Sağlıklı Kedilerde Duvara Monta ve Mobil Cihaz ile Ölçülen Kan Basıncı Değerlerinin Karşılaştırılması

Abstract

Bu çalışma, küçük hayvan kliniğine getirilen sağlıklı kedilerde, iki farklı osilometrik kan basıncı ölçüm cihazı arasındaki olası farklılıkların belirlenmesi ve kliniğimizde kan basıncı referans değerlerinin oluşturulması amacıyla yapıldı. Farklı ırklardan, sağlıklı, ortanca 8.75 aylık (3-36), 50 kedi (28 erkek, 22 dişi) çalışmaya dahil edildi. Kedilerin kan basıncı değerleri ve nabız ölçümleri duvara monte (WMD) ve mobil (MD) kan basıncı monitörleri kullanılarak ölçüldü. Sağ ön ekstremite ölçümlerinde; manşetin kese kısmı, antebrachium’un orta kısmına gelecek şekilde, arteria radialis üzerine yerleştirildi. Kuyruk bölgesinden ölçülen değerleri için; manşetin kese kısmı arteria coccygea medialis üzerine gelecek şekilde mümkün olduğunca kuyruk köküne yakın yerleştirildi. Duvara monta edilmiş cihaz ile sağ ön ekstremite (135.90±16.34 mmHg) ve kuyruk (145.32±21.20 mmHg) bölgesinden ölçülen sistolik kan basıncı (SBP) değerleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde bir fark görüldü (P=0.020). Her iki cihaz ile sağ ön ekstremite ve kuyruktan ölçülen DBP (mmHg), MAP (mmHg) ve Nabız (bpm) değerleri arasında ise bir fark görülmedi (P>0.05). Mobil kan basıncı ölçüm cihazı ile sağ ön ekstremiteden alınan SBP, DBP, MAP ve nabız değerleri, sırasıyla; 136.10±16.37 mmHg, 83.74±17.0, 101.62±16.13 mmHg ve 167 (134-227) bpm olarak ölçüldü. Sonuç olarak, her iki osilometrik kan basıncı ölçüm cihazının uyumlu olduğu ve sağlıklı kedilerin kan basıncının ölçülmesinde birbirinin yerine kullanılabileceği görüldü. Bu çalışma ile ERÜ Veteriner Fakültesi kliniklerinde türetilen KB değerlerinin veteriner hekimler veya teknisyenleri tarafından güvenle kullanılabileceğine karar verilmiştir.

Comparison of Wall Mounted and Mobile Blood Pressure Devices Values Obtained from Healthy Cats

Abstract

This study was aimed to determine the possible differences between two different oscillometric devices measured blood pressure. Additionally, it was carried out to determine the range levels of blood pressure measured in healthy cats admitted to a small animal clinic. In different breeds, healthy 50 cats, the median age was 8.75 months, and ranged between 3 to 36 months) were included in this study. Blood pressure values and pulse measurements of the cats were measured using the wall mounted (WMD) and mobile (MD) BP monitors. BP measurements were taken from the right front leg, arteria radialis on the mid of the antebrachium and tail root over the arteria coccygea medialis on the median line. Mean SBP measurements taken from right forelimb (135.90±16.34 mmHg) and tail (145.32±21.20 mmHg) by WMD were statistically different (P=0.020). Mean DBP (mmHg), MAP (mmHg) and Pulse (bpm) measurements were not different on different sites by each device (P>0.05). Mean SBP, DBP, MAP and pulse values of the right front forelimb using the mobile device were 136.10±16.37 mmHg, 83.74±17.0, 101.62±16.13 mmHg and 167 (134-227) bpm respectively. As a result, oscillometric blood pressure mobile devices and wall-mounted devices are compatible and can be used interchangeably in measuring the blood pressure in healthy cats. It is recommended to use the right forelimb for measuring blood pressure in cats. The reference ranges derived from in this study can be used by veterinary clinicians or technicians.
