ศูนย์โรคหัวใจสัตว์เลี้ยง 
(Heart Center for Pets)

It is a specialized veterinary center that provides the care, diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases in pets in particular, as heart disease is a complex condition and requires close care from an experienced veterinary team and state-of-the-art tools to plan accurate treatments and help the pet have a long-lasting quality of life.

Warning signs of heart disease in dogs and cats that the owner should not ignore

Heart disease in the early stages may not show symptoms, but as the disease progresses, the owner may notice the following symptoms

• Chronic cough, especially dry cough after exercise or at night and in the morning
• Abnormally fatigued, unable to play or exercise for as long
• Having difficulty breathing or breathing faster than usual while resting
• Fainting/Syncope: may occur suddenly.
• Abdominal or bloating (ascites): fluid accumulates in the abdomen.
• The gums and tongue are pale or dark purple.
• Weight loss and food boredom

If these symptoms are found, the pet should be evaluated with a veterinarian as soon as possible.

Diagnosis of heart disease in dogs and cats with modern instruments

Accurate diagnosis of heart disease is of paramount importance in treatment planning. The Center therefore uses standard technology.

 Cat Dog Heart Ultrasound (Echocardiogram):

• It is the most important tool (Gold Standard) in the diagnosis of heart disease.
• Real-time cardiac imaging allows the veterinarian to see the structure of the heart, the size of the cardiac chamber, the function of the heart's tongue, and the thickness or compression of the heart muscle in detail.

 Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG):

• Using heart rate and electrical disturbance analysis
• Essential for diagnosing arrhythmias

 Cat Blood Pressure Measurement:

• Hypertension can be both a cause and a consequence of heart and kidney disease, so it needs to be monitored and controlled regularly.
