JOURNAL OF VETERINARY CARDIOLOGY, 30, 77–91.
author keywords: Feline; Beta-btocker; Accelerometry
MeSH headings : Administration, Oral; Animals; Anti-Arrhythmia Agents / administration & dosage; Anti-Arrhythmia Agents / therapeutic use; Atenolol / administration & dosage; Atenolol / therapeutic use; Biomarkers / blood; Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic / drug therapy; Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic / veterinary; Cat Diseases / blood; Cat Diseases / drug therapy; Cats; Double-Blind Method; Female; Male; Quality of Life; Treatment Outcome
TL;DR:
This study failed to identify an effect of subclinical HCM on owner-assessed QOL or activity or a treatment effect of atenolol on these variables at the dosage evaluated, and these findings do not support a treatment benefit of atanolol for the goal of symptom reduction in cats with sub clinical HCM.
