| Summary: | Cardiac diseases are known to be some of the most prevalent diseases in companion animals. Numerous studies in the literature have cited the prevalence of these diseases in different regions and the importance of timely diagnosing said pathologies. However not many details are available regarding Cluj county. This single-center retrospective study was designed to shed light on the overall distribution of the cardiac diseases affecting the canine and feline population in Cluj-Napoca in order to raise awareness to not only clinicians but to owners as well. The study has been carried out on a period of 30 months and the data has been collected from the University of Agricultural Science and Veterinary Medicine of Cluj-Napoca's databases. Up to this date only one other such study has been carried at another center. We hope that this study will pave the way for a multi-centered retrospective study in the future. |
