Q

It involves that it determination of the cause (etiology) of the disease, the understanding of the mechanism of its development (pathogenesis), the structural changes associated with the disease process (morphological changes), and the functional consequences of those changes.

  3. Parasitic diseases
    • trematodes, fascioliasis and paramphystoma.
    • nematodes, strongylosis, gastrophilus and habronemiasis.
    • protozoa, babesiosis, theileriosis, trypanosomiasis and toxoplasmosis.

Q

Directly as by direct contact or by droplet infection.
Indirectly through an intermediate plant or animal host, vectors are in animate materials.
Example: fmd, cattle plague, brucellosis, epizootic lymphangitis, equine influenza.
Example: contagious skin necrosis, dermatophytosis, mange

A

Contagious disease

17
Q

4 diseases according to course:

A

Peracute
Acute
Subacute
Chronic

18
Q

A very rapid in their course (few hours or days)as anthrax and most of clostridial diseases

A

Peracute

19
Q

Have short course but more longer than peracute (few days, 1-2 weeks) as colibacillosis, fmd, three day sickness and strangles.

A

Acute

20
Q

Course is less than acute (few weeks).

A

Subacute

21
Q

Course is extended over a long period (months or years) due to slow growth of MO inside the host body as TB.

A

Chronic

22
Q

This is appear in individual cases and appear without regularity in a population unit.
In section exist in the population and only occasionally some animals exhibited signs of disease.

A

Sporadic disease

23
Q

A disease which occurs with predictable regularity in a population unit with minor fluctuation in its frequency pattern over the time.
Example: fmd, fascioliasis, rvf

A

Endemic or enzootic disease

24
Q

Group of the diseases that occur by an accidental level in the population.
Affecting many animals and rapidly spread.
Example: birds flu, chicungunia

A

Epidemic or epizootic disease

25
Q

It is a very large scale epidemic usually involving several countries over a wide geographic region at the same time.
Example: bovine tv, brucellosis

A

Pandemic disease

26
Q

Spread of disease
Infectious diseases can be spread by:

A

Direct contact between animals
Germs in feed and water
By faeces and urine from sick animals
By flies, tick, lice, and fleas
By dirty housing our shelters

P.S
Young and old animals become infected more easily

27
Q

Preventing infectious diseases:

A
  • Animals, like humans, must be clean in order to be healthy. The animals must be provided with clean feed, water, bedding, and shelter.
  • Sick animals should be kept separate from the others.
  • some diseases can be cured by drugs.
  • vaccination can protect animals against some diseases.
  • dead animals and ways should be disposed of properly.
28
Q

Preventing non infectious diseases

A
  • The chronic non-infectious disease may not be recognized as a disease.
  • The affected animals may not die but will not produce as much milk, meat or wool, or work as well as could be expected.
  • improve feed, water, mineral and vitamin supplies we will find the way to control the non infectious disease.
29
Q

Generally are long lasting and progress slowly, and thus they are sometimes also referred to as chronic diseases.

A

Noncommunicable disease

30
Q

They can arise from environmental exposures or from genetically determined abnormalities, which may be evident at birth or which may become apparent later in life.

A

Non-communicable disease

31
Q

4 major types of non-communicable disease:

A

Cancer
Cardiovascular disease
Heart attack
Stroke

32
Q

2 Chronic respiratory disease:

A

Asthma
Diabetes mellitus

33
Q

Diseases are those transmitted from one organism to another.

A

Communicable or contagious disease

34
Q

Are diseases caused in the host by infecting with living, and therefore replicating, microorganism, such as animal parasites, bacteria, fungi, are viruses.

A

Infectious disease

35
Q

Type of disease that leads to cause of death.

A

Infectious disease

36
Q

4 types of microorganism:

A

Parasites
Bacteria
Fungi
Viruses
