Q

housing, ventilation, & shade practices for best envir health management

A
  1. animals confined indoors need:
    • reliable source of ↑quality food/water
    • good waste management ⟶ breeding ground for dis/vectors
    • adequate vent/humid control:
      • ex: chx: >80% hum ⟶ excess
        moisture ⟶ wet litter ⟶ skin
        infx/lesions = foot pad
        dermatitis

soln: ↓ stocking density, improve vent/hum control, litter material, ↓water = ↓ urine

  1. animals liv outdoors/outdoor access:
    • ↑ risk accidents, predation, dis, death
    • protection from envir/ elements necessary ⟶ partial/full shelter
      • ex: heat stress in cattle

Q

major uses of animal abx

A
  1. growth promotion:
    - indoor intensive livestock facilities
    ⟶ ex: pigs & poultry
    - low sub-therapeutic dose
    - in feed/water
    - thought to decrease GI bac ⟶ more food = more energy to grow
  2. prophylactic
    - reg therapudic dose
    - preop: injury ⟶ 2h prior to op
    - periop: 2h prior surg ⟶ completion (best)
    - postop: completion ⟶ recovery
    - all species: companion, lab, livestock, aquaculture
  3. treatment for clinically diagnosed
    - clinical signs: observable symptoms
    - DVM dx

challenges to traditional approach
- costly - does not always address cause - ignores external factors - rewards procedures over process
26
consequences of abx overuse
AMR 1) abx ⟶ expensive ⟶ raise $$ an prod 2) AMR ↓ avail abx treatments for infxt prod an ⟶ ↑ death/$$ 3) poor welfare 4) zoonotic transfer
27
ex of AMR
1) cattle fed chlortetracycline ⟶ salmonella 2) swine dysentery from Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in pigs - esp intensive farms
28
alternative approaches ↓ AMR
management strategies: 1) ↑ biosecurity measures - isolation & vet exams for new arrivals - isolation for infxt indiv - regular health checks for livestock - PPE - ↓ stocking density ↓ transmission 2) ↓ stress - transporting - overcrowding: ↓ stocking density - sudden changes: diet, temp, abrupt weaning - mixing social groups - poor stockmanship/rough handling **for lab: physiological effects skew data ⟶ incorrect results for scientific research = potentially harmful for humans ⟶ soln: cup method - painful procedures w/ no anesthetic/analgesic 3) waste management, hygiene, & sanitation 4) health plan ⟶ vx program 5) improve detection - better training on clinical symptoms of dis & reg behaviors & subtle changes - early detection ↓ transmission & dis easier to treat/cure/manage - precision livestock farming - definitive diagnosis ex: culture & sensitivity: swan infx area ⟶ culture: lab analyze to identify path ⟶ sensitivity: test existing abx in lab to see affects path ⟶ for aggressive, lasting infx or no tx effective or new infx ⟶ ↓ use of broad-spectrum and & focus on best/most effective one that treats faster ⟶ con: results take a couple days ⟶ ↑ transmission time strategies must be shaped around indiv, facility, species, circumstances - limitations can arise, ex: uncooperative O/O willingness, finances **abx should not be used to compensate for poor management** treatment > cure
29
WHO
World Health Organization: United Nations agency to promote health, keep world safe, & serve the vulnerable - highest policy-setting/governing body - 194 member-states - create recomm/guidelines/policies that MD/DVM must follow - report abx use - surveillance of use & monitoring prescribing
30
FAO
UN Food & Agriculture Org: leads international efforts to defeat hunger goal: achieve food security for all & ensure people have reg access to enough high-quality food to lead active, healthy lives
31
Global Action Plan
↓ abx use in prod an (affects humans most) ⟶ ↓ AMR 1) ↓ use in all classes of med important antimicrobials in prod an 2) complete restriction of med imp antimicrobials in prod an for growth 3) complete restriction of med important antimicrobials in prod an for prevention 4) conditional recommendation: critically imp antimicrobials or highest-priority critically important should not be used to treat prod an exception: DVM provides evidence that drug is only tx option
32
OIE

34
best practice statements
1) antimicrobials or combination developed for humans = critically important unless categorized otherwise by WHO 2) med important antimicrobials not currently used in prod an should not be used in future exception: DVM gives evidence that only tx option
35
veterinary epidemiology
study of frequency, distribution, & determinants of health/dis in pop applications prevent, manage, & eradicate dis concepts applied to many fields of study ⟶ broad multidisciplinary "study of health/dis in animal pop"
36
disciplinary multidisciplinary interdisciplinary transdisciplinary
disciplinary: branch of knowledge multidisciplinary: diff disciplines work together with own knowledge - additive - stays within boundaries - use existing knowledge to solve problems - ex: applying existing human med knowledge in vet med & vice versa interdisciplinary: integrating/combining existing knowledge from diff disciplines - integrative - boundaries removed transdisciplinary: creating new intellectual frameworks/way of thinking to create new fields of study ex: one health

