OVERVIEW
Q fever is a zoonotic disease caused by Coxiella burnetii. Farm animals and pets are the main reservoirs of infection.
INFECTION
Cats become infected by ingestion or inhalation of organisms from contaminated carcases of farm animals, or tick bites. Infection is common, as shown by several serological studies.
CLINICAL SIGNS
Experimentally, fever, anorexia and lethargy have been noted. In the field, infection usually remains subclinical. Abortion might occur. C burnetii has been isolated from the placenta of aborting cats, but also from cats experiencing normal parturition.
DIAGNOSIS
Infection with C burnetii can be diagnosed by isolation of the agent or serology.
PREVENTION
Most important is the potential zoonotic risk. Cats suspected of having been exposed to C burnetii might shed organisms during parturition. Wearing gloves and a mask when attending parturient or aborting cats can minimise the risk of infection. Tick prevention is recommended.
概述
Q热是一种由伯氏考克斯体引起的人畜共患病。农场动物和宠物是主要的感染源。
感染
猫通过摄入或吸入来自受污染农场动物尸体的病原体或被蜱叮咬而感染。几项血清学研究表明，感染很常见。
临床症状
在实验中，已观察到发热、厌食和嗜睡。在实际情况中，感染通常仍为亚临床状态。可能会发生流产。伯氏考克斯体已从流产猫的胎盘中分离出来，但也从正常分娩的猫中分离出来。
诊断
伯氏考克斯体感染可通过病原体分离或血清学诊断。
预防
最重要的是潜在的人畜共患病风险。疑似接触过伯氏考克斯体的猫在分娩期间可能会排出病原体。照料分娩或流产的猫时戴手套和口罩可将感染风险降至最低。建议预防蜱虫。
