Non-human primates are frequently used in anatomical and physiological research due to their similarity to humans. Currently, echocardiographic reference values are missing. Therefore, this study evaluated echocardiographic parameters in spp., focusing on marmoset species under human care. Using color Doppler, M-mode, and B-mode, in a MyLab Gamma device (Esaote, Italy), examinations were conducted on 168 clinical healthy animals of the species , , , and hybrids, of both sexes, with an average weight of 328 ± 71 g. The samples were collected from the Mucky Project and the São Bernardo do Campo Zoo in São Paulo, Brazil, between November 2021 and May 2022. The animals were restrained with isoflurane, using a mask for induction and maintenance at a rate of 1 to 3% with 100% oxygen. Parameters such as the ventricular and atrial diameter, shortening fraction, and ejection fraction, among others, were measured. Cardiac reference values were assessed. The mild insufficiencies of the mitral and tricuspid valves were the most common findings in cases with alterations. These data serve as a refence for monitoring cardiac health in marmosets, aiding in both conservation and the management of captive primates.
由于非人灵长类动物与人类相似，它们经常被用于解剖学和生理学研究。目前，超声心动图参考值尚缺。因此，本研究评估了 种动物的超声心动图参数，重点关注人工饲养条件下的狨猴物种。使用MyLab Gamma设备（意大利百胜公司），通过彩色多普勒、M型和B型超声，对168只临床健康的 种、 种、 种动物以及杂交种动物进行了检查，涵盖两性，平均体重为328±71克。样本于2021年11月至2022年5月期间从巴西圣保罗的Mucky项目和圣贝尔纳多-杜坎普动物园采集。动物使用异氟醚麻醉，通过面罩诱导和维持麻醉，异氟醚浓度为1%至3%，氧气浓度为100%。测量了心室和心房直径、缩短分数、射血分数等参数。评估了心脏参考值。二尖瓣和三尖瓣轻度关闭不全是病变病例中最常见的发现。这些数据可作为监测狨猴心脏健康的参考，有助于圈养灵长类动物的保护和管理。
