Karadeniz Bölgesindeki 562 Köpekte Kalp Hastalıklarının Retrospektif Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Kalp hastalıklarının önlenmesi ve tedavisi için kardiyak verilerin retrospektif olarak değerlendirilmesi esastır. Bu şekilde tanıda doğru adımlar atılabilir. Bu çalışmada Karadeniz Bölgesi'nin çeşitli illerinden Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Hayvan Hastanesi'ne getirilen ve kalp hastalığı tanısı konulan 562 köpeğe ait verilerin retrospektif olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Klinik bulgular, elektrokardiyografik ve ekokardiyografik muayeneler ile kan analizleri değerlendirilmiştir. 525 hastada (%93,41) edinsel kalp hastalığı, 37 hastada (%6,59) ise doğmasal kalp hastalığı saptanmıştır. Köpeklerde en sık görülen edinsel kalp hastalığı dilate kardiyomiyopati, en sık görülen doğmasal kalp hastalığı ise patent duktus arteriosus olarak bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, İç Hastalıkları departmanına bu yıllar arasında toplamda 11614 köpek gelmiştir. Bunlardan 562 tanesine kardiyak hastalığı teşhisi konulmuştur. Yani karadeniz bölgesindeki kardiyak hastalıkların prevalansı %4.84 olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışma ile kalp hastalıklarının tanısında klinik bulgular, fiziksel muayene ve tanı uygulamalarının birlikte değerlendirilmesi gerektiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Retrospective Evaluation of Cardiac Diseases in 562 Dogs in the Black Sea Region

Öz

Retrospective evaluation of cardiac data is essential for the prevention and treatment of cardiac diseases. In this way, correct steps can be taken in diagnosis. In this study, it was aimed to retrospectively evaluate the data of 562 dogs brought to Ondokuz Mayıs University Animal Hospital from various provinces of the Black Sea region and diagnosed with cardiac diseases. Clinical findings, electrocardiographic data, echocardiography and blood analysis were evaluated. 525 patients (93.41%) had acquired heart disease and 37 patients (6.59%) had congenital heart disease. The most common acquired heart disease in dogs was dilated cardiomyopathy and the most common congenital heart disease was patent ductus arteriosus. In addition, a total of 11614 dogs came to the Internal Medicine department between these years. Of these, 562 were diagnosed with cardiac disease. In other words, the prevalence of cardiac diseases in the Black Sea region was determined as 4.84%. With this study, it was concluded that clinical findings, physical examination and diagnostic practices should be evaluated together in the diagnosis of cardiac diseases.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Etik Beyan

Bu çalışma rutin klinik süreçler kapsamında daha önce elde edilen kayıtların değerlendirilmesi ile yapılmış olup ek bir müdahale yapılmamıştır. Bu nedenle retrospektif bir çalışma olması nedeniyle etik kurul onayına gerek yoktur. Ayrıca araştırma sürecinde hayvan refahı ve veri güvenliği ilkelerine sıkı sıkıya uyulmuştur. Çalışma, ilgili kurumun etik standartlarına uygun olarak yürütülmüştür. Ayrıca, yayında belirtilen (2020-2025) yıllarda, yayında yerini almış hayvanların tüm muayeneleri ve işlemleri yayında adı geçen iki yazar tarafından gerçekleştirilmiştir. İki yazarın dahil olmadığı vakalar çalışmaya dahil edilmemiştir.
