Electrocardiographic evaluation of the healthy raccoon (Procyon lotor)
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1986SUMMARY Leads I, aVF, V3, and V10 ecg were obtained from 12 healthy raccoons anesthetized with xylazine and ketamine. Intervals and amplitudes of component deflections were remarkably uniform among the individuals. Vector orientation of QRS mimicked that for the dog; but the relatively low voltages to QRS mimicked those of cats.
