Electroretinography in dogs using a fiber electrode prototype
We compared two electroretinography (ERG) electrodes in dogs using ERG standards of the International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision (ISCEV). Ten healthy Yorkshire terrier dogs (mean age, 2.80 ± 1.42 years; 6 females) weighing 5.20 ± 1.56 kg were evaluated using an ERG system for v...

We compared two electroretinography (ERG) electrodes in dogs using ERG standards
of the International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision (ISCEV).
Ten healthy Yorkshire terrier dogs (mean age, 2.80 ± 1.42 years; 6 females)
weighing 5.20 ± 1.56 kg were evaluated using an ERG system for veterinary use.
Dark- and light-adapted ERG responses were recorded using an ERG-Jet electrode
and a fiber electrode prototype. The examinations were performed during 2
visits, 3 weeks apart. Both electrodes (ERG-Jet or fiber prototype) were used on
each animal and the first eye to be recorded (OD × OS) was selected randomly.
Three weeks later the examination was repeated on the same animal switching the
type of electrode to be used that day and the first eye to be examined. The
magnitude and waveform quality obtained with the two electrode types were
similar for all ERG responses. ERG amplitudes and implicit times obtained from
dogs using the fiber electrode prototype were comparable to those obtained with
the ERG-Jet electrode for rod, maximal rod-cone summed, cone, and 30-Hz flicker
responses. The fiber electrode prototype is a low-cost device, available as an
alternative instrument for clinical veterinary ERG recording for retinal
function assessment. |
