Readers will be asked to answer a series of questions in order to assess their knowledge and acquire the necessary skills for properly establishing a diagnosis.

Designed to cater to veterinary specialists in cardiology, anesthesia, intensive care, and emergency medicine as well as to general practitioners seeking to expand their knowledge of the analysis and treatment of arrhythmias in dogs and cats, this book explores rhythm disorders from both clinical and pathophysiological standpoints.
