CARDIAC OSCULTATION IN DOGS and CATS

Öz

Auscultation is the most important part of the cardiovascular examination. It should be done systematically, usually after a physical examination, with a careful rest of the entire thorax and a focus on all cardiac regions. Heart sounds are produced by turbulent blood flow and vibrations of the heart and vessels. In this review, besides performing cardiac auscultation in dogs and cats, detailed information about normal and abnormal heart sounds on auscultation, arrhythmias and cardiac murmurs heard on auscultation were shared.

KÖPEK ve KEDİLERDE KARDİYAK OSKULTASYON

Öz

Oskültasyon, kardiyovasküler muayenenin en önemli kısmıdır. Genellikle fiziksel muayeneden sonra sistematik bir şekilde yapılmalı, toraksın tamamı dikkatlice dinlenmeli ve tüm kardiyak bölgelere odaklanılmalıdır. Kalp sesleri, türbülanslı kan akışı ve kalp ve damarların titreşimleriyle oluşur. Bu derlemede köpek ve kedilerde kardiyak oskultasyonun yapılışının yanısıra, oskultasyondaki normal ve anormal kalp sesleri, oskültasyonda duyulan aritmiler ve kardiyak üfürümler hakkında detaylı bilgiler paylaşıldı.
