Life with Dilated cardiomyopathy Understanding your heart 06 07 How the heart functions electrically The pumping action of the heart is caused by a flow of electricity through the heart that repeats itself in a cycle. This is normally triggered by the heart’s natural pacemaker, the SA node (sino-atrial node), which is in the right atrium (see the diagram below). The SA node sends out regular ...

Understanding Feline Cardiomyopathy
DCM is characterized by a poorly contracting dilated left ventricle and oftentimes enlarged atria. Cats with DCM usually progress to congestive heart failure. Potential Outcomes Although there is variable progression with feline cardiomyopathy with many cats remaining asymptomatic for years, many will progress to developing clinical signs

Marelli et al reported that the mean life expectancy without operation did not exceed 3 decades,3 and the oldest reported survivors were 54 years old.3,4 To the best of our knowledge, this patient is the oldest reported survivor of PA-VSD. Survival of PA-VSD patients is dependent on the ade-quacy of pulmonary blood flow derived from direct or

the atrium and ventricle on each side lies a valve – the tricuspid on the right and the mitral on the left – that regulates blood flow into the chambers. As the heart pumps, these valves act as one-way gates allowing blood to flow from the atrium above to the ventricle below and preventing blood from flowing back into the atrium. From the ...
