Heartworm (HW) disease, caused by , is a life-threatening ailment in dogs. HW disrupts blood flow and decreases cardiac output (CO). The accurate monitoring of CO during HW extraction is pivotal for patient survival and overall health.
This study aimed to assess the efficacy of using impedance cardiography (ICG) as a non-invasive approach for monitoring CO during interventional HW extraction.
Two cases of HW infections were treated via surgical extraction. The CO and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were monitored using the ICG technique during the anesthesia stabilization, extraction process, and post-extraction phases.
In Case 1, the CO increased by 115% post-procedure, and in Case 2, the CO increased by 116%. In contrast, the MAP varied between the two cases. The ICG method provided real-time CO data without major disruptions during the extraction surgery.
The ICG technique for CO monitoring during interventional HW extractions is effective.
由[病原体名称未给出]引起的犬心丝虫(HW)病是犬类的一种危及生命的疾病。心丝虫会扰乱血流并降低心输出量(CO)。在摘除心丝虫过程中准确监测心输出量对于患者的生存和整体健康至关重要。
本研究旨在评估使用阻抗心动图(ICG)作为一种非侵入性方法在介入性摘除心丝虫过程中监测心输出量的有效性。
通过手术摘除治疗了两例心丝虫感染病例。在麻醉稳定期、摘除过程和摘除后阶段,使用ICG技术监测心输出量和平均动脉压(MAP)。
在病例1中,术后心输出量增加了115%,在病例2中,心输出量增加了116%。相比之下,两例之间平均动脉压有所不同。ICG方法在摘除手术期间提供了实时心输出量数据,且未受到重大干扰。
在介入性摘除心丝虫过程中使用ICG技术监测心输出量是有效的。
