Test 3: 51-53: bovine bacterial Flashcards
5 bacterial pathogens that cause respiratory distress in cattle
mannheimia (pasturella) haemolytica (gram -)
pasturella multocida (gram -)
histiophilus (haemophilus) somni (gram -)
mycoplasma (no cell wall= no gram)
trueperella (archanobacterium) pyogenes (gram +)
SS BECCLAR DAMNT stands for
gram +
strep
staph
bacillus- anthranx- sporulation
erysipelas
clostridium
corynebacterium
listeria
actinomyces
rhodococcus
dermatophilus congolensis- railroad tract derm
arcanobacterium
mycobacterium- johnes
nocardia- orangejuice mastitis
trueperella (arcanobacterium) pyogenes
endotoxin is made by
gram - bacteria breakdown of cell wall LPS
lyses neutrophils →starts cascade that destroys lung tissue
exotoxin of bacteria
leukotoxin
Damages alveolar macrophages, neutrophils and vascular endothelium
BRD stands for
bovine respiratory disease
BRD is caused by
stress- reduces host defenses
virus- damage upper airway
bacteria- invade lower airway
bronchopneumonia
bovine respiratory disease
3 bacteria that cause BRD→ acute bronchopneumonia
mannheimia hemolytica
pasturella multocida
histophilus somni
bovine respiratory disease → acute bronchopenumonia
BRD clinical signs with acute bronchopneumonia
shipping fever- may have fever but as they get more sick can’t regulate body temp
toxic animals- purple mucus membranes
painful respiration- pleuritis- do not want to move
sudden death
fibrinous bronchopneumonia- cheesy
anteroventral lung consolidation
+/- bolbus emphysema of lungs
bovine respiratory disease- caused by bacteria- mannheimia
treatment of BRD acute bronchopneumonia
antibiotics- can be given when viral as protective measure from secondary bacterial infection
reduce stress
acute bronchopenumonia
BRD acute necropsy results
fibrinous bronchopneumonia
R sided > L side anteroventral lung consolidation
+/- bulbous emphysema of lung
bacterial infection
chronic bronchopneumonia BRD is caused by
pasturell multocida
trueperella pyogenes- abscess formation
+/- histophilus somni
+/- mycoplasma bovis
— causes abcesses in large animals
trueperella pyogenes
chronic bronchopneumonia BRD presents as
slow growing
moist productive cough
abnormal lung sounds
difficulty breathing
chronic BRD: pasturella multocida
necropsy of chronic BRD will show
lung consolidation
crackles is caused by
acute pneumonia
did inhale causes compressed/collapsed bronchials or alveolar to pop open
