There is a large amount of yellow blood-containing fluid in the pericardium of the diseased sheep, which causes the vascular endothelial cells of the cerebral cortex and glomeruli to attach to the red blood cells, which makes healthy sheep sick because of the blood-sucking and spreading of ticks. The diseased sheep with acute cardioplegia have a body temperature of more than 42 ℃, shortness of breath, short pulse, refusing to eat, molars, tongue protruding, unstable walking and inverted.

The sick sheep with acute amniotic cardiomyopathy had a body temperature of more than 42 ℃, shortness of breath, short pulse, refusing to eat, molars, tongue protruding, unstable walking, falling to the ground and convulsions, and died of convulsions. Autopsy showed epicardial hemorrhage, massive fluid accumulation in pericardium, chest and abdominal cavity, fluid in pharynx, larynx and trachea, and mucosal congestion. There are similar lesions in the stomach and intestines, and congestion and enlargement in other organs.

To do a good job in the prevention and treatment of sheep heart disease, we should first strengthen the management of sheep to prevent colds and fever; secondly, we should do a good job of sheep medicine bath and fly control in the epidemic area. In the initial stage of fever in diseased sheep, sulfamethazine is effective, and oxytetracycline can also be injected intravenously.
