Presentation Description / Summary: During this discussion, large animal cardiology cases will be discussed with the audience, from the presenting complaint, approach to the diagnostic work up, interpretation of findings and management recommendations made, including pros and cons of any treatment or intervention. We will cover the diagnosis and management of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, complex congenital heart disease, myocardial injury and valvular disease in a variety of large animal species. This session will be highly interactive, with questions taken from the audience during the presentation and the opportunity for the audience to vote on what they would do from a diagnostic and treatment perspective, which will enrich the discussion.

Learning Objectives:

1. Attendees will become familiar with how to recognize the common presentations for cardiovascular problems occurring in large animal species
2. Attendees will develop an understanding of the standardized approach to diagnostics performed when working up large animal cardiology cases
3. Attendees will practice how to interpret the findings of diagnostic tests performed (echocardiography, ECG, non-invasive blood pressure, blood work)
