|
|
An 11-year-old male Beagle, weighing 10.5 kg, was presented with sudden bradyarrhthmia and severe hypotension after incidental ingestion of diltiazem. The dog was treated with intravenous(IV) isotonic crystalloid solution, atropine, calcium gluconate, dobutamine, glucagon and gastric lavage under the aid of temporary transcutaneous cardiac pacing. With the short-term use of transcutaneous cardiac pacing and medical treatment, the heart rhythm and the condition of the patient were stabilized.
