What type of pneumonia is commonly associated with shipping fever complex
cranioventral bronchopneumonia
Two major differences in the clinical appearance of animals with a bacterial vs. viral infection
Viral:
higher fever than bacterial
viral infected will be more alert (bacterial= more depressed)
Where does a virus remain latent if it’s:
1) alpha herpes
2) gamma herpes
1) CNS tissue (BHV-1)
2) lymphoid tissue (OHV-1/AHV-1)
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) is caused by?
BHV-1 (1.1, 1.2a & 1.2b)
These clinical signs are indicative of what disease:
- -high fever
- -clear nasal discharge that progresses to mucopurlent as disease progresses
- -increased BV sounds (but no other abnormal noises)
- -conjunctivitis with ocular discharge
IBR (red nose)
T/F: Pulmonic pasteurellosis may be a sequel to IBR and the two diseases may occur simultaneously
TRUE
