PRRS can cause --- in gestating pids
* neonates: diarrhea, recurrent fevers
* weaned: anorexic, cough, dyspnea, thumps, purple ear tips and tails from vasculits
* gestating sows: repro failure: abortion, mummies, early embryonic death
* boars: infertility due to poor sperm quality
177
Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE)
* caused by coronavirus
* +/- vomiting, diarrhea with curds of undigested milk
* biosecurity is key to prevention
* May be endemic (enzootic) with low mortality/morbidity or epizootic with near 100%
mortality/morbidity in piglets less than 10 days of age.
178
repro failure
179
lepto in pigs causes
* acute: fever, anorexia, hemolytic anemia, hemoglobinuria, jaundice and failure to grow
* Chronic: repro failure: late term abortions, mummies or weak piglets that die in a few days
* dams usually recover, and next litter is fine

pleuropneumonia
185
pleuropneumonia in pigs is caused by
actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae- gram negative coccobacillus
186
clinical signs of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae
* sudden onset of respiratory distress with open mouthed breathing
* frothy pink oral and nasal discharge
* lethargic, anorexic, fever
* pigs under 6 months are more affected, but some adults can show signs
* fibrinonecrotic and hemorrhagic lung lesions
187
clinical signs of atrophic rhinitis
* pigs 3-8 weeks of age
* sneezing, coughing, lacrimation
188
how is swine flu different from pleuropneumonia
* flu: affects pigs of all ages
* pleuropneumonia: younger pigs more affected but adults can be affected, **blood tinged** oral and nasal froth- open mouth breathing
189
high morbidity and low to mod mortality
190
what can cause GI ulcers in pigs

200
uncomplicated- short course and low death. Antibiotics can be given if concurrent bacterial infections
201
ingestion by humans can cause cysticercosis
202
what is taeniasis in humans
* humans eating infected pork with **taenia solium tapeworm**
* humans eating infected pork that is not cooked eating cysticerci. The cysticerci evaginte and attach to the small intestine. Adult tapeworms then devlop (taeniasis). This is the only way these tapeworms can complete their cycle. The tapeworms shed eggs which can be consumed by humans, but those eggs cannot complete their life cycle and turn in to tapeworms until they are consumed in cyst form. In humans, cysticerosis develops only when tapeworm eggs are ingested.
203
collect gestation and lactation feed samples for mycotoxin testing
204
lepto causes --- abortions
late term
205
parvovirus causes --- abortions in pigs
mummies
206
inject all remaining pigs with ceftiofur
207
what two things can cause polyserositis in 4 week old pigs
polyserositis: inflammation of multiple serous membranes in the body, such as the pleura and pericardium, leading to effusions.
* Strep suis or Glaesserella parasuis
208
Glasserella parasuis can cause --- in --- old pigs
* **polyserositis**: inflammation of multiple serous membranes in the body, such as the pleura and pericardium, leading to effusions.
* **sudden death**, polyarthritis, septicemia, high fever, CNS signs
* other pigs may appear normal
* 4-8 week old
* to stop outbreak Ceftiofur injections
