
True (DO NOT GIVE COUGH SUPPRESSANTS!)
Which fungal agent is difficult to culture?
Coccidia
Genes associated with which heart conditions?
Aortic stenosis (PICALM) DCM (Dobes: PDK4) HCM (Main Coon and Ragdoll: MyBPC3)
Which congenital heart condition is vasodilator CONTRAINDICATED in?
Tetra of Fallot (more cyanosis due to decreased pressure in aorta > increase R-L shunting)
