Cardiology: A preoperative screen ECG is a fast, easy and cost-effective way to assess the cardiac risk of anesthesia. Recent retrospective analysis of canine and feline preanesthetic screen ECGs indicated that 1 in 12 dogs (8.3%) and 1 in 8 cats (12.0%) had abnormalities that might preclude the use of anesthesia. A routine ECG can also be used to determine the potential or presence of other causes of heart rhythm abnormalities and can give an indication of overall heart health. Additionally, in emergency cases, an ECG can provide critical information used to save an animal's life.