1700s-1800s
- animal plagues - techniques to improve an health 1. farm hygiene 2. improved slaughter techniques
42
late 1800s-1900s
- lab dx - mass immuniz - scient study ⟶ improved underst of path/transmission - evidence-based med
43
contemporary vet med
evidence-based med major techniques: 1. structured recording of an health/dis 2. improved analysis of dis in pop - surveillance - monitoring - National/international dis reporting (OIE)
44
epidemiological investigation
tools/methods for invest, prevent, dx, ↓ transmission, tx an dis to understand: - occurrence: where, when, who - cause - screening/dx - assess effective tx - prevention & prolongation of healthy life
45
epidemiology objectives
1. investigation & control 2. understanding nat hx 3. creating dis-control programs 4. assess impacts of dis on society
46
epid objective 1: invest & control dis examples
foot & mouth dis in sheep - highly contagious virus - divided-hooved an - transmitted through direct contact & inanimate vectors - spread hundreds of miles - invest: tracing an movement & control Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia: resp dis in cattle - mycoplasma bac - endemic in sub-saharan africa
47
epid objective 2: underst nat hx of a dis
- how host/agent interact/coexist w/in a comm w/ other org in an envir - why some an get infx & others don't factors impacting agen: climar, envir, geo distribution - life hx cycle
48
epid objective 3: dis-control programs
based on knowledge about: - prevalence - factors associate w/ occurrence - resources required to control epid techniques required: - direct action: strategies for prevention, control, & eradication - monitoring: routine assessment in a pop - surveillance: program effectiveness
49
epid objective 4: assessment of impacts on society
costs/benefits of control: - economic loss - imp of health to industry - an welfare - ex: mastitis cattle: inflammatory infx of udder & teet ⟶ control prog for 15% not 1%
50
vet epid in practice: bats
- Bats harbor more viruses lethal to humans than any other mammal - Expanding agriculture to accommodate the land and resources required for increasing human populations is bringing humans into close contact with the animals, and this shrinking of distance is increasing the risk of spillover from bats to the villagers
51
path agents
- org that impairs norm fx - manifests in distinguising signs/symp - microscopic prions: proteins causing fatal neurogenative dis - ex: bovine spongiform encephalopathy aka Mad Cow virus: core genetic material can only replicate inside living host - ex: avian influenza ⟶ resp dis affecting poultry bac: single-celled microbes - can help/harm - large variety - ex: mastitis ⟶ tx abx fungus: multicellular microbes ⟶ parasitic or symbiotic - ex: ringworm: skin fungle infx in cattle, sheep, dogs, cats protozoa: single-celled microbe - free-living or parasitic - potentially fatal - ex: coccidiosis in chx ⟶ parasite damages intestine sys multicellular parasites: - helminths = worms - arthropods attach to skin: ticks, fleas, lice - ex: roundworms in beed/dairy cattle, sheep, goats, dogs, cats
52
path agent characteristics
infectivity: ability to infxt host ⟶ how good are they are - how easy is it for them - how long does it take pathogeny: ability to cause dis - not all hosts show clinical signs - disease = path cause enough damage to show clinical signs ⟶ otherwise just carriers virulence: degree of severity a) low: - longer to infxt & show clinical signs - ↑ risk of transmission b) high: - kills host quickly - severe - ↓ chance of transmit ⟶ less time to spread pathogens want to survive ⟶ killing host quickly ↓ their lifespan
53
epidemiological triad
goal: to understand, interconnect, & distrupt ≥ 1 corner host: what types are targets - species: not all pathogens infxt all species - immune fx: ↓ = ↓ risk - age: young & old most susceptible sex, breed, lifecycle stage, nutritional status envir: where is dis occurring - external factors - facility - biosecurity - water source - system management - contact w/ wildlife - climate - seasonality agent: characteristics - ideal host targets - speed of infx - transmission methods - survival needs - vulnerability
54
transmission
movement of path from 1 infxt an ⟶ 1 or group of susceptible in an infxt pop
55
modes of pathological transmission
