Linear Correlations of Heart Measurements in Dogs With Degenerative Mitral Valve Disease Depending From the Stage of the Disease

Type: article
Abstract: The assessment of the left ventricular (LV) function in critically ill dogs with degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD) can help and guide the clinician in choosing the most appropriate treatment. This gave us reason to test the hypothesis that the degree of correlations of the cardiac MEASUREMENTS with the E-point of the septal separation of the mitral valve and the degree of correlations of the same measurements with the fraction of left ventricular shortening depend on the degree of the disease. We found more correlations in the cardiac measurements of dogs in stage B of the disease compared to those in stage C.
