Respiratory Diseases of Grower/Finisher Pigs Flashcards
3 organisms mixed in Atrophic rhinitis
Bordetella bronchiseptica,
Pasteurella multocida,
Haemophilus spp.
what dz: Deviation of the snout (lateral, dorsal)
Destruction of nasal turbinates
Atrophic rhinitis
what dz: dog sitting position
PRRS
what dz: dog thorax conformation
circovirus (PCV infection)
what dz: Fibrinopurulent exudation
Glasser’s Disease
CA of Glasser’s Disease
Haemophilus parasuis
what dz: Bread and butter heart
Glasser’s Disease
isolated from pigs with fibrinous polyserositis
Glasser’s Disease
ubiquitous:
Glasser’s Disease,
Rotavirus,
Porcine Circovirus infection
lesions are concentrated on the apical portions of the lung
Mycoplasma pneumonia
how many serotypes in glasser’s
15
2 interactions with Synergism → severe damage
bacteria-virus
virus-bacteria
Often difficult to diagnose because of the presence of primary and secondary pathogens; coinfections, mixed infections, and superinfections
Porcine Respiratory Disease Complex (PRDC)
what dz: “Thimbling”,
shedding of claws, “tiger-heart” in piglets (myocarditis)
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD)
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) primary site of infection
Pharyngeal area
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) incubation of direct contact
3-9d
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) incubation of airborne
4-14d
3 serotypes of FMD:
O, A, C
affects cloven-hoofed mammals;
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD)
