- Abstract
In the present study, electrocardiography was performed before and immediately after the end of exercise in five female Hanoverian horses during the training season. The apex/base lead I was used. The influence of exercise on the amplitude and duration of the ECG complexes was recorded. Some abnormalities of cardiac rhythm (second-degree AV block, ventricular premature complexes) during rest were noted, too. Deviation in the length of P, S, R waves and the PQ interval were established after physical exertion. It was found out that exercise had no significant effect upon ECG wave amplitudes.
