Monocytic Ehrlichiosis (CME) is a systemic disease prevalent in the entire world
caused by the obligate intracellular bacteria Ehrlichia canis. The
occurrence of myocarditis with a high prevalence of arrhythmias in dogs
affected by this disease in the cytopenic phase has already been proven. This study aims to evaluate the
concentrations of CK MB, cTnI and NT-proBNP in dogs affected by Ehrlichia canis
in the chronic phase since the intense stimulation of the immune system can
lead to myocarditis; to evaluate if the condition can lead to arrhythmic events
and, if so, define their frequency and classification through conventional and
ambulatory electrocardiogram tests (Holter method) for a period of 24 hours; to
analyze heart rate variability in the time domain and whether the condition can
lead to autonomic imbalance; and to determine the survival rate of affected
dogs, identifying possible risk factors for mortality at this stage of the
disease.
