patient presents with 2/6 plateau shaped murmur. rads taken- what wrong
DCM (rounded)
What wrong
pericardial effusion
what blue arrow pointing at and what is it indicative of
Arrow: aortic bump
Dx: PDA
what grade murmur, shape and PMI does DCM have
2/6, plateau shaped, PMI: left apex
what grade murmur, shape, and PMI does DVD have
grade 4/6, plateau shaped, PMI: left apex
what do you hear with pericardial effusion
muffled heart sounds
what grade murmur, type and PMI for PDA
grade 5/6 continuous murmur, PMI: left base
what wrong and what is this consistent with
Enlarged pulmonary veins, small VHS
Dx: HCM/CHF
what wrong and what is this associated with
enlarged pulmonary artery
Dx: heart worm disease
what wrong and what is this associated with
left atrial enlargement
DVD
what wrong
Enlarged trachobronchial LN- compresses trachea ventrally not dorsally like enlarged LA
Case 1: 10yr MN Labrador retriever with acute cough, RR= 80, femoral pulse (95), increased inspiratory effort, abdominal distention.
Grade 2/6 plateau shaped systolic murmur with PMI over left apex, tachycardia, and irregular rhythm. Pulmonary crackles in right ventral caudal lung field.
Based on age, breed, signs. What are you concerned about. What valve is PMI over
age: acquired, large breed dog, low grade murmur: DCM
PMI: left apex: mitral valve
Pulmonary signs: Left sided congestive heart failure
tachycardia and irregular rhythm consistent with a-fib or a-flutter– CHF
case: 6yr, FS Westie presents with chronic cough that occurs when excited. Panting and femoral pulse= 90, inducible tracheal cough
Grade 4/6 plateau shaped systolic murmur with PMI over left apex, HR=90, irregular rhythm and pulmonary crackles.
Based on hx, age and breed what are you concerned about. Where is PMI, what are pulmonary signs indicative of
older, small breed dog, high grade murmur- DVD
PMI: mitral valve
Breed pulmonary signs consistent with pulmonary fibrosis
