This study was performed with the objective of identifying the proportion of emerging and endemic livestock diseases using cross sectional survey.
A total of 285 clinically diseased animals were presented to a veterinary clinic and diagnosed tentatively based on history, clinical sign, and simple laboratory diagnostics and from the study, actinomycosis (15.83%), mastitis (15%), tick infestation (10%), respiratory diseases (9.16%) and gastro intestinal parasitism (9.16%) were confirmed with higher proportion in large animals. Pasteurollosis (38, 31%), contagious ecthyma (12, 10%), tick infestation (9, 0%), mite infestation (9, 10%), sheep and goat pox (9, 10%), and gastrointestinal parasitism (9, 17%) were frequently encountered diseases in sheep and goat respectively. In equids, back sore, epizootic lymphangitis and lameness accounted a proportion of 22.95, 21.31, and 13.11% respectively. In conclusion, result of the present study showed that the proportion of livestock disease is high, and it affects the socioeconomic status of the local community in the study area as a result of mortality and production loss.
本研究旨在通过横断面调查确定新出现的和地方性家畜疾病的比例。
共有285只临床患病动物被送至一家兽医诊所，并根据病史、临床症状和简单的实验室诊断进行初步诊断。从该研究中可知，放线菌病（15.83%）、乳腺炎（15%）、蜱虫感染（10%）、呼吸道疾病（9.16%）和胃肠道寄生虫病（9.16%）在大型动物中确诊比例较高。巴氏杆菌病（38, 31%）、传染性脓疱病（12, 10%）、蜱虫感染（9, 0%）、螨感染（9, 10%）、绵羊和山羊痘（9, 10%）以及胃肠道寄生虫病（9, 17%）分别是绵羊和山羊中常见的疾病。在马属动物中，背部疼痛、流行性淋巴管炎和跛行分别占比22.95%、21.31%和13.11%。总之，本研究结果表明家畜疾病比例较高，并且由于死亡率和生产损失影响了研究地区当地社区的社会经济状况。
