Lung aspiration disorders in bovines are invariably diagnosed as infectious aspiration pneumonias. There is a distinct differentiation between aspiration pneumonia and aspiration pneumonitis in humans that can be applied to bovines. The nature and quantity of the aspirate can result in differing pathogeneses which can require differing therapeutic approaches. Whilst blood gases were important in detecting and prognosticating lung problems, changes in barometric pressure with altitude have to be considered when interpreting partial pressures of oxygen. Anatomical differences in the lungs of bovines can explain why this species is more prone to certain pneumonic problems. Pulmonary physiotherapy is important in treating lung disorders in humans and should be considered as an adjunct therapy in bovine respiratory conditions. A case work-up was used to highlight some of the points discussed in this article.
牛的肺部吸入性疾病总是被诊断为感染性吸入性肺炎。人类的吸入性肺炎和吸入性肺炎之间存在明显区别，这也适用于牛。吸入物的性质和数量会导致不同的发病机制，进而需要不同的治疗方法。虽然血气分析在检测和预测肺部问题方面很重要，但在解释氧分压时必须考虑海拔高度引起的气压变化。牛肺部的解剖学差异可以解释为什么这个物种更容易出现某些肺炎问题。肺部物理治疗在治疗人类肺部疾病中很重要，在牛的呼吸道疾病中也应被视为辅助治疗方法。通过一个病例分析来突出本文讨论的一些要点。
