Description
Discover the features of a thorough physical exam (resting and exercising), pertinent historical questions to evaluate the cardio-pulmonary system, and portions of the exam that should be tailored to the horse’s intended purpose.
Findings that are unlikely to be a problem, as well as those that warrant more in-depth, specialized tests will be discussed, with particular emphasis on the echocardiogram and electrocardiogram (resting and exercising).
Common potential results and the likely impact on athletic potential will be mentioned.
