Avaliação eletrocardiográfica e do equilíbrio eletrolítico de felinos domésticos com doença do trato urinário inferior dos felinos obstrutiva.

Abstract

The objective of this research was to describe the main electrolyte and electrocardiographic changes observed in cats treated at the clogged clinical routine and correlate them, determining the influence of electrolyte imbalance on the electrocardiogram cats with Urinary Tract Disease Feline Lower Obstructive. We evaluated 10 cats with urethral obstruction obtained from routine outpatient UFCG Veterinary Hospital and Medical Center Veterinarian Dr. Leonardo Torres in Patos-PB. The animals were divided into two groups, called G <36 and G> 36, in relation to the time of obstruction. Were evaluated Body Temperature, Respiratory Rate, Heart Rate, urinalysis, electrolytes such as Ca + +, P, Mg + +, Na + and K +, and urea, creatinine and electrocardiogram. The most common changes in history were dysuria (100%), oligodipsia (80%), disorexia / anorexia (70%) and apathy (70%). On physical examination, were observed in M0, dehydration (80%), tachypnea (50%) and hypothermia (60%) in both groups. In urinalysis was observed in 100% of proteinuria and hematuria samples 80%, 50% of the samples were alkaline leucocyturia was seen in 70% and 60% were in the range of normal density. The main electrolyte abnormalities were mild hypocalcemia, M0 recorded in both groups. Hypernatremia and hypermagnesemia were observed in M0 G> 36, hyponatremia was seen in the M0 and Ml of G <36 and G M l > 36 and hyperkalemia was reported in both groups of M0. The QT interval is prolonged presented at all times of the G <36. We conclude that cats have clogged electrolyte imbalances and electrocardiographic play direct influences on cardiac electrophysiology.