1) direct: - horizontal: direct contact w/ infxt - vertical: offspring - prevention: isolation & health checks 2) indirect a) **vehicle** - water & food - airborne ⟶ dust, fine droplets (sneeze, cough) - ex: **Porcine reproductive & resp syndrome (PRRS)** - prevention: vx, biosec, management b) **mechanical vector**: vector NOT infxt ⟶ carry agent btwn hosts - arthropods - ex: **pinkeye (moraxella bovis)** - prevention: vx, management, bio c) **biological vector**: vector is infxt, not necessarily harmed ⟶ carry agent btwn hosts - arthropods - ex: **heartworm (dirofilaria immitus)** - prevention: vx, biosec, management d) **fomite** - ex: **avian influenza** - prevention: biosec
56
Porcine reproductive & resp syndrome (PRRS)
- mode of transmission: indirect vehicle - airborne - virus - nasal secretions, urine, feces, & other bodily fluids - can travel up to 2 miles - common in US & all age groups prevention: biosec, management, vx
57
Pinkeye (Moraxella bovis)
- mode of transmission: indirect mechanical vector - by flies - common & diff to control - painful ⟶ ulcers & blindness prevention: vx, fly pop control
58
heartworm (dirofilaria immitus)
- mode of transmission: indirect biological vector - mosquitos pick up blood infxt w/ larvae (microfilia) ⟶ larvae develops ⟶ mosquito infxts new dog - adult worms live in heard, lungs, & blood vessels treatment & prevention: anti-parasitic mx
59
avian influenza Type A virus
- mode of transmision: indirect fomite - viruses shed in bird droppings - veterinarians transfer virus to new farms by stepping in droppings & wearing same boots prevention: biosecurity measures
59
nat hx of a dis
1. stage of susceptibility: prior to exposure influenced by: - immune fx - age - envir - primary prevention 2. stage of pre-symptomatic dis: after to exposure - infxt but sub-clinical - pathologic changes - may always stay subclinical - routine screening = important - secondary prevention 3. stage of clinical dis: from subclinical to clinical - onset of symptoms - observable changes in physiology/behavior - tertiary prevention 4. stage of disibility or recovery prevention = best
60
incubation period
exposure to pathogen ⟶ evident clinical dis
61
latent period
exposure to pathogen ⟶ pathological changes
62
clinical signs vs symptoms
clinical signs: observable changes symptoms: subjective - assessing behavior - interactions: avoidance/approach - diff responses to pain
63
screenings vs dx testing
screenings: - detect dis during subclinical stage - more effecting in ↓ transmission dx testing: - during clinical stage - confirming diagnoses or figuring out
64
levels of prevention
**primary**: avoiding dis development ⟶ ↑ host resistance/↑ susceptibility - health promotion/detection - prophylactics - ex: — **vx** — **routine screenings/exams** — **biosec (PPE, hygiene)** **secondary**: early detection, ↓ transmission, ↑ chance of recovery/tx success - early detection - before clinical signs - better economically & for ani health/wellness - ex: **yearly fecal tests** **tertiary**: stop/↓ dis progression & minimize risk of transmission - avoid getting to this point - dis established ⟶ clinical signs/symptoms - tx & rehab - $$ & resource intensive - an health/welfare compromised - ex: **mastitis tx abx**
65
temporal patterns
sporadic: occurs occasionally in population - prevalence is 0 - mad cow dis endemic: habitually present at expected level - giardia epidemic: ↑ level not predicted/expected - avian flu pandemic: widespread/international - swine flu - covid
66
vaccine vs vaccination
vaccine: prepared immunogenic material to induce immunity against path organism vaccination: intentional administration of (semi-)harmless forms of path to induce specific immune response to protect against later exposure **how we take advantage of our body's normal immune response**
67
inside vaccines:
1. micro-org ⟶ live, attenuated, inactivated, or parts 2. adjuvant - mostly in inactivated vx 3. preservatives: formaldehyde, gentamycin, dyes biologic: regulated by USDA not FDA ⟶ okay for organic
68
types of vx
1. live/modified 2. killed/inactivated 3. recombinant
69
live/modified vx
attenuated: ↓ virulence/weakened - replicate in animal & shed to others benefits: - full immune response - stimulate cell-mediated & humoral immune response ⟶ B & T cells - memory from 1 dose = ↓ frequency - long-lasting safety: - can induce dis ⟶ reversion to virulence - may cause abortion
70
killed/inactivated vx
stimulate humoral immunity (antibodies) - don't replicate in animal benefits: - safer ⟶ no reversion to virulence cons: - require priming w/ live vx - require refrigeration - adjuvant irritating (granuloma formula) - difficult to apply ⟶ must injxt every indiv parenteral - expensive (encapsulation) - shorter immunity ⟶ 1-2 yrs ⟶ require multiple doses for memory
71
recombinant vx
