Definition of Chronic Respiratory Disease in Poultry Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD) also called air sacculitis is an infection of chicken and turkeys caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum . The disease is transmitted in eggs or by indirect contact The disease is characterized by respiratory signs and lesions. Once started it follows a prolonged course in a flock. Concurrent infections such as infectious bronchitis virus, Newcastle disease virus, Escherichia coli , Pasteurella multocida and Haemophilus paragallinarum or increased level of dust in the environment predispose to CRD. Signs and Symptoms of Chronic Respiratory Disease in Poultry Signs of CRD in a flock develop slowly and are usually manifested by drop in egg and meat production. They show varying degrees of respiratory distress, with slight to marked rales , difficulty in breathing, coughing, and/or sneezing. The lesions include airsacculitis , fibrinous perihepatitis and adhesive pericarditis . Chickens Infected with MG Have Nasal and Eye Discharges Pharmacological treatment of Chronic Respiratory Disease in Poultry Tetracycline 2.5 to 10 mg/kg, PO in drinking water q 24 h for 3-5days, or Tiamulin 10%, 1:300-600 diluted in drinking water for 5 days, or Erythromycin 1: 10000 liters of drinking water for 3 days, or Tylosin, 0.5% in drinking water, or Enrofloxacin 15 mg/kg, IM, q12h or other fluoroquinolones can be given in the feed or water for 5-7 days; however, relapses are common Activity: Brainstorming What are the prevention measures for Chronic Respiratory Disease??

Definition of Chronic Respiratory Disease in Poultry Fowl cholera, ( Avian Pasteurellosis or avian hemorrhagic septicemia) is a contagious bacterial disease of poultry characterized by septicemia, sudden onset with high morbidity and mortality Chronic and asymptomatic infections may also occur. It is caused by Pasteurella multocida . Transmission occurs by secretions from carrier birds, infected droppings, cannibalism of dead birds, and contaminated water, feed, equipment, or clothing. The organism is primarily excreted from mouth, nose, and conjunctiva of diseased birds that contaminate their environment Signs and Symptoms of Fowl Cholera In acute disease There is, fever, depression, anorexia, mucoid discharge from the mouth, ruffled feathers, diarrhea, bluish discoloration of the head, increased respiratory rate and sudden death in the flock may occur In chronic disease Swelling of the joints, footpad, wattles, or tendon sheaths over the caudal portion of the hock joint could be observed. Pharmacological Treatment of Fowl Cholera Sulphonamides : 0.5-1% (500mg-1gm/kg) in feed or 0.1% (100mg/liter) in drinking water First line treatment sulphonamides include Sulphadimethoxazole , Sulphaquinoxalene , Sulphamethazine and sulphaquinonxalene Sulphamerazine 143 mg/kg PO (0.5% in feed) or 0.4% in drinking water Sulfaquinoxaline sodium, or T rimethoprimsulfadiazine 1:5, 15 mg/kg for 5 days in feed or water Pharmacological Treatment of Fowl Cholera Cont.…. Chlortetracycline 10%, 20-60 mg/kg, daily in feed for 5 to 7 days or should be continued until signs of the disease are no longer apparent. Amoxicillin T rihydrate water-soluble crystal, 20 mg/kg in drinking water, once per day for 3-5 days. Activity: Brainstorming What are the preventive measures for Fowl Cholera ? Prevention and Control of Fowl Cholera Good Sanitation Rodent and predator control Proper disposal of dead birds Vaccination with adjuvant bacteriocins Prevention and Control of Fowl Cholera Cont.… Adjuvant bacteriocions are widely used and generally effective; Autogenous bacterions are recommended when polyvalent bacterins are found to be ineffective Thus, it is important to know the most prevalent serotypes within an area to choose the right bacterins Attenuated live vaccines are available for administration in drinking water to turkeys and by wing-web inoculation to chickens. These live vaccines can effectively induce immunity against different serotypes of P multocida They are recommended for use in healthy flocks only Key Points Fowl cholera is an infectious disease in domestic fowl, waterfowl and other avian species. It is manifested either in acute septicaemic form with a high morbidity and death rates or as chronic local forms (independently or secondary to acute ones) Commonly observed signs are anorexia, ruffled feathers, oral and nasal mucus discharge, cyanosis and white or greenish watery mucoid diarrhoea Key Points Cont … Sulfonamides and antibiotics are commonly used and early treatment with adequate dosages are important Good management practices, including a high level of biosecurity, are essential to prevention Rodents, wild birds, pets, and other animals that may be carriers of P multocida must be excluded from poultry houses Evaluation What is Fowl Cholera? What are the common signs and symptoms Fowl Cholera? What is the pharmacological treatment of Fowl Cholera? What are the control measures against Fowl Cholera?

Treatment , Prevention and Control of Fowlpox There is no specific treatment available Vaccinate the remaining flocks with an attenuated fowlpox virus of high immunogenicity and low pathogenicity Control mosquitoes Key Points Fowlpox (FP) is a viral disease in hens, turkeys and many other birds, characterized by cutaneous lesions on the feather-less skin and/or diphtheritic lesions of mucous coats of the upper alimentary and respiratory tract. The cutaneous form of fowlpox is characterized by nodular lesions on various parts of the unfeathered skin of chickens and on the head and upper neck of turkeys Where fowlpox is prevalent, chickens and turkeys should be vaccinated with a live-embryo or cell-culture-propagated virus vaccine.
