ECG changes in dogs with hypothyroidism. 1978

A H Nijhuis, and A A Stokhof, and G H Huisman, and A Rijnberk

The results of electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings in 19 dogs with primary hypothyroidism are presented. Low voltage and inverted T waves were the most frequently observed abnormalities. In a number of dogs the ECG changes contributed to the diagnosis of hypothyroidism. A few dogs had even been referred to the cardiopulmonary service because of decreased exercise tolerance and the ECG pointed to the need for thyroid function studies.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007037 Hypothyroidism A syndrome that results from abnormally low secretion of THYROID HORMONES from the THYROID GLAND, leading to a decrease in BASAL METABOLIC RATE. In its most severe form, there is accumulation of MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDES in the SKIN and EDEMA, known as MYXEDEMA. It may be primary or secondary due to other pituitary disease, or hypothalamic dysfunction.
