Abstract

Avian chlamydiosis remains to be an important, in birds widely spread zoonosis. In the past 15 years in the Federal Republic of Germany 6133 cases in birds or aviaries officially were recorded, 88% in aviaries consisting of psittacines, 9% in pigeons and 3% in other bird species. Among all bird species psittacines are of greatest importance for human health. Therefore, public health control measures must concentrate on these species. For this purpose the longterm-treatment with tetracyclines in feed or by intramuscular injection has proved effective since chlamydial agents perfectly can be eliminated. But control of psittacosis by medication in the hands of laymen is problematical. Effectivity of medication depends on proper and careful performance. Therefore, if treatment is necessary due to state regulations, strict surveillance, including measuring of antibiotic levels in blood, by experienced veterinary public health personnel is mandatory.

摘要

禽衣原体病仍然是一种重要的、在鸟类中广泛传播的人畜共患病。在过去15年里，德意志联邦共和国官方记录了6133例鸟类或鸟类饲养场感染病例，其中88%发生在鹦鹉饲养场，9%发生在鸽子饲养场，3%发生在其他鸟类。在所有鸟类中，鹦鹉对人类健康最为重要。因此，公共卫生控制措施必须集中在这些鸟类上。为此，饲料中添加四环素或肌肉注射进行长期治疗已被证明是有效的，因为衣原体病原体能够被完全清除。但外行人用药控制鹦鹉热存在问题。药物疗效取决于正确和仔细的操作。因此，如果根据国家规定有必要进行治疗，必须由经验丰富的兽医公共卫生人员进行严格监测，包括测量血液中的抗生素水平。