live vector carries gene from pathogen encoding protein of immunogenic interest ⟶ generates immunity to gene of interest (GOI) & vector benefits: - long-lived immunity - very safe - minimal/negligible secondary effects cons: - require liquid N storage - must not have previous immunity ⟶ neutralizes vector immediately - applied in-ovo, I'm, SQ (poultry) - expensive
72
routes of vx administration
- parenteral: IM, SQ, ID ⟶ dip into vx ⟶ w/in skin - mucosal: oral, nasal, rectal, ocular, vaginal ex: spray, drinking water, gel - epidermal & transcutaneous: first layer of skin vs through skin ex: wing web - in-ovo (chickens) - fetal (mammals) ⟶ unheard of
72
vx immune system timeline
innate response ⟶ immediate humoral response: 10-14 das after 1° - max immune response boosters: stimulate max response
73
vaccination vs immunization
vaccination ≠ immunization - act of vaccinating does to lead to immunity
74
key to immunologic memory
re-vaccinate
75
bacterin
killed bacteria ex: - leptospirosis - salmonella
76
toxoid
inactivated bac toxin - requires 10-14d to develop acquired immunity - acts as antigen ex: - clostridium perfrigens - tetanus
77
antitoxins
horse/sheep-derived serum antibodies - not technically vx - passive immunization - immediate protection ex: - clostridium perfrigens - tetanus
78
attenuated or modified live examples
whole org ⟶ virulence is ↓ by adaptation to other host/org/envir - bac: Brucella abortus - virus: IBR, BVD, BRSV, PI-3
79
recombinants examples
live vector + insert ex: - HVT + VP2 - immunity against Marek's & Bursal dis
80
vx failure causes
1. an already infxt & incubating dis - 10-14d - stress/immunosuppression - existing infx accelerated by vx 2. ineffective: denatured by heat, UV, lack of cold-chain storage 3. animal state at time: - maternal antibody interference ⟶ neutralizes vx - stress/immunosuppression makes infx easier to overcome ⟶ BDV virus ⟶ Se & Cu deficiency - pregnant ↓ t-cell fx 4. too high dose can overcome immune response 5. application failure 6. vx didn't stimulate correct type of response - antibodies (B cell response) = extracellular org ⟶ killed products - cytotoxic cells (Tc cells) = intracellular agents 7. new strain ⟶ vx not cross-protective ⟶ ineffective 8. path stereotype diversity ⟶ wrong choice ⟶ ineffective
81
passive immunity
transfer of antibodies from resistant (immune) ⟶ susceptible (non-immune) ex: - colostral antibodies & lactogenic immunity - antiserum - plasma transfusion - yolk sac
82
advantages of passive immunity
advantages: immediate protection disadvantages: - short-lived (~3w) - expensive - only involves 1/2 the immune response (humoral) - interacts w/ early vx
83
adjuvants
immunological agent that increases antigenic response - enhances inflammation - prolongs antigen persistence - delivers co-stimulatory signals - activates cells of immune system - steers response to Th2 or Th1 - delivers antigens to MHC classes I or II
84
vx strategies
exotic: - rapid dx - eradication - quarantine - compensation, stamp out, disposal - surveillance - biosecurity - prevention endemic: - rapid dx - control - quarantine - vx - surveillance - biosecurity - prevention **BIOSECURITY MANAGEMENT = BEST STRATEGY** - vx comes 2nd ⟶ management tool
85
innate immunity
- initial discrimination between self/non-self - non-specific - from birth - fast - mediated by cells, barriers, chemicals, proteins - pattern recognition - no specificity - no memory ex: - temp/pH ⟶ hostile envir - barriers: - skin - feathers - cilia - mucosa -microflora: biological metabolites that make physical layers of hostile envir - neutrophils & macrophages - encounter, activation, attack, & memory
86
adaptive immunity
- acquired - specific - 2nd line of defense - slow ⟶ 4d+ - mediated by lymphocytes: B & T - memory - specialization ex: - cell-mediated: T cells ⟶ thymus derived - B cells ⟶ bursa (chx) or bone marrow derived - antibodies IgM, IgG, IgA, IgE
87
immune response timeline
immediate innate: 0-4h induced innate: 4h-4d adaptive response: 4d+
88
mechanisms of innate immunity
1) barriers - physical: skin & mucosa - chemical: anti-microbes in skin/mucosa secretion - biotic: normal flora on surface of skin/mucosa - anatomic: - BBB - blood-placenta barrier - blood-thymus barrier 2) humoral response: mediated by antibodies secreted by plasma cells 3) cells - Natural killer cells - dendritic cells - mast cells - phagocytes: endocytosis & phagocytosis ⟶ identify, engulf, & destroy a) monocytes ⟶ blood b) neutrophils ⟶ white blood cells c) macrophages ⟶ tissue
89
process of adaptive immune response
1) antigen recognition 2) induction of response 3) regulation of response - over-response can kill/damage org
