Electrocardiography of Laboratory Animals, Second Edition, is the only publication covering electrocardiography of laboratory animals. With countries instituting requirements for the care of laboratory animals in research, this publication offers a standard on performing and analyzing ECGs. Topics covered include safety electrocardiography, toxicology, safety pharmacology, and telemetry, all important areas of discussion for biological and medical researchers, veterinarians, zoologists, and students who need to understand the electrocardiography of five species of animals used in research: canines, nonhuman primates, mini pigs, rodents (rats and mice), rabbits and cats.

Offers guidance in interpretation of laboratory animal ECGs by animal type
Provides comparisons of ECGs across animal species
Includes coverage of three animal species: canines, nonhuman primates and mini pigs, also including three additional species: rodents (rats and mice), rabbits and cats
Supports adherence to FDA requirements of ECG performance and qualitative analysis on large laboratory animals

"This book will be useful for laboratory animal researchers, veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and veterinary and graduate students as well as researchers who are studying potential cardiotoxic effects of new treatments. The authors have appropriately built on the foundation of the first edition with the addition of new pearls of wisdom and experience in obtaining and interpreting ECGs of laboratory animals." --Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association
