Abstract

Cardiac arrest occurred in a male Labrador Retriever dog weighing 27.8 kg during induction to anesthesia. Immediately after the failure of resuscitation by the external cardiac compression, thoracotomy was performed and open chest direct current (DC) counter shocks were applied with routine emergency medications. Then the dog recovered consciousness. Although cardiac rhythm just after resuscitation was sinus tachycardia with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, multifocal ventricular arrhythmia occurred 2 hr after resuscitation. This arrhythmia might be the result from reversible cardiac lesions due to DC counter shock.
