“…Traumatic pericarditis is extremely common in developing countries, possibly due to unregulated small‐scale farming and unsatisfactory standards of animal management and feeding (Misk and others 1984). Pregnancy and parturition may aggravate the condition in cattle (Peek and McGuirk 2007).…”

Clinicopathological and ultrasonographic findings in 40 water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) with traumatic pericarditis

Forty buffaloes with traumatic pericarditis were examined to characterise the ultrasonographic findings in buffaloes with traumatic pericarditis, determine the extent of the lesions and assess the prognosis. The most noticeable clinical presentations were presternal oedema (73 per cent) and jugular and mammary vein distension (88 per cent). Laboratory findings included neutrophilic leucocytosis, elevated total protein concentration, hypoalbuminaemia, hypergammaglobulinaemia and increased concentration of free fatty acids. Ultrasonographically, fluid in the pericardium appeared as either mild or massive anechoic accumulations containing fibrin threads or were imaged as homogenous, echogenic pericardial effusions. Moderate to severe corrugation of the reticular wall was observed. Deposits of fibrinous tissue interspersed with fluid pockets were seen between the reticulum, dorsal ruminal sac and diaphragm. Perireticular and mediastinal abscesses were imaged and appeared as echogenic lines with anechoic, echogenic, homogenous or heterogeneous contents. Additional ultrasonographic findings included hepatomegaly, dilation of the caudal vena cava, hepatic and portal veins, ascites, echogenic pleural effusions and vegetations of the tricuspid, mitral and pulmonary valves. The ultrasonographic findings were confirmed at postmortem examination.

“…Venous thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, and septic thrombophlebitis are frequently associated with traumatic or repeated venipuncture in cattle. 8 Common predisposing factors that increase the risk of venous injury include the type of needle or catheter, inappropriate preparation of the site, improper restraint of the animal, inexperience of the operator, and inoculation of irritant substances. 8,10 The jugular vein is the most commonly damaged blood vessel following venipuncture in dairy cattle, followed by the cranial superficial epigastric vein (CSEV) and the tail or caudal vein.…”

Cranial superficial epigastric vein phlebitis and septicemia in dairy cows in Brazil

et al. 2019

Cases of cranial superficial epigastric vein (CSEV) phlebitis with subsequent septicemia were observed in dairy farms in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Autopsy on 4 affected cows, from 2 farms, revealed CSEV thrombophlebitis with perivascular abscesses, pulmonary abscesses, valvular endocarditis, arthritis, thromboembolic nephritis, and renal infarcts. Microscopic examination revealed fibrosing and lymphoplasmacytic phlebitis with occasional endothelial loss, subendothelial areas of necrosis, and abundant fibrin deposition. Trueperella pyogenes, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus were isolated from lesions of 3 different cows. Thrombophlebitis of the CSEV is a rare condition in dairy cows; however, it has become more frequent in dairy farms in southeastern Brazil after repeated venipuncture of this vein, likely with contaminated needles used for administration of oxytocin.

ForewordForeword-antimicrobial prescribing guidelines for dairy cattle Antimicrobials are one of the most important medical developments of the 20th century and are used to safely treat many common infections in humans and animals. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when the microorganisms that cause infection, such as bacteria and viruses, become resistant to medical treatment with antimicrobial agents. Australia was one of the first nations to embark on a comprehensive reform process aimed at protecting humans and animals from the harmful effects of AMR and has remained at the forefront of antimicrobial stewardship globally.AMR is recognised as a global health priority due to its adverse effects on public health, animal health, welfare and production, and the economy. Inappropriate use of antimicrobials in humans and animals has accelerated the process. A shared One Health approach, working across the human, animal and environmental health sectors, and promoting antimicrobial stewardship across a range of industries, is a key component of how we address AMR.As a major exporter of high-quality food products, Australia has taken a proactive approach to managing food safety issues, including the use of antimicrobials. Antimicrobials are an essential tool for dairy farmers and veterinarians to ensure the health and welfare of animals in their care. Overall, the Australian dairy industry has very low antimicrobial usage compared to other countries and holds a favourable r...
