Don’t Take Coughing to Heart: when coughing isn’t cardiac.

The elderly small breed dog with a cough and a heart murmur is a common clinical conundrum in small animal practice. Historically, cough is reported as a major clinical sign of cardiogenic pulmonary oedema in dogs. However, current evidence contradicts this widely held assumption connecting cough to congestive heart failure.

The aim of this evening is to review the cough mechanism, review the current evidence for cardiogenic coughing and present a pragmatic, case-based approach to the coughing cardiac patient.

Speakers:

• Julie Hamilton Elliott BVSc CertAVP(SAM) PGCertVPS DipECVIM-CA MRCVS RCVS and EBVS® European Specialist in Veterinary Cardiology
• Alison Irwin BVM&S MRCVS CertAVP (SAM) PgCertImag(WBIS) RCVS Advanced Practitioner Small Animal Medicine

When: Wednesday 25th September 2024
