Prevention and treatment of pneumonia in cultured masked palm civet

Pneumonia is a common respiratory disease, which is an acute or chronic inflammation of the bronchi and lungs. According to the disease and the location of pneumonia, pneumonia can be divided into lobar pneumonia and bronchopneumonia, masked palm civet bronchopneumonia is more common. Masked palm civet often causes colds due to sudden changes in climate, cold stimulation, air pollution, feeding and management disorders that reduce the body's resistance, and then develops into tracheitis and bronchopneumonia. The incidence of pneumonia is high. Canine distemper, pasteurellosis and so on, can be associated with pneumonia. (clinical symptoms) at the beginning of the disease, showing cold and acute bronchitis symptoms, dry cough, followed by wet cough, auscultation with a variety of sounds, leading to pneumonia. The sick beaver is depressed in spirit, does not want to move, lies down, loses appetite or abstinence, cough aggravates, serous or purulent nasal fluid flows out, body temperature rises to more than 40 ℃, nose is dry, mucous membrane is congested and red, breathing is superficial and difficult, dry and wet sounds can be heard in the lungs, and the heart beats faster. The course of the disease is 10-15 days. If it is not treated in time, it often ends in death. The pathological changes of pneumonia are in the pulmonary parenchyma of the diseased bronchial branch area, especially in the anterior and lower part of the lung, showing one or a group of pulmonary lobules as a unit, the lung tissue is solid, air-free, dark red at first, and then grayish red. Cut the diseased lung tissue and put it into the water to sink. The lung section has different colors due to the different degree of pathological changes, bloody or serous fluid is discharged during compression, and compensatory emphysema can be seen almost all around the inflammatory focus. (diagnosis 1 can be diagnosed according to climate change, clinical symptoms, occurrence of infectious diseases and pathological changes. Prevention and treatment of pneumonia: antibacterial and anti-inflammatory. Choose drugs according to the cause of the disease and the type of bacteria. Amikacin sulfate (amikacin sulfate) 2 ml intramuscular injection, twice a day for 3 days; compound sulfamethoxazole injection 2 ml, Feishu acupoint injection Cephalosporins can also be injected intravenously at 10-15 mg / kg body weight or ampicillin (ampicillin) 5-10 mg / kg body weight, or penicillin G potassium salt 40 000 units / kg body weight, combined with intramuscular injection of amikacin or gentamicin 1.5 mg / kg body weight, twice a day for 5 days. At ordinary times, we should pay attention to good hygiene, keep the raccoon house and activity site dry, keep warm in winter and keep the air fresh in the raccoon house. Feed a nutritionally comprehensive diet to enhance its own resistance and reduce the incidence of pneumonia.
