Atrial fibrillation is a common and often debilitating arrhythmia, which can affect a heterogenous patient population. Being in atrial fibrillation reduces cardiac output significantly, and can lead to a vicious circle of tachycardia and cardiac remodelling. Join Jose and Kieran as they interview Professor Anna Gelzer, from the University of Pennsylvania in the USA, and Dr Brigite Pedro, from Centro de Cardiologia Veterinaria do Porto and Virtual Veterinary Specialists. Prof Gelzer is a world renowned expert in conduction disturbances in companion animals, and Dr Pedro has recently completed a PhD in atrial fibrillation in dogs. As part of this work, they have collaborated on landmark research into the outcome of dogs with atrial fibrillation. In this episode, results from their recent publications are shared, alongside a wealth of experience in managing dogs with this challenging condition.
