  2. Boxer cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxer_cardiomyopathy

    Although relatively rare, oral antiarrhythmic medications may be proarrhythmic in some dogs; consequently, appropriate monitoring and follow-up is recommended. [2] [11] The ideal therapy for Boxer cardiomyopathy would be implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). This has been attempted in a limited number of dogs. [12]

  3. Dilated cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilated_cardiomyopathy

    Dilated cardiomyopathy is a heritable disease in some dog breeds, including the Boxer, Dobermann, Great Dane, Irish Wolfhound, and St Bernard. [42] Treatment is based on medication, including ACE inhibitors, loop diuretics, and phosphodiesterase inhibitors. [citation needed]

  4. Pulse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse

    In medicine, the pulse is the rhythmic throbbing of each artery in response to the cardiac cycle (heartbeat). [1] The pulse may be palpated in any place that allows an artery to be compressed near the surface of the body, such as at the neck (carotid artery), wrist (radial artery or ulnar artery), at the groin (femoral artery), behind the knee (popliteal artery), near the ankle joint ...

    A dog’s heart rate variability adapted to match their parent’s during an interaction. When the human’s variability was high, the dog’s would be too. And, when they had low variability ...

  6. Arrhythmia - Wikipedia

    The impulse then spreads through both ventricles via the bundle of His and the Purkinje fibers causing a synchronized contraction of the heart muscle and, thus, the pulse. [citation needed] In adults, the normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 90 beats per minute. The resting heart rate in children is much faster.

  7. Heart rate variability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate_variability

    Respiratory arrhythmia (or respiratory sinus arrhythmia). [39] [40] This heart rate variation is directly caused by the central respiratory rhythm, faithfully tracks the respiratory rate across a range of frequencies and is a major cause of heart rate variability in humans (Cooper HE, Clutton-Brock TH & Parkes MJ (2004). Contribution of the ...

  8. Dog health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_health

    Dogs are unable to metabolize theobromine effectively. If they eat chocolate, the theobromine can remain in their bloodstreams for days, and dogs may experience fast heart rate, severe diarrhea, epileptic seizures, heart attacks, internal bleeding, and eventually death. [37]

  9. Accelerated idioventricular rhythm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_idio...

    Accelerated idioventricular rhythm is a ventricular rhythm with a rate of between 40 and 120 beats per minute. Idioventricular means “relating to or affecting the cardiac ventricle alone” and refers to any ectopic ventricular arrhythmia. [ 1 ]
