A questionnaire designed to elicit information concerning prevalence, underlying causes, diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and complications of endotoxemia in horses was mailed to diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine and the American College of Veterinary Surgeons who identified themselves as equine practitioners. Gastrointestinal tract compromise, conditions associated with foaling, and grain overload were reported to be the most common clinical conditions that led to endotoxemia. Most of the respondents diagnosed endotoxemia on the basis of the following clinical and laboratory findings: neutropenia, leukopenia, hyperemic mucous membranes, tachycardia, and fever. Treatments used to attempt to prevent development of endotoxemia or to treat horses with endotoxemia included i.v. fluids and administration of broad-spectrum antimicrobials and flunixin meglumine.
一份旨在获取有关马内毒素血症的患病率、潜在病因、诊断、预防、治疗及并发症信息的调查问卷，被邮寄给了自认为是马科从业者的美国兽医内科学会和美国兽医外科学会的会员。据报告，胃肠道功能受损、与产驹相关的情况以及谷物超载是导致内毒素血症最常见的临床情况。大多数受访者根据以下临床和实验室检查结果诊断内毒素血症：中性粒细胞减少、白细胞减少、黏膜充血、心动过速和发热。用于试图预防内毒素血症发生或治疗患有内毒素血症马匹的治疗方法包括静脉输液、使用广谱抗菌药物和氟尼辛葡甲胺。
