Event Details

Presented by: Bruna Del Nero, MV, DVM, MS, DACVIM

In this 2-hour session, you will learn a practical approach to ECG interpretation, including how to identify various types of arrhythmias and manage them as a non-cardiologist. The first hour will be lecture-based, followed by time for questions. We will then work through real cases together.

Learning Objectives:

1. Apply a systematic, practical approach to ECG interpretation in order to recognize normal rhythms and common clinically relevant arrhythmias in dogs and cats.
2. Identify which findings warrant monitoring, medical management, or cardiology referral.
3. Develop initial management plans for common arrhythmias using real clinical cases, with an emphasis on decision-making appropriate for non-cardiologists.

Bruna earned her veterinary degree from the University of São Paulo in 2014 and emigrated to the United States shortly thereafter. She pursued a career in veterinary cardiology, which had been her area of interest and focus since early in her veterinary education. She completed a rotating internship in small animal medicine and surgery at the University of Florida in 2020 and a cardiology residency at Colorado State University in 2023. She also obtained a Master of Science in clinical sciences from the same institution. Following her residency at CSU, she worked as a clinical assistant professor of cardiology at the University of Florida. She is proud and excited to have returned to CSU as a interventional cardiology fellow - even though she is interested in many aspects of her specialty, she is particularly passionate about minimally invasive and hybrid cardiac interventions.
