Abstract

To evaluate risk factors associated with different types of cardiac death in cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Two hundred fifty-five cats with HCM referred to a veterinary teaching hospital. This is a retrospective study. Cats with HCM were identified that had either died within 2 years of diagnosis or were known to be alive 2 years after initial examination. Signalment, physical exam, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic data were analyzed separately for association with death due to congestive heart failure (CHF) vs. aortic thromboembolism (ATE) vs. sudden death. Within 2 years of follow-up, 23/255 (9.0%) cats had died with ATE, 44/255 (17.3%) cats had died with CHF and 12/255 (4.7%) cats had experienced a sudden death, with 141/255 (55.3%) cats still alive at the end of 2 years. Presence of CHF at presentation and reduced left ventricular fractional shortening (FS%) were independently associated with a CHF death within 2 years of diagnosis. Presence of ATE and reduced left atrial fractional shortening (LA-FS%) were independently associated with dying with ATE within 2 years. No multivariable models were generated for risks of dying a sudden death owing to the low event rate, but syncope at presentation and ...Continue Reading

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.

Ataxia telangiectasia (MDS)

Ataxia telangiectasia is a rare neurodegenerative diseases caused by defects in the ATM gene, which is involved in DNA damage recognition and repair pathways. Here is the latest research on this autosomal recessive disease.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
