Prevention, prevention, prevention.

Heartworm Disease, caused by infections from Dirofilaria immitis, is a globally dispersed and clinically significant cardiopulmonary disease seen in canids and felids, as well as other genera (e.g., Mustelidae, Otariidae). Endemic areas of the United States have shown up to 45% prevalence, with tropical climates conferring the chance at even higher infection rates.

Medical and surgical management of canine heartworm disease can be difficult for a myriad of reasons. Furthermore, even with complete resolution of infection, some animals experience long term effects from the damage inflicted. Prevention and monitoring remain key aspects of eradication programs across the globe.
