How do I know if my pet may have a cardiac issue that needs treatment?
Your pet may not always have visible signs that indicate a cardiac issue, while others may display signs that could indicate a problem. These include:
- Difficulty breathing
- Coughing
- Fainting
- Lethargy
It is important to maintain all of your pet’s regular visits with their primary care veterinarian so that if an issue does arise, it can be found and treated as soon as possible.
Terms to know as a pet owner:
Congenital – This refers to changes in the heart that are typically present at birth. If your pet has a congenital heart condition, it will be monitored and evaluated regularly.
Pericardial – This refers to changes in the sac that surrounds the heart. The most common issue that can arise is the formation of fluid.
The Cardiology Department at CASE specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac conditions. Pets can have heart problems that develop with age or as congenital defects. Many heart conditions are manageable, and our board-certified veterinary Cardiologists are dedicated to improving the quality and length of life for pets with heart disease.
