25
rabies diagnosis
fluorescent antibody test
26
rabies control
mass vaccination of dogs and cats eliminations of strays oral baiting in the wild
27
canine parvovirus etiology
acute, contagious, infectious enteritis stable in environment for years olfactory sense
28
myocarditis
sudden death in puppies one type of parve disease syndrome
29
parvo transmisison
direct and indirect; carriers may shed virus in feces for two weeks
30
parvo incubation period
3-8 days
31
parvo lesion
hemorrhagic enteritis of small intestine jejunum and ileum primarily affected necrosis of intestinal villi occurs
32
parvo diagnosis
demonstration of virus specific IgM in serum
33
parvo prophylaxis
vaccination young dog disease- puppies most susceptible isolate diseased dogs
34
parvo treatment
aggressive supportive care with fluids antibiotics dextrose5% K+ and bicarbonate steroids for endotoxic shock
35
canine respiratory disease complex
many infectious agents may produce respiratory disease by themselves or in combination occurs commonly where groups of dogs congregated spread via direct and indirect via fomites antigen disease enters through nasopharynx
36
diseases involved in canine respiratory disease complex
Bordetella bronchiseptica canine parainfluenza virus canine adeno virus canine herpes virus reovirus mycoplasma canine distemper
37
Bordetella bronchispeptica disease
gram negative bacteria most common bacterial isolate in C.U.R.D organism has affinity for and attches to upper airway cilia and decreases motion persists in respiratory tract for up to 14 weeks dry, acute, hacking, persistent cough that lasts 2-14 days some resistant, can still get if vaccinated
38
canine parainfluenza virus
virus that spreads rapidly from dog to dog via aerosol route mild disorder by itself may produce encephalomyelitis associated with younger dogs acute death in puppies
39
canine adeno virus
CAV 1- canine infectious hepatitis (inflammation of the liver) -jaundice yellow mucous membrane CAV 2-infectious tracheobronchitis by themselves both mild infections shedding of virus occurs for up to 8 days post-exposure direct contact
40
canine herpes virus
in newborns, fatal, generalized, hemorrhagic, die acutely organ system shuts down, see spots in liver if animal more than 3 weeks results in mild U.R.D infection life long with intermittent shedding shed when stressed
41
reovirus
virus that does not propose significant problem infrequently isolated in respiratory cultures
42
icterus
yellow mucous membranes also known as jaundice
43
mycoplasmas
opportunistic organisms make ongoing disease worse and longer
44
disinfectants effective against canine respiratory disease complex
10% bleach solution chlorhexidine (nolvasan) virosan benzalkonium chloride
45
clinical signs of canine respiratory disease complex
mild and self limiting more severe when animal is immunocompromised dry, hacking cough and bring up mucous when gag (when touch trachea) ocular discharge may occur difficult to distinguish, especially when dog less than 6 months mortality of 10-20%
46
canine respiratory disease complex diagnosis
sudden dry, hacking cough within 5-10 days after exposure to unfamiliar dog cough easily elicited with tracheal palpitation, discharge from orifices
47
canine respiratory disease complex diagnosis
bacterial, viral or mycoplasmal isolation paired serum titers tracheal wash
48
canine respiratory disease complex treatment
usually self limiting 7-14 days rest and avoidance of stress maybe antibiotics quarantined
49
borreliosis
tick borne inflammatory disease endemic along northeastern seaboard
50
borreliosis etiology
borrelia burgdorferi spirochete, flexible helical cells, motile, gram negative susceptible to routine disinfecting procedures 10-65% ticks harbor spirochete
51
borreliosis transmission
arthropod- bite of infected tick non arthropod- direct contact, may occur by exposure to infected urine
52
borreliosis epidemiology
associated with life cycle of ixodid scapularis (3 host tick) lives in grassy wooded areas and feeds on small and large animals prefer white tailed deer and white footed mice all 3 stages feed on humans, nymphal and adult known to feed on dogs abundant in spring and fall life cycle may take 2 years to complete.
53
borreliosis clinical signs
arthritis, fever, and reoccurring lameness pyrexia and anorexia morbidity- unknown mortality=none
54
borreliosis clinical course
all ages may be infected, increased incidence in dogs 0-5 all breeds susceptible, especially hunting and sporting breeds fever (102-106) anorexia acute onset of lameness reoccurring lameness swollen l.n generalized pain skin lesion
55
borreliosis treatment
response in acute cases is rapid and dramatic within 24 hours, usually complete relief of pain and lameness Oxytetracycline I.V penicillin pain medication usually not necessary
56
borreliosis prevention
no vaccine in humans vaccine for dogs is very good need to limit and control tick exposure
57
borreliosis diagnosis
based on history (location traveled) serology used to determine antibody levels -indirect immunofluorescent antibody test -enzyme linked immunosorbent assay -culture: definitive diagnosis but very difficult and unsuccessful ---grow to know if Gram + or Gram -
58
canine distempter etiology
paramyxovirus
59
canine distempter
highly contagious virla disease labile in environment, dies easily "hard pad disease" hairy paws patches on nose
60
canine distemper transmission
aerosol droplets carriers shed for 2 months
61
canine distemper incubation
3-7 days
62
canine distemper diagnosis
fever w neurologic disease
63
canine distemper treatment
fluids caloric maintence control pyrexia control seizures with tranquilizers antibiotics to prevent secondary infection
