The updated VCOG-CTCAE v2 guidelines contain several important updates and additions since the last update (v1.1) was released in 2011 published within Veterinary Comparative Oncology 2016. As Cooperative Group (VCOG) is no longer an active entity, original authors contributors to v1.0 v1.1 were consulted for input, additional co-authors sought expansion refinement of adverse event (AE) categories. includes expanded neurology, cardiac immunologic AE sections, addition procedural-specific...
Transcatheter therapeutics have revolutionized treatment of pulmonary valve stenosis (PS). Further understanding PS intervention may help improve outcomes for different species. This study describes characteristics and immediate in children dogs undergoing balloon valvuloplasty (BPV) or transpulmonary stent implantation congenital PS. Multicenter, retrospective review from 2 pediatric 3 veterinary centers. Demographics, procedural characteristics, were assessed. Successful was defined as a...
Time-and dose-dependent adverse effects of amiodarone have not been described in cats. The primary aim this retrospective multicenter cohort study was to report the type and frequency clinical biochemical changes cats receiving chronically. secondary survival outcomes population Medical records were reviewed for signalment, arrhythmia diagnosis, presence structural heart disease, systemic comorbidities congestive failure at presentation, dose, serial bloodwork results, events, outcome....
Abstract Background Associations of diet with dilated cardiomyopathy are under investigation. Objectives That cardiac assessment would show abnormalities in healthy dogs eating grain‐free (GF) diets or Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐listed ingredients concern (peas, lentils, potatoes) as top 10 (FDA‐PLP), but not grain‐inclusive (GI) without FDA‐listed (PLP) the (NoFDA‐PLP). Animals One hundred eighty‐eight Doberman Pinschers, Golden Retrievers, Miniature Schnauzers, Whippets. Methods...

Abstract OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical presentation and outcome in dogs diagnosed with Trypanosoma cruzi infection nonendemic areas to survey veterinary cardiologists North America for Chagas disease awareness. ANIMALS 12 client-owned dogs; 83 respondents from a cardiology listserv. PROCEDURES A retrospective, multicenter medical records review identify American trypanosomiasis between December 2010 2020. An anonymous online was conducted August 9 22, 2022. RESULTS Diagnosis made using...
Transcatheter therapeutics have revolutionized treatment of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Greater understanding corrective interventions across species can advance best practices, protocols, and outcomes while minimizing adverse events. The objective this study was to describe characteristics in children dogs undergoing transcatheter PDA occlusion.
Borzoi are large, relatively uncommon sighthounds anecdotally reported to suffer from sudden death. This multicenter retrospective cohort study aimed describe the sample of presenting veterinary cardiologists for evaluation, with records searched 14 centers across a period up 20 years. The was comprised 152 client-owned Borzoi, dogs most commonly pre-breed screening in 87/152 (52%), followed by evaluation an arrhythmia 28/152 (18%). Of 131/152 (86%) that had echocardiogram performed, 85/131...
