Hypoglycaemic bradycardia and circulatory collapse in a dog and a cat
Abstract
Hypoglycaemia was accompanied by sinus bradycardia and circulatory collapse in a dog and a cat. In each case, when the hypoglycaemia was corrected by intravenous infusion of a glucose solution the bradycardia and circulatory failure were soon abolished, indicating that these abnormalities were caused by the hypoglycaemia. Similar observations have been made in human patients. To the author's knowledge, this is the first report documenting hypoglycaemic bradycardia in veterinary medicine.
