Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of age and gender on the value of electroretinogram (ERG) in healthy dogs. The ERG responses of 68 eyes of 34 dogs (22 males, 12 females) were recorded following the diagnostic protocol for dogs recommended by International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision under general anesthesia using medetomidine and tiletamine-zolazepam combination. There were significant differences in the implicit time of a-wave of Hi-int R & C response among age groups (P < 0.05) and in the implicit time of a-wave of cone response between male and female (P < 0.05). The rest ERG responses seem to be not affected by age and gender of healthy dogs.

본 연구의 목적은 건강한 내원견을 대상으로 측정한 망막전위도에 나이 및 성별이 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는데 있다. 보호자가 임상 실험에 참가하는 것을 동의한 34두의 개를 medetomidine과 tiletamine-zolazepam혼합제로 전신마취하여 ISCEV에서 권고하는 진단용 프로토콜에 따라 망막전위도를 측정하였다. 성별간 비교시는 cone 반응의 a파의 지연시간에서 그리고 나이별 비교시 Hi-int R & C 반응의 a파 지연시간에서 유의성을 각각 나타내었다 (P < 0.05). 나머지 ERG반응들은 나이와 성별에 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
