Background: Although seizures are common in dogs, limited published information is available on the classifications of seizures, diagnostic approaches, or clinical management of seizure-affected patients in the veterinary primary care setting.
Objectives: Explore seizure etiology, diagnostic testing, and clinical management of seizure-affected dogs in the primary care veterinary setting.
Animals: A total of 455 553 dogs in VetCompass.
Background: Primary-care veterinary clinical records can offer data to determine generalizable epidemiological data on seizures occurrence in the dog population.
Objectives: To identify and examine epidemiologic characteristics of seizure occurrence in dogs under primary veterinary care in the UK participating in the VetCompass™ Programme.
Animals: 455,553 dogs in VetCompass™'.
