3 components of respiratory disease in cows
management
viral diseases
bacterial disease
there should be a minimum of — air changes per hour for proper ventilation
4
2 functions of ventilation
remove CO2
remove heat and moisture
natural vs mechanical ventilation systems
natural: open roof vents- allow hot air to rise and exit, can cause drafts
mechanical- fans in closed barns, inlets=outlets
— are used for ventilating group housing for calves
positive pressure tubes- push Co2 and warm air out and prevent draft
three pulmonary defense mechanisms
mucociliary defense system
pulmonary alveolar macrophages
secretory system
mucociliary defense system will —
warms and filters incoming air
removes dust and organism
very efficient- 90% effective
— are found in the lower respiratory tract and eat pathogens
— efficiency
pulmonary alveolar macrophages
50% efficiency
neutrophils only enter in response to infection
secretory system of the respiratory tract work by activating — immunity
cell mediated immunity
and
local immunity: IgA and interferon(viral response)
serum AB less important
where is accessory lung lobe in cows
right lung
right cranial bronchus comes off — in the cow
before tracheal bifurcation
anatomy of cow lungs
left side: 2 lobes (cranial has two parts)
right side: 4 lobes (cranial has two parts), cranial, middle, ventral and accessory
basal lung metabolism uses — bovine lung capacity
45%
horses and humans use 20% of basal- need to take big breath to hear
what side to listen to cows lungs
right sound- use more of lung to breathe, may seem harsh
narrow lung field: 13 ribs
4 major bovine viral respiratory diseases
IBR: infectious bovine rhinotracheitis
PI-3: parainfluenza Type 3
BRSV: Bovine respiratory syncytial virus
BVDV: bovine viral diarrhea virus
