Ventricular tachycardia was diagnosed in a 12-year-old unconditioned Appaloosa gelding after a 3-day trail ride. Initial signs were those of abdominal discomfort, ileus, and dehydration. Medical treatment included IV administration of lactated Ringer's solution. During hospitalization, the horse developed ventricular tachycardia. Serum potassium concentrations were within reference limits; however, assessment of total body potassium stores was not performed. Resolution of the arrhythmia occurred with further fluid treatment and potassium supplementation. Cardiac arrhythmias should be considered in horses in which fluid and electrolyte disturbances are evident after exhaustive exercise.
一匹12岁未经调教的阿帕卢萨种公马在进行了为期3天的试骑后被诊断出室性心动过速。最初的症状是腹部不适、肠梗阻和脱水。药物治疗包括静脉输注乳酸林格氏液。住院期间，这匹马出现了室性心动过速。血清钾浓度在参考范围内；然而，未对总体钾储备进行评估。通过进一步的液体治疗和补钾，心律失常得到缓解。对于在剧烈运动后出现明显体液和电解质紊乱的马匹，应考虑心律失常的情况。
