Older cat, recent new heart murmur.

Asymptomatic, was done for pre-anesthetic purposes.

-I think the LVOT is turbulent but I was not able to document SAM on m-mode.  Do you see SAM?

-In a case that is thick, but has normal LA:Ao and SAM, do you start on something like atenolol?  HR was about 225 during exam period.

Thanks!

Suzanne
