How to approach… Syncope in cats and dogs

Cardiology | 69 mins

This webinar takes you through how to approach an animal that is syncopal. Initially we look at collapse and the numerous possibilities that this term can refer to. We then focus on cardiac causes of collapse and syncope and in particular clues that we might find in the history and physical examination. Available diagnostic tests are also reviewed.
