The effect of right vs. left recumbency on computation of the vertebral heart score (VHS) was assessed in 63 healthy dogs. The VHS was significantly higher in right lateral recumbency (9.8±0.6 vs. 9.5±0.8; P<0.0004). Gender and dog size did not significantly influence VHS values while there was more difference between left and right side measurements when considering the type of thorax (P=0.055).

Abstract

The effect of right vs. left recumbency on computation of the vertebral heart score (VHS) was assessed in 63 healthy dogs. The VHS was significantly higher in right lateral recumbency (9.8±0.6 vs. 9.5±0.8; P<0.0004). Gender and dog size did not significantly influence VHS values while there was more difference between left and right side measurements when considering the type of thorax (P=0.055).
